What?

 

[Alpuy]

I never opened the virtual console,I don't know how it works, do we need a virtual console game?

You just need to buy and download any VC Gameboy game off the eShop to use this.

It seems easier to just use the emulators, what's the advantage of this?

You get to use Nintendo's official GB emulator, sleep mode works, better sound, some games work better then GameYob, etc.

...wow.

Aren't GB VC games like $2?

yep

This wouldn't work for GBA VC games (Nintendo 3DS Ambassadors), would it?

This will never work with GBA games because the VC and web browser need to be open at the same time.

I don't have GBA VC to try myself but from the sound of it, you can't have both GBA VC and web browser open at the same time.

I'll stick to GameYob then... simply because of FastForward

Edit: For the ones who don't know, GameYob HAS sleep mode. Just press home before closing your 3DS (no window will open or anything, but just press it - It works).

That's what I said...

Yes, I was explaining to them.

That's not sleep mode. The 3DS just turns off the screen and audio but it never enters sleep mode.

Infact game will still be running

Oh, you mean because of street/spotpass?
Uh... well, at least it wastes less battery if you need a quick pause or need to move to another place but don't want to turn it off or leave it open.
I rarely ever streetpass, but I mostly always need FastForward. For that I will always prefer GameYob.

It works with anything that browserhax works with normally. You do need a webserver and a dns server(to redirect yls8.mtheall.com to a local ip to increase stability, at least for sliderhax). Note that you can only inject up to 32 kb atm, but I do have plans to make splitting the rom possible to inject 32 kb at a time(it's just limitations of the hax itself). I basically just modified yellows8's existing ROP chain to inject data to the vc, and not run it.

Any way I could help getting this done quicker? I have an n3DS 10.1 to test

No, I mean the system continues running normally. The battery drains faster then the real sleep mode.
