You have no Internet?

[Shadowblind]

Pokemon Diamond still freezes.... :(

[DPyro]

Well, I turned it on and it doesn't work :confused:

[kaffie]

Don't forget to use Start in the menu or ALt-S

[kcajblue]

ehh....
ill stick with an actual ds to play my games.

[JKKDARK]

What are you talking about? You only need to correct stuff to dump the games

[kaffie]

I see irony is wasted.

[DoctorEggman]

I don't have any DS ROMs though. They are hard to find.

[tsimehC]

Works with PES6 and that Mario game. Too slow to play though as my PC is well...ancient?

[Mr_Biggs]

full speed, my ass. it's sucking up all 2 ghz of my sempron, running at 15 fps. i think i'll stick with my DS.

[lemoe]

amazing, totally playable.... just had a game of warioware with my mouse!!! woooh!

btw, im running a 3.8gh dual core and getting great speeds

Which necessitates the internet, once again.

[Alpha_Slayer]

Hmm... I don't now why you'd say NSMB plays at full speed... I got an average of 25fps with major graphic glitches that made it damn near unplayable.

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rofl: :thumbup: this dude is so funny

[Balthasar00]

FF III still freeze at intro menu ?

[SchmuckofNI]

I concur mario is hella glitchy and FF3 is still buggy as all hell. Still, a nice step in the right direction I am amazed that this much has been done in a rather short period of time. Just to let you guys know that I am running this on a Pentium 950 D 3.4 ghz with 2 gigs of 533 ddr2 ram and a 512 meg Radeon XT1900.

when i open new Super Mario Brothers it says:

COuld not erase data. Turn the power off and reinsert Game Card. Has anyone gotten it to start?

[iceman100]

this is a bunch of bull no games work

[fryguy]

@kayhanbakid: it works if you set Save Type to EEPROM 64kbit.

But the emulator is awfully slow on my computer.

[Zion]

to all the noobs that said it doesnt work, it DOES.

you have 2 options to make it faster.

1. Get a good pc
2. Go to Options > Increase Cpu speed > 75%.

Then it will be full speed.

Do some reasarch before flaming this great emu please

[tsimehC]

Ok, I can say that it does indeed work. Maybe a few screenshots need to be shown to some people here...

EDIT: Damn, well I just realised that the graphics are actually glitchy...>.>'

Yeah I got the game working on my NDS...:rofl: . at any rate this emu does not run as it claimed in the post. To answer your question, it does work, but slow.

Even if it is full speed, the graphical glitches are so horrible that the game is not playable. I was not flaming the emulator, I love it. I just don't think it is right to post false claims just to get attention. Maybe you should learn how to spell before judging people you don't even know.

[voteforpedro36]

It doesn't open any ROMs for me :( . I dunno, I just press open the press the play button or am I missing something??

[mbiffen]

Not so. Warioware worked fine on my computer. Graphical glitches has never stopped it from running full speed. So the guy didn't lie.

You all must have some reallll bad computers.

[Lodis]

I think this emulator is really good but No$gba 2.4a seems to be faster but I haven't tested it for very long. DS emulation has progressed very far and before people flame the emulators, they should actually learn how to use them correctly and look at known problems.

i'v bin looking for one that can work but never had any luck with that
