hello, i am going to purchase Super Card and i wanna know what file type and waht the type do :
for exmple: *.GBA-GBA rom

thank you for your helping!
sorry about the bad english and the noob question

You need to pass EVERY rom you are gonna play thru the software (see the sticky postings in each board).  Then you just copy those roms over to the CF card.

Not EVERY Rom, you don't need software conversion on roms that you don't want to or need to patch. You can play a gba game without patching it. You wont be able to use the patching advantages but you can. Also you don't need patch for *.nes, *.pce, *.gbm, *.gbs files. You can patch *.gba, *.bin files but as I said that isn't a law it's only for saving and cheats. Exemple: I didn't patched calculator.bin and just put it in CF because I don't need to save anything with it. Patching adds only saving (both real time and normal), cheats, soft reset (L+R+St+Sel).

1) Supported file formats in firmware =

gba game :*.bin ,*.gba
FC game :*.nes

2) Supported file formats if you add FilmPlay.gba

BTW... FC is short for Nintendo's Family Computer (AKA Famicom) which was the Japanese name for the US Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)...

I know you might know this, or figured it out by the .nes file support, but I was actually asked this question by a friend recently so I thought I'd share.
