Flashcarts are their own hardware, and as such emulating them would require... emulating them. Specifically. The kernel is a normal GBA ROM in many ways, though. For those of us with Game Boy Players, Game Boy Interface can also take screenshots...
Just the other day I was wondering if there was a GBA homebrew that let you send multiboots (fun fact - the official name is joyboot - or joycarry in Japanese) and now we have libraries for linkups. I find it funny how we understood Gamecube...
Original Game Boy and Game Boy Color games only run on an EZ Flash ODE using the Goomba Color emulator. This emulator only copies the emulated game's save file to FRAM when you press L+R to open the in-game menu. Then the EZ Flash kernel copies...
It's not exclusive to the GBA; a lot of old LAN netcode has extremely low latency tolerance. Just look at how Mario Kart Double Dash handles netplay versus how MKWii does: or the Xbox version of Halo 1 versus the original Halo 2. The games were...
Maybe. But my desire was more for a utility with DLDI support that can send arbitrary files. IIRC, Goomba handles its multiboot in a similar way to official games - by embedding the executable within its own ROM.
To clarify, this isn't about official multiboots; those are as simple as with an original cartridge. This is about homebrew ones, and specifically about using a GBA flashcart to host a multiboot that it can send to slaves. I already know about...
It seems the repository is down, and I can't find the file anywhere. Wayback machine didn't help either. Does anyone have the file backed up?
Edit: I have obtained a copy of the software. This is the last build that was made available. I...
The NES Classic games specifically attempt to save to SRAM, and softlock themselves with an error message if they succeed. Less sophisticated flashcarts need an anti-antipiracy patch.
This was almost three years ago? Damn. I checked around and I really do have a rare chipset here. (An awful pity that I don't have a broadband adapter for the Gamecube to start debugging this)
It has bankswitching, but not in any known way - and...

Update: I reinstalled all the cIOS (turns out he also never did Bootmii or Priiloader, so I did them too) and now it works perfectly with all 3 drives. Thank you all for the help!!
I'm fairly certain that Mario Kart Wii uses a specialist patch that basically allows for the server to hotpatch anti-cheat fixes into the game at runtime. I usually run CTGP when I play MKWii, so I don't know how well USB Loader GX works with it...
I could be wrong but I don't believe that Devo writes data to the Wii remote. I didn't fully RE that section, but I believe it's a hash of some serial/other unique info only present on 1st-party Wii remotes (includes Wii Motion Plus remotes). The...
Because Wii disc drives last forever and never break and all Wii U or Family Wii owners have a backwards compatible Wii on them at all times.
And it's not like GameCubes can dump GameCube games.
The creator of Devolution is extremely talented...
The need to verify the legit disc first is just douchey. @JuanBaNaNa is right, it's just nonsense to require the original disc to boot the backup... Makes the homebrew only useful as a proof of concept tech demo, at best. Glad someone finally...
I've never had to do that due to owning a PAL Wii (I only use Swiss to make Crystal Chronicles run in 576p because I have it on disc)
But there is an alternative Wii-mode loader to Nintendont. Devolution. Pre-dating Nintendont, it has a few key...
