I've been playing some GBA games on the 3DS and it plays them great, but sometimes I'd prefer to carry on with the same game using a PC or Raspberry Pi. However I have no idea where or in what format the GBA saves are in on a 3DS.
You can backup&restore saves manually:
https://3ds.hacks.guide/godmode9-usage#backup-gba-vc-saves
(This is tedious if you want to process many games at a time)
Or use TurdPooCharger's GodMode9 script "GBAVCSM"

^^^^^^^^
Make sure to read the instructions.
========================
The saves from GBA Virtual Console worked for me on mgba emulator (desktop version) as well as on retail cartridges.

One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better. -

I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs

@

I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G. -

Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
