    Hi someone,

    Have a little problem when I am extracting RAR fiels (only happens with Mario games).

    Normally they extract as NDS files, but these games are somehow extracting as gba files even though I hadn't loaded any different patches. Can I change these to nds or do I need something else?

    Thanks

    They are extracting as GBA files because they are GBA games.
    If you want NDS games, download NDS games.

    The RAR file is just a container, it has any file you put into it. The file had to be an NDS game to start with for it to be an NDS game in the end.

    If you want to play the GBA games, you can use a pretty easy to run emulator like this:

    (it is an emulator for your PC, not your NDS).
