It's cheaper to buy a GBA + flashcard than a GP2X, so that would be a pretty dumb "sole reason" to buy a GP2X![]()
Finally someone else thinks the same way I doreiboul posted on Oct 15 2006 at 12:38 PM said:I think he's talking about the new Vba2x released on the archive, but there was no news![]()
Anyway, GBA games on GP2X would rock

What about other emulators, DivX & homebrew? Off course if you play ONLY GBA, you're better off buying a GBA, but even then, GP2X will have some advantages (save states, bigger screen) when a fullspeed, compatible GBA emulator will comeh34r:
Who cares about buying a Sega Nomad with those awesome MD Emulators on GP2X? or GameBoy? GameGear, etc![]()
The latest version expects to be fed the rom from the command line or through something like selector or GMenu. I also had to remove spaces from filenames.WhizzBang posted on Oct 15 2006 at 11:16 AM said:Here is a link: http://archive.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,1,0,0,5,1304
I just tried it but I only got a black screen. There is no readme in the archive, so I may have set it up wrong.

So does the M3.Orkie posted on Oct 15 2006 at 04:14 AM said:Depends which cartridge you buy for the GBA - the SuperCard supports save states...
Uh, yes they do. In the M3 Game Manager, you have to enable real time saves when you patch the rom for the M3. Otherwise it just does normal saving.pcklee123 posted on Oct 15 2006 at 10:18 AM said:I have an M3 and my Mum has supercard. They support saves but not save states. i.e you cant save any time you want like you could on an emulator.
