Some of you may remember that my parents wouldn't let me get a flash cart because they thought it was illegal and so on. However, after around a year, I have managed to convince them to allow me to get one. Yesterday, I gave my money to my dad, and got him to order it. As a result, I should have my cartridge within a few days, as it is a UK based company. I may even get it tomorrow. As you can tell, I'm excited.. Is there anything I'll need to check out in my games before I can run them on the GBA? Like headers, as I know you need the nintendo logo to get through the check. Will the cartridge just do that anyway?

Some flash writing software will automatically fix the headers; otherwise, the 'gbafix' software included with devkitARM will fix the headers.

Cool, nice going. I love convincing my parents to order stuff for me. So fun.
Anyway, what cartridge did you get, because most of the newer ones you won't need to worry about Nintendo logo's and so on.

You can give a man a fish. Argue with your parents every time you want to buy something.
You can teach a man to fish. Talk your parents into getting a joint checking account and an ATM/debit card. Or try Visa Buxx.

Heh, Tepples. Yea, the headers are fine now. I seriously doubt that hey'll do any of the more 'extreme' things you suggested though! Visa Buxx looks like a great idea, but it'll never happn, probably. Remember, it took a year to get the flash cart!

It never hurts to asks. Even if you know your parents will say no, ask anyway to find out how they decline.

Thanks for the enthusiasm. I got a very nice 256mb EZFA (the real Borden variety) for ?49.99.
