    Question gba advanced and micro help!

    i've been asked for a solution to play homebrew and roms on the 2 above handheld consoles and i'm well aware of the r4, supercard etc for the nds, but is there an equivalent for these retro consoles?

    any info would be much apreciated.

    thanks,

    gazza

    most of the slot2 DS cards can handle GBA games, although compatibility isnt brilliant.
    Back in the gba days you could get flashcards with 256 - 512meg of memory on that you programmed with your PC, they had near perfect compatability. Mite be hard to find one now tho. Mine was called a flash2advance.

    ive just seen this, its basically the same thing as a flash2advane, but very cheap, the only downside is that you need a DS with a slot1 card like a R4 to program it.

    www.supercardstore.com still does the slot 2 style SD and Mini SD cards. These will play GBA games and as far as I can tell will work fine on the GBA and SP. You will need a slot 1 card for the DS bit it looks like they work on that as well. Got one of the older Compact flash ones and that works on both.
    Beware the quiet ones, they often carry the biggest guns.
