Genny games on the GBA?

I'm trying to figure out how to get Sega Genesis games onto my eLink ROM Cart to play them on my GBA micro......

Anyone have any ideas on how to do this?

I know how to do it, but believe me, genny emulation on the GBA is terrible, much better to stick to the Sonic Advance games.

If you are desparate, I can help you out.

when you say terrible, what do you mean sepecifically?

I already beat the sonic advance games, and Sonic games aren't the only good Sega games

There were some betas released, which ran REALLY slow, no sound, and glitched up graphics.

I wish it was possible too, but the GBA simply lacks the power. A skilled dev might be able to pull it off, but most of them have moved on to the PSP/DS/Gp2X scene.

it's sad to hear that, especially when the GBA can play SNES games, mp3 files, NES games, gameboy, gameboy color, and more.......

It's sad.......

But then again, that's one reason why I'm getting a PSP, better SNES emulation

The Pandora costs too much for me (father to be, and wedding to plan)

Plus the PSP is being given to me as a gift, and it's the original Slim PSP, the 2001 series. And I already have the memory cards.

Though the Pandora does interest me, it really looks like a great item

Yeah, it's a good alternative if you can't afford a pandora.

was that a stab at me being poor?

I kid I kid, the wiz is waaaaaay better for me because it is landscape rather than clamshell

I don't like clamshell. plus it is smaller and has a touch screen!

the pandora has a touch screen as well, actually. It has a better resolution too. I don't know why the world hates clamshell, it protects the screen (it's a touchscreen, and not a capacitive one, so some protection is good)

the lack of clamshell is what made me get the GBA micro

touchscreen is only cool if you want it. But I like the smaller size
