Help with Zelda - Four Swords on VisualBoyAdvance

This is my first post here.
Yay!

My problem is when I want to play Zelda The Four Swords on VisualBoyAdvance.
When I start the game, it tells me:

"Linking with other systems... Please wait a moment." <- Click to see screenshot.

Can I skip this somehow and just play "single player"?
If not, how can I play this game at all, since there is no Network compatible GBA emulator?

You can't play multiplayer games on an emulator...
Howeverin the save archive we have a save with the mutliplayer game completed.

Thanks for the info.
I can't download the save-file.
When I go to the save-archive and click on the link for Zelda - Four Swords, it just gives me the same page with all the savegames, but there's an error at the top.
It says:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/emuzone/www.emulator-zone.com/html/save_archive/index.php:3) in /home/emuzone/www.emulator-zone.com/html/save_archive/index.php on line 1681

Am I then to understand that Zelda - The Four Swords is a strictly multiplayer game?
This may sound stupid, but what's the point of having a rom of a game that can't be played?

EDIT: I just now realised that the rom also contains A Link to the Past.
Forgive my ignorance. :D

if the download doesnt work the send Lefteris_D a PM that says the link is no good.

isnt "a link to the past" a really old SNES game?

Thank you. It is done. :D

EDIT: Actually, NONE of the links in the save archive works for me.
I get the same "warning" every time. Maybe it's something on my computer?

Yes it is, but it was "re-released" with The Four Swords, so that people who never played A Link to the Past on the SNES
could play it on the GBA/GBC(I forget which).
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong guys.
I'm not completely up to date on my Nintendo history... :D

I just upgraded the script used for that page. I'll work on adding the add banners tomorrow after work, in the meantime you should be able to download just fine.

you can't. Four swords is designed to be multiplayer. Just use vbalink or no$gba to play multiplayer by yourself(which is boring, I find it easier to go round to my friend's house to play multiplayer)

i dont know how to download zelda four swords
How can you have trouble downloading it if your second question is about starting the game? You obviously have downloaded the game?

i dont know how to start the game... plizzz help?
Did you ready anything on this post? This is a mutliple player game, the one way to play it is by running more then one emulator and linking them. It is not a fun game to play if you are the only one playing it as its designed for 2 or more players.

If the future pleas do not bump 5/6 year old thread, especially if you dont intend to follow up on it.
