Information
Console Emulated GBA
Runs on Nintendo DS
Developer Gericom
Source code GitHub
Latest version Commit 2286ea0 (2017/01/08)
Discussion thread GBATemp.net

GBARunner2 is a GBA hypervisor for DS (like Nintendont for GC on WII).

Usage

1. Make sure your sd card is fat32 formatted.

2. Put a gba bios as bios.bin in the root of your sd card.(*)

3. Put Gbarunner2.nds on your sd card.

4. SRAM patch your gba rom with GBATA to avoid the "Your save data is corrupted" message.

5. Put the rom as runner.gba in the root of your sd.

6. Run gbarunner2.nds.

(*) Do not use Normmatt's open-source GBA BIOS, as some patches are applied to the BIOS at hardcoded addresses. The MD5 of the BIOS you must use is A860E8C0B6D573D191E4EC7DB1B1E4F6. Use WinMD5Free to check the MD5.

Not implemented yet

- GUI.

- Rom selector/browser.

- Saving on sd card (currently in work).

Compiling the latest version

1. Make sure you have devkitpro installed.

2. Download the git repo.

3. Run make in the root.

Compatibility list

  • ! A save error message (and sometimes other crashes too) means that your game must be sram patched (every game not using sram should be patched so check that before reporting) - check the Usage section for the appropriate tool !
  • ! Some Games have Release Intro´s attached to themselve. Those Intros use a Code that is not supported yet. Try using the GBATA tool to remove the Intro to get the Game to work. Use an Emulator to see if a Game has a Rom Intro or not !
