I just ordered myself a ds-link from bamboogaming.com, as a replacement for my supercard mini-sd (just had to try out a slot-1 card in my ds lite, plus i seem to need the use of 2 flash cards/carts these days   )

Already getting impatient waiting for it  :lol: , so I checked out the manual on dslink.net. I bought it assuming it was of no use for GBA games, but I spotted this:

4.GBA Games

   Insert the ZIP card, choose and run the GBA game .DSLink can build the linkage with GBALink ZIP series cards, so it can run the games in TF card directly. Load games much faster. GBA games backup will be saved automatically into TF card,so it means that the linkage may enlarge the capacity of ZIP card..

5.Backup games saver manually

   DSLink will update and backup NDS and GBA games  saver automatically, and users can also operate them manually.


Now I'm not entirely sure about this, but it seems to suggest the DS-Link can force 'proper' GBA saving on a flashcart in slot-2 (specifically, the GBALink). For all I know, the GBALink might be able to do that anyway, I couldn't find that info anywhere. But this got me wondering, perhaps there might be a way to use the DS-Link to force 'proper' GBA saving on other flashcarts, such as the supercard? I'm guessing it would require firmware tomfoolery or something?
