This is weird but I can't seem to get any of my GBA games to run on my M3 Perfect =/ It seems to get stuck on Loading. . . when I load up a game. Any ideas?

First time loading it up?
Everytime I clear the SYSTEM file and re-setup my M3 or whatnot, I make sure to not have any games on, load it twice, then add the games.

For some reason it seems that if I add them before-hand I generally get this "Loading..." problem, hence my saying that.

If that's not in, pardon me, that's just what it seems like it could be.

M3Perfect... not so perfect after all!

I've learnt with the M3 team (M3, G6 they suck at actually getting their own firmware's to work correctly!

Yeah it used to work, but now it just doesn't load for some stupid reason. Argh. I really hope I don't need to buy a new slot 2. >

I have no idea what you guys mean by "awkwardly formatted," but I found that my M3 Perfect wouldn't load any GBA ROMs larger than a few MB unless I formatted it as FAT32. Regular FAT--regardless of the cluster size and regardless of whether I tried to load it with START or A--always just froze at 0000kB when loading.

Wow thanks, that fixed it. I always thought my card was FAT32. . . Reformatted, added the GBA game and it worked perfectly. Thanks

    @BigOnYa My dad recently bought a spare Series X off of me, got game pass, and saw Madden '24 on Game Pass, decided to try it out.

    @K3Nv2 He was looking into consoles for his house anyway (for my younger siblings and himself) and I had a spare XSX and Switch I ended up selling him at pretty steep cuts. I would just give them to him, but I did buy them with the intent to sell them... and college is super expensive.
