Hi,

I saw a pack with 100+ GBA games in cia format but it states that the games have to be installed to Sysnand and that they would not run in Emunand.

There's also a folder with what seems to be a couple of firmwares in CIA for O3DS & N3DS.

I very much dislike installing stuff in SysNand and especially a new firmware (I don"t want to screw up for good the usage of the Gateway card). So are these safe to use and what cautious steps shoud I be using in order for everything to go smoothly.

If you could spare a little explanation on why this is not running (I have not dared to even test it) in GW mode, I'd appreciate.

Thanks,

You have to run GBA titles in a CFW that supports patched AGB_FIRM and signature patching. To get AGB_FIRM patched see this thread. For help on CFW read the guide for the appropriate CFW for your system.

Thanks.

What app would you use to install the AGB_FIRM to SysNand ? Would a backup be able to recover if for some reason shit hit the fan ?

    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.

    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
