Fair Point! Sorry, I just thought when you said you wanted 1 key GBA you had a DSONE too in there.

I agree Slot 2 SC's sucked at GBA

You are correct in what you thought. I i did say i had a SCDS1 and wanted a keystroke to go to gba/original ds menu. But i stated later that i put the superkey.nds in the scds1 menu so my daughter, when using my ds could still get to her games on the scsd.

All is good!

Anyone wants to tell how you load GBA games from Slot-1 Supercard v3 with Supercard Lite inserted into the Slot-2?

Last time I placed .gba commercial back-up on Supercard v3, it just gives me white screens. BTW, I tried to get Zelda Minish Cap working.

Thanks in advance

added to v3 sp3 loader
hotkey: R+B to enter the slot-2 GBA mode

Was that directed at me? if not, sorry.

Do I place clean .gba dump on the MicroSD/HC that will go into the Slot-1 cart?

I think he is referring to the original topic, which asked how to go from the SCDS1's menu to actually booting a gba game in the gba slot (and not talking about the superkey function).

The SCDS1 does not play gba games, i think you need an emulator for slot1 gba playing or a slot2 cart. The slot1 gba are not the best atm.

you just press A to boot a clean .gba rom from slot1 to slot2 but theres no way you can save
but you can load a save by putting it on the slot1 with the gba rom

also minish cup will have to be patched for sram you can use gbata to do this

I still wonder if the QPC method would work for an SRAM-patched game.  Turn the DS off, boot the slot-2 Supercard in GBA mode, go to the Saver tab, navigate to the save file, and press A.  Of course, this would require you to have the same save file on both cards if you wanted to both load your progress and save it, and afterward you'd have to use a tool to transfer the updated save from the slot-2 card back to the slot-1 card, but it might work.

i cant test the qpc method as my SCCF is half dead it wont read CF cards any more

when you patch for sram then save your game normally & knock your ds off & back on again your save is still there so it might work
but seems like a lot of work
