good day, im just a newbie here. I have lots of concern regarding GBA VC injection on 3DS,
i keep on searching the net to properly load pokemon games (RSE/FRLG/mystery dungeon red/RS pinball)
on 3ds directly from home menu, but because the GBA VC of the 3ds doesnt support the save structure of those games (128kb) lots of issue arises
there are some patches, here:
https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-fix...ba.433266/
but some problems still remain.
another thing is, once the game is patched, the save data of that game would not be compatible on the unpached game.
for the people who plays the game on both handheld emulator and on a pc emulator,
and its a hassle if the save file is not compatible on each other...
It comes to my mind that there are several GBA emulator on 3ds (mGBA & retroarch).
i tested both on 3ds and for me, mGBA have more features at the same time have a cleaner look...
unlike the retroarch, the bottom screen have lots of logs...
but still the question remains in my mind if it is possible to modify mGBA.cia
change its title ID and redirect a certain GBA file that is located on the 3ds sd card
what i mean is this: currently the mGBA has a title ID of 1a1e
then modify the mGBA multiple times, change the title ID:
mGBA with title ID 9999 - directly detects a gba file on 3ds sd card: eg pokemonruby.gba
mGBA with title ID 9998 - directly detects a gba file on 3ds sd card: eg pokemonsapphire.gba
mGBA with title ID 9997 - directly detects a gba file on 3ds sd card: eg pokemonmyterydungeonred.gba
so there will be 3 installation of mGBA with different game to load.
just a suggestion... how bout make a GBA forwarder using mGBA engine with a PC gui like the one on NDS forwarder

hope its possible in future...
thanks and have a nice day
