Sorry if this has been asked before, but the search function is not working on phrases, only single keywords, so I'm having trouble finding the answer.
Just got an M3 mini-SD Perfect for my kid's GBA SP. I grabbed the 1003 (to-date) US releases and loaded a bunch onto the mini-SD card. Just about everything I tried appears to work fine with the exception of (this should be no surprise) Pokemon Saphire, Ruby, and Emerald which all load into a white screen of death.
0898 - Pokemon - Sapphire Version (U).gba
0907 - Pokemon - Ruby Version (U) (v1.0).gba
1986 - Pokemon - Emerald Version (U).gba
I tried the patch from nofrills and that did not work. Any suggestions? The M3 is supposed to support the RTC (real time clock) so I'm puzzled.
Are there any other games troublesome on the M3? These are pretty much the ones I anticipated would present a challenge.
BTW, I extracted most of these ROMs out of an Xbox Xiso file found on demonoid. I don't know if there was a specific patch already applied to these files so that they would work with the emulator for the xbox, and no, I have not tried anything through emulation. Is there a preferred source for clean unpatched ROMs to start with?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
TIA!
