Gameboy Game Saves

[clarky2o2o]

is there a Gameboy emulator that can read and werite the same "save" files as a windows gameboy emulator?


this would make it possible to continue playing A game when the batteries have died etc.

I would imagine GnuBoy would work with them.

What was the problem?

Any gamestates from PC emulators will work, as all a gamestate is is dumped RAM.

Well, I haven't managed to do it.

I think the GP2X Gnuboy save states may be different from the ones a PC emulator produces as they include a screen shot.

Try renaming the state to zip and extracting it. (I've not tried this, but some (if not most) emulators zip the save states).

I'm not very familiar with ARMs. Since it's a RAM snapshot, could there be an endian-ness[0] problem?


[0] If that's not a word, it should be.
