R4DS program to run gba games?

any program or way to allow my R4 to play GBA games without a solt-2 card? ???
gimme lnks and walkthroughs to set it up if there is

 

So far, its impossible, I'm sorry.

GBC games on the other hand, can be played without a Slot-2 card.

 

how so?

 

For Gameboy Colour games, get the program called "Lameboy" and put it into your Slot-1 device. Voila.

 

He said 'allow his R4 to play GBA games'. That.s impossible. You need other devices to do that.

 

Yes, I already answered his question in my first post here I was then telling him that GBC games CAN be played on the Slot-1. He then asked how so I answered him. :

Unless, by his "how so?", he meant, "why can't GBA games be played?"... Well, the answer is... DS programming I guess. No way around it if Nintendo specifically made a special slot on the DS JUST for GBA games.

Yes, its late, I'm tired, I can't sleep. I wake to wake up early tomorrow. :'(

 

Awww

 

slot 1 cards cant play gba games because the slot 2 interface reads faster than slot 1...thats why you CAN play slot one games from slot 2.
Sorry

 

Is there a slot-2 device that complements the R4, that allows for GBA gameplay?

 

Any slot-2 will work with the R4, since the R4 can be used as a pass-me device, and the reason slot-1 can't play GBA games is because it has no RAM.

 

I suggest the EZ V (3 in 1) expansion slot 2 device.

You can use that to play GBA games using your R4 as a slot 1 pass-me. You also get

More ram so DS opera browser will work
rumble feature

Its about $22...so if you have some money to burn, I suggest you buy it.

 

Why are we trying to share info on how to use slot 1 to play GBA games. The GBA plays GBA games. If you don't have a GBA why don't you play NDS games or use slot-2.

 

They could make an emulator but everyone will ask the team who makes it....why?

 

lol sorry dude.. right now i am pretty 100% sure they don't have a way.. you can try the slot 2 style, but it will cost more money.. T_T

 

Sorry for stealing this thread but can I get a link to the site to get Lameboy? (>?.?)>

 

CycloDS has a beta firmware out that "allows you to play GBA games" through its GUI but still requires a slot 2 device like EZ 3 in 1 blah blah blah, can't remember the rest of the info, don't care.

I'd rather play GBA games via visualboyadvance.

 

You can get Lameboy here. http://lameboy.nutki.com/

The CycloDS v1.4 beta does promise that, however it's nothing special as nearly all Slot 1 flashcarts can boot from a Slot 2 flashcart.

 

I guess what I'm trying to say is that you can have GBA games on your slot-1 and just click the rom and play it.
No need to boot from your Slot-2 at all.

I still don't understand why Slot-1s can't play GBA games by itself.
Why would a slot-1 developer leave that feature out of their product?

 

Because of this reason, GBA games can't function properly on Slot 1 as it uses different hardware, so it's basically impossible to run GBA games on a Slot 1 device.
