This is why I have a huge grudge against Datel.
So about a year ago, I purchased my Action Replay MAX DUO. For the most part, it worked fine (I did have to do some sodering before it would work with some games, though). However, recently, when I tried backing up a save from Pokemon Pearl (to use it with Pokesav), the device didn't recognize the save type.
Naturally I was surprised, so I gave Datel an e-mail about it. They gave me an unreleased version of the 1.07 firmware. Flashing the new firmware did not work either, so I told them so. Then the person said "well we don't manufacture this product anymore, so we can't support it." Then guess what they do? They say that they're going to release a new product that does this successfully, and recommend that I buy it.
Wow, they trick me into buying this thinking it would work with Pokemon, and now they tell me that it won't, then they say I have to buy this new thing to do what the old one promised...
So am I a hopeless cause? Is there any known way to get around this error?
(If anyone wants this new 1.07 firmware [which does not work with Pokemon], I've uploaded it here)
