Description

Game Name?

All GBA <-> GCN games

While the official Dolphin Blog post (here: https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/68) shows that this is possible I, a dumb end-user, have no clue how to do this and would appreciate this feature being implemented for the general userbase.

  • Issue type changed from Bug to Feature request

Based on this code it looks like you can do it by dragging and dropping a .raw file onto the MGBA window, but this isn't the most obvious thing and it would make sense to also have an option when right-clicking the window. (I haven't actually tried this myself.)

It's already possible to do via drag and drop. You scan one card then the next. It's not hard to do, it's just that it's probably not worth over complicating the GUI further by adding the whole eReader interface for this.

Thanks for responding, it sounds great! You may want to include this information elsewhere though as others would likely have this same question.

  • Status changed from Questionable to Fix pending

Since this issue report, we've had a lot of comments on the e-Reader support. It's probably worth sacrificing some space for scanning e-Reader being added.
