In 5420 ROMs, 82 games could not use the softreset function and 130 games could not use the RTS fuction.



If there are omissions in my test list, please let me know. Thanks a lot.


We are work on it. We found a way may solve the DSi game compatibility. The NDS games use 4MB memory, but DSi games use 8MB. So we should modify the game patch program of memory use. It seems easy but truly a big work.



I’m afraid that we can’t fix the game compatibility when the new Sakura released. We must release a new Sakura version as quick as possible for users which have high GUI demanding. But I believe that we will continue to release new version soon.

Tests with new Version 1.49 3rd are in work!

New Mail !

Thanks very much for your information.
Game testing is a very hard and tedious work. You needn't to do that
otherwise it may affect your interesting for the game. I think the best way
is collect information from users all over the world. The main testing
responsibility can be done by us. And users can feedback problems to verify
and improvement.
I'm very grateful for your kind help. We will strive to improve product
functionality and performance.

If you find new Game-Bugs than Report!
Merry Christmas

Here's another bug.

Professor layton and the diabolical box crashes and locks up on the last puzzle when the microphone tries to turn on.

I tried 3 times and it froze at that exact moment every time. Had to switch to YSM3 to complete the game.

Picross 3D doesn't seem to have the right save size or something. Once you download enough packs over wifi to fill the cart about half way, you can't play them anymore, and you get an error that your save file could not be read.

 

[manu-m3]

@Artik:Yeah,thanks for your test, but they know this bug!

Yes Picross 3D have a bug,Thanks i will send GBalpha this Bug tonight!

[manu-m3]

[Gaboros]

I think the newest R4i RTS and the iTouch has the same game compatibility. If this right you can add Golden Sun (E) to the bugged list. Only the (U) version working.

 

[temp4746]

Proffessor layton 3 Gives me a black screen on this version compared to the previous one.
I'm using the USA Venom rom. (This rom is supposedly pre-patched)

To Bad, I thought I was finally going to get to play some new games, but since I'm still playing this one I'll have to wait some more.
So dissappointing.

 

[manu-m3]

Yes,Gaboros you are right,but this Game-Bug is in the Official List from GBalpha !(First Post Spoiler)
@temp4746:And Professor Layton too,you must make a Ap-fix you can find it on DPGVideos for example!

@Gaboroso you mean the R4iPT form here: http://www.r4ipt.com/R4iPt/ENG/downloads.htm ?

I have added Galactic Taz Ball *MULTi4* (U) to the Bug-List !
