At the risk of having moderators mad at me, I'm going to ask for a little help in my search.

Ever since I've joined this forum, I've been on the lookout for a particular program, a program that will capture games or utilities sent by the GameCube to the GBA over the link cable. For example, the Tingle Tuner in Zelda Wind Waker, the controll / in-dungeon map for Four Swords, or the plethora of games and stuff in Animal Crossing (NES games, Animal Island, the pattern designer).

I have, to some degree, verified the existence of this program, and to my understanding it works as a GBA rom that captures the program from the GC, and spits it out over an MBV2 cable to the PC as a ROM.

I have a feeling information like this is NOT good publicity to smear on these forums, as it borders on piracy (that depends on how you use it, really), and I can understand if the moderators remove this post entirely (not just lock it).

So if anyone has information that could lead me to finding this program which I've searched hard and long for with little to no success, I would greatly appreciate it. And like I said, it's best not to post that information! Contact me and we can meet elsewhere.

Thanks a lot everyone

Heheh, just have to meet in a dark downtown alleyway at midnight, on a stormy night, and both people must be wearing long black trenchcoats. And make sure to practice your "shifty eyes" beforehand, it may come in handy ;)

Sorry, I can't help ya though. I haven't come across such a thing.

Well, I guess the mods booted my bumps... but that's okay (I guess bumps aren't allowed? *checks rules*... *doesn't find rules he agreed to upon signing up* Er, I'll just assume that bumps, either in general or for this particular post, are frowned upon).

Anyways, I've found what I'm looking for! (Actually, someone else gave it to me on another forum)

Most phpBB boards that I've read don't like bumps with minimal to no content, e.g. "++postcount", or multiple bumps in the span of a day or two. But if you have new information, then you're welcome to post it or edit your last post.
