...He was answering the question on the previous post.

My experience with GBARunner2 is very sparse, I only tried it with a couple of games and I had issues, for example trying a romhack I did for FF1 Dawn of Souls showed me the game is unplayable because the overworld is broken. I looked at a compatibility list here and seems issues are common.

Having the possibility to use GBARunner2 is good to have but I would recommend any other way to play gba first. Specially if you're going to play modded games.

My recomendation for gpsp was ignored but that seems to play romhacks fine, mine work and the recently translated Chocobo Land works fine too. Pretty cool Fortune\Itadaki Street
spinoff.

In any case you would take less time trying the different options and see what you like than waiting for others to comment.

I did the NUSI method and it worked great. Took a minute tho with each individual rom hack lol thank you all for the help

GBARunner2 is alright, but it has imperfections where things like injects and open_agb_firm would not. GBARunner3 may end up fixing a lot of those problems and becoming the best way to play, but it's still really early in development.

Download the mGBA emulator for 3DS and load your patched ROM hacks on there.

There any way to convert too large GBA hacks like Pokemon ARC to a .cia?
