    I have been trying to play Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers Of Tme AND Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers Of Darkness but everytime I save, the game deletes the "corrupted" data. What`s the problem?

    I`m not sure but I`ve been downloading ROMs from this website and all of them work just fine. I can play and save them. These two ROMs are the only ones I am having problem with

    these two roms are also two of our newest, and you'll often find that newer games require a firmware update to work properly (or indeed to work at all). Sometimes, if the newest firmware still doesn't work, you just have to wait for a newer firmware to be released.

    Hello! I'm playing the Time on the latest No$GBA emulator, 2.6a, but I can't seem to save. I keep writing snapshots, but when I load it, it's corrupted. Help? Hehe.

    No$GBA doesn't handle save states very well, find out which backup media (save type) setting works and use in game save.

    I don't really understand what you mean, sorry new here. hehe. I write snapshots, and it saves as a No$GBA Snapshot. the extension is .SNA.
    Do you mean that I should just try in-game saves? Does it keep the data even though it's only an emulator?

    Different NDS games use different types of media to store the in-game saves, and you need to tell No$GBA what type of media your game uses. You do this by selecting the 'backup media' type in No$GBA options. Unfortunately, it takes trial and error to determine which backup media is correct, so you have to chose one, play the game, save (using in game save), then reset the game and try to load the save. If it doesn't load, you need to start again with a different setting for backup media. keep doing this until you find one that works.

    Yes, in-game saving is best, as Snapshots tend to make the ROM image crash with NDS games when you load or save them.

    Hi again. Thanks for the speedy replied everyone!!! really appreciate it. =) btw, mine does have an auto feature, but when I load based on that, the rom-image crashes.

    oookayyy... all the settings don't work. hahaha. the 512kb ones just crash the rom-image, and when I try loading the rest, it is a freeze screen that loads. Can't play a thing. hahaha. thanks anyway. +) I'll try to figure it out sloooowly. =)
