When i try to load a cia installed game thats around 3 months old or more my 3ds has a huge problem loading it. Especially my gba injected roms. It just tells me an error has occurred and to power off the console. The older they are the harder thay are to load for example:3 months has about a 50% chance to load 4 months has about a 30% chance to load and 5 months just wont load anymore. What happened. How do i fix it. If you need more info tell me i will provide but thats the jist of it

The thing is tho is that ive had this sd card for long over a year and its only doing this stuff recently
Is it full or close to it's max capacity? Anyway, you should back everything up and format it, then test it with h2testw software, If you haven't already done so. It should show if the sdcard is at fault or not.

    guys, if the first thing you eat for the day is in the afternoon, is that lunch or breakfast?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    lunch is food in the afternoon, sure, but breakfast is break fast, breaking your fasting
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    does it even matter?
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:

  • Skv0ra @ Skv0ra:
    as well as brunch
  • Skv0ra @ Skv0ra:
    grill chicken salad is IMO way better to start the day than wylk and all that sugar and carbs

    neat not to rely on the CDs or similar tho
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    If they could read games directly from it would've worth it more
  • Skv0ra @ Skv0ra:
    So, it can't/isn't a microSD input device?
  • Veho @ Veho:
    You would need to hack the Dreamcast to run games from the memory card instead of trying to read the disk drive.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Don't know if it's that hard dreamcast had no write protection and it's basically a ps1
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I guess you could make a bootloader that would just run off a CD and tell the console to read and run a game off of the memory card?
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    They could potentially get GDEMU (GD-ROM Emulator) to read from vmu like how ps1 has mx4iso
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Thing is, the Dreamcast was so easy to pirate I don't think anyone bothered to hack it.
