Hacking Sonic 3 & Knuckles on jEnesisDS

[Deliverance]

Hi everyone, first i must thank you the whole site which is awesome ! It helped me very often with my flashcards (M3i Zero and Supercard DSTwo).

Now my question, does someone had succeeded to make Sonic 3 & Knuckles work on jEnesisDS ? The game won't load on my cards...

Thank you in advance for your replies !

If memory serves me correct S&K 3 doesn't work with with jEnesis. I'd suggest you get the Sonic classic Collection instead.

Lock-on games don't work in jEnesisDS because the roms are too large and can't be loaded into the memory. So in short, you can't play Sonic the Hedgehog 2 & Knuckles, or Sonic 3 & Knuckles. This also effects some of the larger roms.

Sonic Classic Collection for the DS is your only option.

There was a way of getting it to work by getting a patch so you can cut down its size to 4MB.

Like Sonic Classic Collection is such a bad thing. It's a collection of the Genesis Sonic games and you don't need a whole emulator to play them.

Yeah, but the framerate is halved so that it maintains stability. I'd take 60FPS any day, regardless of the work.

Original Poster: Yeah, this website was something I made in my spare time. Glad you like it!

Pretty much, but the purists insist it's not perfect because - *long list of reasons, most of which you would never notice*

Honestly, if you can grab it on the cheap (free is cheap, if you get what I mean), it's a nice little collection of some of the greatest platformers of the 16-bit era on the go, which is always a good thing.

And a bunch of crappy stock artwork that's been on about... three or four collections prior to this, but nobody cares about that.
