Well last year I picked up the M3DS Real + Rumble RAM Pak (stupid me, I know).


fast forward, I now have M3 Sakura on my DS and when I turn it on it says "2Mbyte Expansion Cart detected"

So I know I can't use it to play GBA games, but my question is. If I trim a GBA game to be 2mb or less then would I be able to play them? Also can I use the Rumble RAM Pak to use the DS Browser?


and finally, With the 2Mbyte Expansion Cart, Will I be able to play GBA Homebrew Games or use GBA homebrew apps?

thank you very much for reading this.

I have not been able to get it to work.

I go to pick my GBA rom, and then it shows the GBA logo (As it does with any GBA game when starting) and thats as far as it gets. It stays on the GBA logo screen forever.

i've heard about people getting the rumble-ram to run a few simple gba games.
tough it won't work if the game is above the size of your ram, and if it saves data.(rumble/ram most likely doesn't have any sram to store saves)

You can't play gba games with that RAM (2 mb...)
If you want to play it, you must buy the "perfect pack" or something like it

I went ahead and ordered the GBA exp Pak (thanks for the heads up Joe).

only reason I even bought the Rumble RAM Pak is becuase the company I get it from told me it would work with all my legally owned GBA backups (I know, never listen to the person that wants you're money).

I have realized now that the Rumble RAM Pak is worthless tho (The rumble feature is annoying as hell, it is the loudest most annoying piece of crap I have ever seen).

thanks again guys.
