    Celebration over I'm afraid I've downloaded one game, Drawn to life, but when I tried to download another game and tried to move it to my games file but it said error and came up with three different errors which were really complicated, I'll look tomorrow and see what it says and copy it then paste it then post it but do you have any suggestions for now? Don't worry if you don't as it is 9:18 p.m! If you don't I'll sort it out tomorrow, bye!!!

    Sorry I'll download it later and tell you.

    Hi everyone, it doesn't come up with error now which is good, but when I download a game it downloads just as a nds file which is what normally happens but I dont now how to get a save file as well. I need to get this done by 4:00 p.m as my friend is coming over then.

    What game are you trying?

    It should auto save.


    Just use the ingame save file-if it's not saving then it's something I'm not sure about.

    It does it with all games apart from the first game which I managed to make an nds file and a save file

    When you first run the game, it should ask if you want to make a save file. Do you have enough space on your microSD card? They're 512KB each.

    And if your game fails to create the save file properly, then it's likely a compatibility issues with your card. Take a look in the Common Issues thread https://www.romulation.org/forum/index.php?topic=1462.0 under Save Issues, and Arm7 patching.

    Since it creates the save file before loading the rom, compatibility shouldn't be an issue. If it creates the save file but doesn't save, then you may have some compatibility problems.

    Well, it's hard to tell exactly what is going on since all he/she says is "They don't work, they gave me errors, now they don't give me errors, how do I get save files".

    It doesn't really tell us much, could be that the game didn't load and just said "Cannot locate save file" or one of the other generic save file failure errors and the user just assumes that means they need to download a save file.

    I guess so. I just made the literal interpretation.

    It hasen't done that so far, which is good!

    It's fine now because it created the SAVE files, but just one tiny prob. On Mario Party 2 it downloads as a Z64 file how do I change it to a NDS file?

    Don't worry everyone I know now that you are only meant to download the NDS ones
