Will it help only with games that use to be troublemaker or is there new features that justify re-injecting games that work fine already?

If the game works already, then I'd just leave it. The only new thing is better save support for games that didn't save correctly before. Just keep in mind that Pokémon games could get corrupted once you beat the Elite 4, so I'd go ahead and replace those if you have one injected, unless you're using a patch that's designed to prevent corruption with the old save restrictions.

Hey @Asdolo! I registered just to request a beta link to New Super Ultimate Injector for 3DS. I'm fighting with these Super Mario Advance ROMs, and it sounds like you've got the fix! Thanks very much for sharing your work with us. =)

Just as a general question with GBA VC, maybe it applies to the new injector, but could you do link trades wirelessly like in Pokemon? Or you need some patch to enable that?

Injected GBA games are run with hardware, rather than a software emulator like other virtual console systems. This same hardware disables all wireless features while running a GBA game, meaning that no injected GBA game can ever use link or wireless adapter features.

The only possibility is a GBA emulator with wireless features built-in, but I haven't heard of one being made yet.

Maybe Nintendo is working on one

Because when you're the developer, you're allowed to release code how you want to. =)
I can't speak for Asdolo, nor do I claim to know his reasons to not post this beta to everyone, but I wouldn't want to release something that could lead to potential mass misunderstandings (errors, failure to inject, saving problems, supposed console bricks, if that's even possible) without some proper testing from a small group. I'm not implying the users of these forums are all idiots, mind you, but from what I've read around, some problems are assumed to be on the developer's side instead of a user's mistake.
That said and done, I hope this new injector works fine and can be released as soon as possible, without many issues.

What could an injected bad GBA game do other than not work at all?

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
