Hey there!

I'm new to the forum, made an account today for a problem I've been having.

Recently I refurbished my old GBA, gave it the works, fully kitted out, and I picked up an EZ Flash Omega DE. I loaded it up with games, but Pokemon Crystal has been giving me problems. It's corrupted, the text boxes are covered in squares and in black. The ROM works perfectly well in mGBA, and it's the only game I have problems with. Other GBC games (Super Mario, Kirby, Shantae) work perfectly fine. Can anyone help solve this issue with instructions? I haven't found anything that I understand online.

Thanks for your time, everyone!

Are you running the v0.5 build of Jaga's Goomba Color core? It has fixes for Crystal so it will play properly. Grab the ezode file from this releases page.

    the mixed reviews is due to review bombing, because a chunk of regions are excluded/banned from buying it now

    so the players are review bombing as response to sony doubling down on their so-called policy

  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    i gotta say, the steam deck isn't a bad deal, even if you get a used one, you have options to get it serviced and the parts are also available through ifixit
