GBA Support #7

Closed afska closed 4 years ago

afska commented 4 years ago

I'm using a v1.5 DIY version of the reader and I'd like to know if it can be modified to support GBA games.

I understand that they use less voltage than regular GB carts, but besides that, are there other differences or it should work passing 3v instead of 5v in the positive pin?

Hi, there is a difference in reading the rom and there is a lot of differences when reading saves and writing them back as there are different types. Take a look at our blog where we go into detail when we made GBxCart RW - https://www.insidegadgets.com/2016/12/25/gbxcartread-part-2-switching-to-ch340g-gba-rom-reading-sram-readwrite-and-determining-sizes/

Great. I'll have a look at it.

Thanks!
