So I'm emulating FF6 Advance on my New N3DS XL that has a few QoL patches installed, and everything was working fine, until I got to the part where you have to defend the esper on Narshe mountain from Kefka. I get to the Moogle in the dark background screen, and after he's done talking, it just stays on that screen, just the Moogle and the black background with the sounds of wind as well. I'm not sure what to do. I tried deleting the game and reinstalling it and injected my save that I backed up and same issue persists. I'd rather not start all over again, and if it's one of the patches, I don't know which one.

Are you using a Jap/USA rom or a European one? The Japanese and American versions of the game on GBA had a lot of strange bugs that got fixed in the European version. In saying that it's a bug I haven't heard about so it maybe one of the QoL patches you have applied.

It's the European rom, so it might be from one or more of the QoL patches that's causing the bug. I'll be upset cause then I might either have to start over or find a save file that stops up to that point in the game online and I'm not sure a specific save file for that exists.

Try using an emulator on your computer (or Rpi, or smartphone, or whatever) to get past that point. Then inject the save file once you can save again. Or even Retroarch on the n3ds if you have nothing better.

That's a good idea. I'm using visualboyadvance m to do this, so how do I skip or move forward past the screen? What option is that to do so?

Ok I ran it in one of the emulators and I got these 2 error codes in the logs:

[GAME ERROR] GBA I/O: Read from write-only I/O register: 0C4
[GAME ERROR] GBA I/O: Read from write-only I/O register: 0D0

Not sure how to fix these.

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
