    Default Saving GBA Games

    Sorry if this is a daft question but I've never quite understood this one. I've been to the supercard home page and it says to do a real time save with A+B+Start+Select or something like that, but when I tried it it didn't work and I lost the save!

    So, how do you save the games? Can you do it normally just save like you would original GBA game or do you have to do something else? I have the original SD supercard with latest FW + Superpass

    I think that real time save option is only for GBA games. It doesn't work with DS games.

    The few nds roms my daughter has been using mario etc all let you save normally.

    Sorry I've been away for a couple of weeks. What I mean is how do you save GBA games, I know DS games you save as you would an original, but how do you save the GBA games?

    after you have played the game, switch the DS back on and push right to goto the save menu, you shoul dsee the same list of games, but when you click on em, it says "do you save to SD" or somethin, click yes.

    I remembered to do that bit, but how do you actually save first do you just do it normally or do you HAVE to use the real time save?

    Then you switch off and on then go to the saver bit and save to SD. But last time I did that it didn't work!

    you save however you save within the game normally, u dont have to do anything unusual there, its just after you turn off the DS you have to turn it back on to save that data to the SD card.
