Maco70 Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 Now, I know it is done, can be done, and hopefully will be done, but how? Poking around I realized I have no idea what I am getting myself into. Basically, I am looking for a cart for the GBA SP that I can use to play video/music. I've found things like this: http://www.jandaman.com/games.mvc?p=gbaefa256&Category_code=GBADEVKIT http://www.gameboy-advance.net/flash_linker/gba_xg-flash.htm http://www.emu-zone.net/gba-sp/ez-flash.htm But I'm not sure. Anyone have anything like this, or can offer some words of advice? Quote
Evilhead Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 Get a PSP? But seriously, I saw some kind of special GBA cart that would let you watch anime on your GBA at an E3 several years back. Not sure why you'd want to do that though... Quote
Maco70 Posted June 12, 2007 Author Posted June 12, 2007 Get a PSP? I knew someone was gonna say it ><;; The reason? I am cheap. Quote
Faustt Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 I have an an M3 Adapter (for my DS) works fine for the GBA though. http://www.m3adapter.com/products.htm movie quality and sound quality isn't that great for MP3/Videos, but it works. Quote
AMT Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 I bought a SuperCard SD, and if you don't mind a bit of the card sticking out the bottom, it's great. You can pay a bit more for the Mini SD version if you want. I put some movies on it and they were perfectly watchable, and mp3s play fine too. SuperCard Store is the best place to get em, too. Quote
jmr Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 I've got one of these things. It's basically a compact flash reader for GBA. The video conversion software is a little clumsy at times, and the quality leaves a bit to be desired, but it's not that bad. Plus, using a few modified emulators, you can play pretty much any NES, GBC, or SMS/GG game on it. Now, you could do all of that with nearly any other flash card, but to my knowledge, the GBAMP is MUCH cheaper. There's also the Supercard (and variants) and M3 adapters which are probably easier to find, and serve the same purpose, but I have no experience with any of them. If you still want to look into other products, check out the boards at pocketheaven. The guys there are fairly knowledgeable when it comes to those products. Quote
Drack Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 I'm an expert on flashcarts. Ask ANYONE in ClanOCR Do you have a DS, or just a GBA? My recommendation hinges upon your response. Quote

Gimgak Posted June 14, 2007 Posted June 14, 2007 I have this "Games n Music" thing by Datel. It's for the DS though. It's pretty nifty. It can play videos, music, and home brewed games. Only cost me $25. http://www.datel.co.uk/press_release.asp?i=133 Quote

Razumen Posted June 14, 2007 Posted June 14, 2007 I'd get the M3 Perfect. It's just as good as the GBA Movie Player, and you can use it with a DS as well (I use Moonshell for my DS video needs). It also has great GBA, NDS and homebrew support. Quote

Razumen Posted June 15, 2007 Posted June 15, 2007 Link me??????????????????????? Well, the site I ordered mine from doesn't have the SD version in at the moment(It seems to have been discontinued), but it does have the miniSD one: http://www.divineo.com/cgi-bin/div-us/dd-ds-m3minia.html-same thing, different media. Whatever you do, don't buy the Pro version, go for the Perfect. Here's the official site: http://www.m3adapter.com/SLOT-1/main.htm Here's a few other places you can ask for more information should you need it: http://boards.pocketheaven.com/ http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/ Quote
