Homebrew RELEASE VBA-next for Switch(works 4.1)

[Cha0tic]

I know some gba emulators place GB and GBC games as well does this as well? Or just gba?

Edit - Found my answer no gb/gbc.

Woah, it runs PokemonHacks perfectly, THANK YOU very much for this emulator

 

[morrison22]

No-intro or Good set? Which is preferred by you guys for this emu?

Fantastic work on this! It works perfectly! I have a quick question though - I am using VBA Next 0.6 with the cheats option available however, it appears that regardless of which kind of cheat I enter, it doesn't work. I press the X Button to open the menu, select "Cheat", then enter the Gameshark code. I then enter a description for that code and press OK. I ensure it is marked as Active and return to the game but it doesn't take effect. I have tried numerous codes from multiple Gameshark websites, even tried Action Replay and Code Breaker codes but nothing works. Am I missing something?

Man this emulator is a blast. The only issue I've had with it so far is that Kingdom Hearts doesn't boot and freezes everything. Have to force the switch to power down. Has anyone else run into this? I saw someone else couldn't boot KH, but they couldn't boot anything else so I don't think our issue is related. Or... Do I just have a bad KH rom...?

Does VBA-M support linking yet? If it does will it work with switch?

VBA-M does support it, but (retroarch) VBA-next doesn't and therefore VBA-next switch also.

Where did you find a version with a cheat menu?

So this hasn’t had any updates to the git for almost 3 weeks now. Has this stopped being worked on?

It's only a matter of time before we have emulators up the walls on the Switch. Honestly it's amazing how well this works this early in the console's life.

In a few years we'll probably have much better UI design both through Nintendo official updates and cfw changes and wont recognize what we currently see as the homebrew scene. For sure enjoy what we have now, but this isn't the final form by a long shot.

Very true. This one works very well as it is. My biggest concern is finding an emulator that is better and nicer in the future and not being able to transfer my saves.

As far as I know save files are often very universal between emulators.
Atleast my Pokemon Emerald save file works flawlessly with the new emulator, which wasn't much of an surprise, since it's also based of VBA-M(but another derivation, which supports a ton of features VBA-next lacks).

I could maybe see save states as an issue, but saves should be universal. The save file is generated by the game and the difference between emulators is more likely to be where it writes and reads from. Format though was determined by Nintendo.

Anyone know how to fix the magic effects not showing in Golden Sun with this emulator?

 

[Nerdtendo]

If this is still being worked on? It would be great if there was a fix for the menus docked. If you have a lot of files, it won't show all of them because of the shrunken screen.

They're still there, keep scrolling, it just weirdly cuts them off even though it looks like the UI keeps going

I've noticed. It's just very hard to find things
