Ok...now that my SCSD's running excellent,  have a couple questions. Before you assume I'm talking about Realtime Save, I know how to use that and that's currently how I"m saving my GBA roms. So, my question is, how do I get a game to actually save using the game's save feature? (Like if I played Pokemon Leaf Green and saved where I was at, turn off the GBA, turn it on, and load up Pokemon LG and continued by going to continue)

Another question is, how do I save NES roms like Zelda so I can continue where I left off after turning off/resetting the GBA? (Yes, I know about Save state but it's a temporary save until I switch games)

Lastly, how do I get the music player program to work? I have the music converter but I don't know what I need on the card other than the .gbs file (which is the song file)

You need to media play file (can be found in the downloads section of this site) to play sound files.

You can't save "normally" on pokemon games. They use 128k saves and the supercard only supports 64k. You have to use save states on the pokemon games there is no other way to save them.

There is no perfect way to save normally on GBA games... You can either use the QPC (quick power cycle) method (do a search for it) or use the restart patch.

How about Save state feature on NES roms? How do they actually stay saved after a restart?

the save state for a nes game is exactly the same as a gba you save the state then use the LRASELECT to save to sd card.

that has always worked for me!

and is there really NO way to save a pokemon game normally?

go to c: program files then goto the SC folder there is a nintendo .sav file in there, copy it, and then name it what ever game you want the sav for.  make sure that it is a .sav file
When you want to save during game play press L, R, select, and A   -   at the same time , you will be able to choose save or load
