Gaming Fire Emblem 7 glitch

[Okami Wolfen]

You plant a mine, and when an enemy walks on, you turn the GBA off and on, then you resume the chapter, and you have full control of your enemies for that turn.

This happens later on in the game, in the first Fire Emblem released in the west.

My question is, would this glitch work on an emulator?

 

[Kaos]

It should. It's taking advantage of the fact that the game autosaves after everything you do in order to prevent save scumming. Just quit the emulator and reload and it should work fine.

Just what I was thinking, mate.

I really love emulation. Translating one com[uter's code so another computer can understand it.

Bloody brilliant.

Now I'm curious about the Zelda OoT crooked cartridge glitch... Now THAT depends on actual physical hardware.

Maybe it would be possible to emulate crooked cartridge by manually setting parts in memory to make unaccessible, emulating the cartridge's position in the console.
