    ugh! i know you're sick of hearing this, but...

    hey, i'm honestly sick of posting this kind of crap too, so please don't get mad at me. the thing is, with advances in technology and emulation, i was wondering just how hard it would be to emulate linking either by 2 screens or by netplay. i mean, not everyone has 2 gameboys and 2 copies of each game, and collecting rings in sonic advance 2, racing as yoshi with 4 tracks in mario kart, and playing '83s mario bros. gets old REALLY fast. i was just wondering if playing 4 swords online will ever be a reality. if not, i was wondering if nes emulation on the GBA requires 2 flash carts or not. thanks again, and sorry about this.

    Well you can link in two GBA emulators now (no$gba and rascalboy). Netplay is a damn site harder than you'd anticipate, heck a high speed low latency network would be tough enough, nevermind the inherent latency of the net.

    i think netplay will become possible, but with the speed the gba linkcable uses, it will take a long time before it's done

    hm.......interesting. linking 2 emulators? how do you do THAT? lol. also, i'm quite curious about flash carts and wanted to know (since nes games are so small) if 2 gameboys can be linked with one cartridge. thanks again.


    EDIT: HA HA HA. sorry, i thought that you literally ment running 2 emulators and "linking" them. lmao. sorry.

    DAMMIT! No$GBA crashes every time i try to play multiplayer and it doesn't save my config. even when it doesn't crash the 2 emulated gbas don't even notice that they're "connected". rascalboy advance doesn't even boot up with 2 screens (even though I used the plugin for it) and it has the worst config options ever. how the heck do i play something when nothing works right? any ideas?

    No$GBA works multiplayer for me. Me and a few friends beat Kirby and the Amazing Mirror on it. XD

    So, it crashes? There's a save config option in the menu, but, does it just automatically exit?
