SNES ROMS on GBA?

**d0nkeh** · June 29th, 2004, 10:36

Hey,

I know you can get those cartriges with memory on them that allow you to play GBA ROMS on your GBA (incidentally - what are those called?)

I was wondering though... is there any way to put an SNES ROM on one of those, and play it on the GBA? I realize there would be keymapping problems... But perhaps someone out there has developed a program for this purpose...

Any help would be greatly appreciated... I'd love to be able to play Chrono Trigger and FF6 on my GBA =D

There is a snes emulator but its not all that great yet. It has 3 games running perfect, but slowly.
I bought my cart on ebay for around <removed as i am not sure what currency you use>. XGFlash is a great one.

I also am looking forward to playing chrono trigger on my GBA *;D.

If you are looking at a handheld with a great deal of emulators i would go with the gp32 btw. The gba is no where near as powerful as that thing. it has a snes emulator running near perfect and a whole buch of other cool stuff. look into the gp32 before you buy a gba flash cart.

Hi,

Recently I bought the EZFA 256mb cartridge for my GBA. Since I bought it, I have had SNES, NES, Spectrum and Master System games running on my GBA. I have to say, the snes was the worst. It cuts off a bit of the top and bottom of the usual snes screen (due to widescreen) and it ran sooooooo slow. I advise you not to get a cartridge for the SNES roms, but for everthing else you can do with it. ;D

i know that now you can pick up a few old snes rom for about £13 from all good games retailers
and also you can get a retro style gameboy for about £86

The games you can buy are NES games, not SNES (thats if you are talking about the classics series with bomberman, and Mario ect.)

LOL you can buy Snes and Nes games from any store except stores like Futureshop,Zellers and other stores you probably dont know cause i live in Canada but if you have just a plain old video game store they have everything usually.
