ok, ill be ordering the max media launcher today, and i want to make sure ill have things straight, and that everything will be compatible with each other. Tell me if i'm wrong about anything.


right now, i have the gbamp CF.

when i recieve my max media launcher, i'm going to:

1)run ndsmp.gba on my gbamp to put chishms firmware on it

2)insert max media launcher. (now I will be able to run .nds files on it, right?)

3) boot up some homebrew

More accurately, after you run ndsmp.gba, you will need to put a boot menu like MoonShell on your CF card as "_boot_mp.nds", and it will automatically load that when you have your Max Media Launcher in. Then you can load other .nds files from there.

But yeah, everything else there seems to be in order.

There's almost no way it couldn't.
