    Default Gameboy games on Nintendo DS

    Hi everyone! I'm new and I need some help. I want to copy my gameboy game so that I can play it on my Nintendo DS. What do I need? What do I need to do? Thanks for any help!

    People aren't very helpful huh? Lol. Yeah I'm looking for the same. You'll need 2 devices, a slot-1 and a slot-2 to play anything other than DS roms.

    As for which ones to get and where, I have no idea. I THINK the supercard and ez5 might be a good combo, but as you've seen in my thread, no one has verified.....

    Thanks! So, I will need both devices? Also, I've read about linkers; will I need one? Will instructions come included with the products?

    For just playing back GB and GBC games, all you need is a slot-1 device. Launch Lameboy from that and choose the game to play. For GBA games you must use a slot-2 device of some sort, the most popular of which being the EZ-V 3in1 expansion pack.

    That should be enough for GB and GBC games, as long as you don't get a unit with a PSRAM error (which has become more common in the past month or so).

    Download Lameboy, put it on your card along with your *.gb and *.gbc files, launch Lameboy, and choose the game to play. Be sure to read up on how exactly to save games with Lameboy.

    How do I put my gameboy file onto the card? I found a guide to Lameboy 0.11 on Youtube but it doesn't have anything about copying gameboy files.

    Sorry for the late response.

    I have a feeling you're expecting something a bit more complicated than it actually is. Just put the microSD card in your card reader, open it up with Windows Explorer, and copy and paste games into it. If you don't have the *.gb/c files in the first place, you'll need to get them. Due to forum rules we cannot tell you where to get them.
