[Jet Set Willy]

Yeah, the site is often down.

Well that's no good. Shall I just keep trying?

[Jet Set Willy]

I bought mine from winsunx.

It hasn't cards for GBC.It is hard to find them.A utility called GB bridge does the trick.With this you can load GB\GBC roms in the F2A and play them on your GBA.

Thanks for the help, I just wanted to know because I would like to upload pokemon gold from my real GBC collection to my PC, change some of the sprites and text, then send it back to a gameboy cart so that I had my own personalized pokemon game. Would all that be possible?

No the GBC cardridges are not re-writable.
You can try to hack a rom and send it on a GBA flash card.

That was what i meant. Upload Pokemon Gold from my GBC collection, then hack it, then send it to a flash card. would it have to be a GBC flash card or would it work on a GBA one too?

Thanks for the help

Also I don't think Flash Advance Extreme and GB Bridge are on winsunx. It seems like it's written by someone who can't speak english too. All things like:-

Partial rewrite possible, made for outdoors gamer, no need to worry for lose save data

etc.

Just to check that FA extreme is the right thing before i actually get it (if i do get it), Flash Advance Extreme is the product that lets you upload real GBA games to your PC as ROMs. That right?

Thanks a lot, I'm new to ROM hacking and everything like that, and you've been a big help. Sorry i keep bothering you.

It would work with Flash 2 Advance card connected with GB Bridge.

I bought Flash 2 Advance from them.They don't have GB Bridge.It is true that they can't speak English well.

As far as I know this can be done with all GBA flash cards.I haven't tried it with mine though.

Ok -

Are Flash 2 Advance cards the rewritable flash cards that you need if you want to download ROMs to actual cartridges that can play on a real GBA?


I thought i needed Flash Advance Extreme, because that's the one with the usb cable, I don't know what flash 2 advance is.

As far as I know this can be done with all GBA flash cards.I haven't tried it with mine though.

But i wouldn't be doing uploading my games to the pc with flash cards, I'd be doing it with the game cartridges. Putting the real cartridges onto the PC as ROMs.

I'm getting a bit confused.

Yes.In fact trere are many kinds of them.
More info for each one on this shop : http://www.success-hk.com/pp/item_cate_lis...8D-54B0E82E2AB9
or this site http://www.gameboy-advance.net/flash_card/compare.htm
The Flash Advance Extreme is an old card.You should buy a newer one.

But i wouldn't be doing uploading my games to the pc with flash cards, I'd be doing it with the game cartridges. Putting the real cartridges onto the PC as ROMs.

As I said this can be done with probably all flash linkers but although I have lots of original GBA games I haven't tried it yet.

Thanks very much Belmont, I understand it now and I have the answers to my questions.
