Discussion A List of GBA games that run on Switch

Harvest Moon - Friends of Mineral Town seems to work greatly, saves work, no visual glitch, sounds is great too, no framerate drop.

 

Also, Super Mario World works perfectly fine

 

Super Monkey Ball Jr. and Crash Bandicoot - The Huge Adventure both run perfectly, although the framerate is very poor in SMBJ
Oh yeah, and DOOM has a major glitch, the controls don't work for some weird reason...

 

Alright, Mother 1+2

For the Mother 1 side of things:
Audio issues, no transitions, saving does work

Mother 2:
Audio issues, the game glitches when transitions are supposed to show up, saving does work

 

Seems like KH:COM can handle pretty well the saves (at least it didn't crashed when I saved). Still, I'll use the save states. It's fair more usefull here than the normal save xD

 

I'd update it for you, but here goes

Semi Working
MegaMan Battle Network 1
MegaMan Battle Chip Challenge

Not Working
Mega Man Battle Network 2
Mega Man Battle Network 3 Blue
Mega Man Battle Network 3 White
Mega Man Battle Network 4 Red Sun
Mega Man Battle Network 4 Blue Moon
Mega Man Battle Network 5 Team ProtoMan
Mega Man Battle Network 5 Team Colonel
Mega Man Battle Network 6 Cybeast Falzar
Mega Man Battle Network 6 Cybeast Gregar
The same goes for the virtual console counterpart to all the games.

 

Update: saves working perfect.

 

Are you sure that those games doesn't work? I know that at least mbn 5 and 6 works fine on the pc version.

 

They'll load on the emulator, but they're completely unplayable.
Severe slow downs, maybe 5 frames per second.

And PC version? Enlighten me because I'd love to have these working.

 

Yes! MMBN1 runs fairly well with frame dips in the overworld, but the battles are completely fine and run normal.
Battle Chip Challenge was having trouble saving but had no frame dips at all. Almost completely playable apart from the lack of save support (That could just be my issue though)

 

Oh, I thought they meant running Linux on Switch and having vba run that way. (Theoretically possible) I'm only talking for the switch emulation as of now.
All these games run flawlessly on my PC.


EDIT:
You can "play" all of them (I slogged through the intro to ALL the games) and after the 3rd intro fight every one of the games crash.

 

Tom & Jerry Tales (E)

• Some graphical glitches
  • Several sprites are black for example, e.g. Jerry
  • Other sprites are misplaced in the incorrect layers (e.g. Jerry's blueboard in the main menu is overlaying him)
• Very minor audio lags

Also, several games have very minor glitches during transitions (e.g. fade-in/fade-out).
