Homebrew GBARunner2

[Pk11]

Is there a compatibility list for GBARunner? Considering getting a DSi specifically for GBA/DS play but don't know if its worth it.

There is on the GBAtemp wiki, GBARunner2/DSi_3DS_Compatibility_List if you're using with Unlaunch or just the main GBARunner2 page if using a flashcard.

Yikes. Thought compatibility was a bit better than that. Thanks for the links.

I was mostly concerned about accuracy compared to real hardware.

This is by far the best way to play GBA on a DSi. As a hypervisor it has less latency than traditional emulation but many features are still unsupported. On lite/phat you can get basically real hardware performance with an EZflash and on 3DS with VC injects, that's where to go if you are a stickler for accuracy.

Tried searching for a bit, but didn't find anything: is there any way to have either sleep mode in Gbarunner or return to Twilight Menu + + in OG3DS so I can use sleep mode there? DIdn't want to leave to the 3DS menu every time I put my system to sleep (which is a lot).

I was mostly concerned about accuracy compared to real hardware.

I just tried it for the first time yesterday playing FireRed and was very surprised by its accuracy - and I'm very picky. The database said about audio and visual glitches - seriously, other than a slight sound when saving it seems almost like 100%. It's pretty great and I'm honestly liking it more than the official GBA injection.

Just saying your mileage may vary. Try giving it a shot first, if you may. Can say I'm surprised.

Does the latest build work on Cyclo DS + DS Phat combo?
I heard there's no YSMenu for CycloDS to help boot GBARunner2.

You could try TWiLight Menu++. It has GBARunner2 built in.

Perfect, I'll try here first then

I have an issue with GBARunner 2 in DSi (EU 1.4.5). My games won't show up in the menu on the bottom screen

Does anyone have any ideas? I've tried getting two bios files, putting it in different directories (root and /gba).
