Picked up an M3i Zero about a month ago, I'm using a Kingston Class 4 8GB card on it.

So far, I've got two games that won't load on it:

Final Fantasy III (Hangs before the beginning screen)
Dragon Quest V (just loops between two of the developer screens)

Anyone have any ideas why these two don't work? So far they're the only two I've encountered that I can't get running.

Also, does anyone know where I can get a full-size slot-2 GBA card for this? I've got the "man sized" NDS so I can't use the half-height ones that are around.

Since you got a M3 slot1, you only need to get a M3 GEP. It has interchangable shells, one of which is a GBA sized shell to use.

This is what it looks like:

As for the 2 games, I would say bad copies more like it.

Thanks for the info, I'll go snag one of those so I can play my GBA games without needing to haul around the cartridges.

That will allow me to store the GBA games on the M3i memory card, right?

As for the games:

I've tried several different copies, all of them do the same thing.

Maybe I should just pick up something that will let me pull the roms from my games directly,.....
