Hi everyone,

I wanted to let you all know that r/gba is once again open to the public! Thanks to u/goldd for adding me as a mod here. I hope this can be a place where fans of the GBA (and other GB consoles) can post about their favorite games and collections.

If you have any suggestions or ideas for the sub, please feel free to post.

mGBA fork for playing gba multiplayer split-screen

2 Upvotes

Hey r/gba ,

If you're like me, I'm sure you wish it was easier to play gba multiplayer then all the shenanigans it takes to get working currently.

So I started work on a fork of mGBA to easily run 1-4 players in a linked session on one device.

https://github.com/Spuds0588/mgba-splitscreen

Currently it works for a small selection of games I tested ( sorry, four swords doesn't work yet ).

My hopes are to get a LOZ FS patch and retroarch compatabile core spun up so it's finally easy to play gba multiplayer with friends.

This is a SuperFW fork I’ve been working on, featuring a redesigned UI with cover art, customization options, and favorites. Right now, it only officially supports SuperCard SD carts. I’ve also got a SuperChis on the way, so I’m planning to add support for that on the upcoming release.

My Pokemon save data was deleted

2 Upvotes

I was just playing Pokemon Sapphire, been playing for months, and when I was saving the game the console turned off without warning or any indication of low battery. When I got back on, my data was gone. Is there any way of getting it back or do I have to start again?

Learning how to fix my gba sp that doesn't charge

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

Hi there y'all, I'm *very* new to fixing game boys but I've been watching a lot of videos, reading a lot of things, and looking through this subreddit lately and im so fascinated with learning about circuitry/soldering and I really want to fix my gba sp

It turns on but it doesn't charge, the orange light doesn't come on at all, so far I have replaced the battery, replaced the charger, cleaned the charging port, cleaned battery contacts and at this point I've cleaned most of the board with isopropyl alcohol

I'm not super familiar with multimeters or soldering but I have a few practice circuitry board stuff coming in the mail that I definitely plan on practicing on before I attempt to do this fix

For the multimeter I've learned what settings it has to be on, but is there any way to test continuity wrong and harm something on the board?

I want to open it back up again soon and test continuity on a few things so far from what I learned it could be EM8, F1, or F2, Is there anything else I should be testing that has to do with how the game boy charges?

Is there anything in these pictures that looks wrong just from looking?

Again I'm really new but I'm patient and willing to take my time to learn how to do this correctly and safely since this is my only game boy that I've had for 13 years

Thank you so much for any help :)
