Tested with Soundbranch Version 2017/01/05:

Final Fight ONE (E): I played through the first Area. Full Speed. Good Audio. The Sounds generated by the z80 chip are missing. Some Gfx Glitches. Very Playable.

Gekido Advance (E): Full Speed. Some Slowdown during Cutscenes. Audio is very slow, stuttery and has some Noise. Better turn it off. Some Gfx Glitches. Very Playable.

Shining Soul (U): I fought some Monsters in the first Section of the Game. Full Speed. Good Audio with some stuttering. Some Gfx Glitches. The Screen is busy with loading the Area. Very Playable.

Shining Soul 2 (E): I defeated the Enemy in the Intro Battle. Full Speed. Good Audio with some Noise and stuttering. Some Gfx Glitches. The Screen is busy with loading the Area. Very Playable.

The Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past (E): I rescued Zelda. Full Speed. Good Audio. Sometimes the Audio becomes distorted. Switch to the Menu and the Audio returns to normal. Some Gfx Glitches. Very Playable.

The Legend of Zelda - The Minish Cap (E)&(U): Sram patching required. In both Versions the Game freezes during the Introcutscene. Good Audio with some Noise and stuttering. Some gfx Glitches. Unplayable.

Kudos to you Gericom! We already have a lot Games that are fully playable.

SNESADvance _: white screen

It's possible you're on a really outdated version. Please update GBARunner2.

I see that you're making your own compatibility list, hence why there's some untested entries.
Any chance you can put this in a Google Spreadsheet, instead of keeping on posting the list here whenever there's updates?

Also, as stated before, please update GBARunner2, as some of the issues you mentioned are already fixed.

Hi!

I played legend of zelda The minish cap on 3DS GBARunner 2 and I want to import save file on PC GBA emulator, but it's not working..

Does the save file has the problem??? (It's only working on 3DS)

(Sorry for bad english...I did my best)

Which emulator are you using?

I'm using mGBA and VBA!

Heya! I relized the save file I attatched before was wrong.

My every gba rom file and save file's name are Korean and I guess system reads every korean letter as same thng, so it saved as wrong name.

And I changed to english name but still I can't use on PC emulator.

so... I'm re-attaching save file.

l look forward to hearing form you!

The TWLMenu++ Settings are irrelevant.
That's the first time I've heard of this issue. Not sure if there's any fix yet.
In the meantime, I suggest running the DS version of the game.

Why do you keep posting about PocketNES, when you're just getting the same white screen issue?
