Now, don't start flaming me just cause i have an idea for an app that i dont' know how to make (nor have the skills to create). I was just thinking...would it be possible to make a tool to alter gba games so that they save to the ds slot? The reason for this being that my gba flash cart won't save anymore, but the ds roms i play save because they're patched to save to the ds game in the ds slot. Is anybody interested in pursuing such a feat?

Apart from in situations similar to yours what advantages would this have?

Programs running in GBA mode cannot access DS specific hardware.

Has this board given up on it's anti piracy stance?
There are links to illegal tools all over the place now and questions obviously related to piracy are being answered.

Definitely looks like it...
Note the constant links to P0cketH3aven (where tepples is quite active, it seems) and other hints given to people obviously planning to pirate...

ok it's sad if it is true.. but I havn't really seen any signs of it yet.. I mean like in this thread where is the piracy talk (except for the complainings)?
just b\c YOU think he is going to use it for his evil w4r3z masterplans.. that doesn't mean that it is what HE is going to use it for.

This doesn't sound like he's playing homebrew roms to me, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt

If there's anything obviously piracy related where I incorrectly gave the benefit of the doubt, PM me and I'll fix it.
EDIT: For example, I take this post to mean "I admit to pirating DS games occasionally, but I want to run GBA games (possibly homebrew, possibly pirated) and have them save to a DS original cart."

Buy a new flash cart. Obviously that is the problem that needs to be fixed.
Some of the newer flash carts come with replacement backup batteries so you wont run into the same problem again.
