Hacking Can i Dump Gba Roms Using My R4?

[rhyguy]

Is that even possible?

That's an interesting question. I don't believe there is any homebrew that'll let you do that. I guess most people don't see a point. To use a GBA ROM you'd need a GBA flashcart and most carts had a reader that could dump ROMs anyway.

True, but I'd like to know if this is possible too. I like to backup my original games to roms. I already did this with my DS games, but I still have a library of GBA games that need to be backed up...

I don't know if you have a Slot 2 cart, but if you do this is possible. Download Chishms "cart save" here: http://chishm.drunkencoders.com/SendSave/cart_save.zip

Put it on your Slot-2 cart, lauch it and follow the instructions

The cart should support DLDI though.

Technically it's possible, but AFAIK there's no software like that available.

i heard GBAldr can dump gba roms, however it always dumps to 32mb so the roms need to be trimmed afterwards.
