Digimon Sapphire (GBA)

[Awesome Panda]

Well I ordered one myself, I suspect they're designed to work on Famiclones or something. :\ (Apologies for going off-topic, BTW)

Any of those YH and KT carts seem all faulty though, feels like luck if they work heh. I'm mostly biased for thinking they're garbage though

[taizou]

ooh, so this is still in production? i might request some other Vast Fame games and see what happens.

They'll be able to get Digimon Ruby, I'm sure of that since other wholesalers like dhgate have had it for awhile, though they require a minimum purchase of like 100 or something =p I showed them pics of other games like Sonic 3 Fighter Sonic, Lord of the Rings 4, Rayman 4, Harry IV... now they've got a Harry game, LOTR game and  Sonic Advance 3 and Rayman 3 :p Guess they couldn't find the games, or misunderstood that those aren't the games I was looking for.

[Awesome Panda]

Probably the former, because I'm surprised they could find carts that quickly in the first place.

I did ask for Digimon Ruby, Crash Bandicoot IV and Rockman & Crystal aside from the ones on your list though.

If it's not, they'll probably never get it. I doubt they actually go hunting for these things.

oh i completely forgot there was a separate thread for this lol. well yes! i've posted this in like three places now. sorry. but this seems like the most appropriate place for it:
http://fuji.drillspirits.net/?post=98 rom dump!

(also i'll move this to the GB forum)just noticed the Eurasia intro from their original dump of Kaze no Klonoa 2 is buried in the ROM.. bit of code stealing going on here?

[Barver]

Maybe they based the engine off of Klonoa? :x

I noticed the 3rd desert level uses the same background that's in the first level of the SNES Digimon, also can be seen in the 2nd/last level level of the GBA version. The level after it uses the same style too, I swear I've seen them somewhere before. Kind of reminds me of the backgrounds in Twinbee Rainbow Bell Adventure or whatever it's called on SFC.

Thanks for the dump

Taizou, just in case you haven't tested it yet I can confirm it does work on real hardware. And like mentioned elsewhere, its... good?

[Barver]

Only real complaint I have is it's a little repetitive in level design, they all feel like the same thing really.

[KingPepe]

Well, the game seems to run fine in VBA but in NO$GBA, it crashes during the intro (transition is where I think it crashes unless you force it) and when you're about to play the level.

[taizou]

strangely i've been playing the real cart and it crashes when you complete a level. but it still saves ok so you can get to the next level by turning the gameboy off and on and continuing. So I guess that's a pretty definite sign that this is a copy, it doesn't happen in this video.

[Awesome Panda]

Well SpaceNinja just beat the game and according to him, there's no ending. Are you sure the ROM dump's working properly?

[taizou]

No idea, the ROM dump is working better than the actual cartridge at this point. You'd have to ask Qiezei/NusuttoSan if his copy has an ending, his seems to be the original.

[Awesome Panda]

I might do that.
