Gamecube Backup Launcher Compatibility Matrix

Anyone is free to edit this list though you must create an account first. Vandals will be banned and their IP blocked from further edits.

PLEASE READ ME (Guidelines)

Please mention what version you are using under the "notes" section.

1. If a game is working it doesn't always make it green, as titles marked green should be/are 99.9-100% compatible. See color chart below.

2. The Notes section is only for quirks regarding the way the game plays with the loader. Notes like "Works Great" are not needed and simply add clutter.

3. PAL TO NTSC FORCED isn't a valid region and vice versa. Regarding regions, please don't take an existing entry and completely change the region - start a new entry.

4. If a game is not fully filled in, (IE: The region is not entered or the result is not there) then the game will be removed.

5. If you are the first person to add a game then the confirmed column should read 0 (as it is unconfirmed). Every person should then add 1 to that when they have tested it as working.

6. Keep it to English! Most people at GBATemp have decent English, if you can't say something in English, then write it down in whatever language you speak and hopefully someone will translate it for you.

7. Please, if a game starts with "The" it does not belong under the T section. "The Sims 2" would become "Sims 2, The" under S.

8. Since some people have not noticed, this guide starts at A and ends at Z. This means alphabetical order. Buffy is NOT after Burnout.

Compatibility Legend
Green represents games that work 100% or just have slight audio/video stutter or anything else that doesn't effect gameplay .
Orange represents games that mostly work but with more serious but playable bugs, or random lockups (random doesn't mean lock up every time at the same spot in the game).
Red represents games that do not load and have major problems and/or are unplayable, or have consistent lock ups.
