Homebrew zelda 2 won't sav with NESds

[imnotmatt429]

I played all the way to the 5th palace on zelda 2 adventures of link using the nesds.nds on my r4 card. when i die i click save and it brings me to the main menu and my sav file is there.

my problem is when i turn the DS off and turn it back on to play zelda 2, there are no save files. Is there a way to fix this?

You have to hit Save SRAM (or something similar, I'm not looking at it right this instant) in the nesDS menu after saving in-game (for all games, not just Zelda); this can be a bit tricky, though, as the touch screen controls in nesDS are notoriously unreliable. There is a tweaked version which uses button combos for a few important functions, you may want to try that; see this topic for details.
