I would like to buy a 512mb extreme flash advance gameboy advance flash cart.   

it must include the cord that connects it to the pc, the driver disk, another disk with the efa client on it and [Oviously] the flash cart itself. if anyone has one please post on here.

I got a fair few from just searching on ebay..  You could prob even find a genuine Nintendo one - they have a switch on to from 32 - 64 - 256 Mbit :)

no it doesn't, says  "This category is empty."


flash advance carts are very hard to find. Believe me, I have scoured ebay and google with no success.

balls sorry, I copied a URL that had tons of GBA carts in but now it's empty, maybe a syntax error.  I won't rest until I find a reliable source now as I've not had to look hard myself and I've bought about 5 by now.



So I did find some links, but these may not be ideal depending on where you live:

Oh yeah, noted that these may not all be the EXACT cart you're looking for, but all the places I bought mine are sold out and now making lucrative DS cards, sorry.  Saying that, there is at least ONE EFA linker in there, for what I think is (now) a decent price.

Hope you get on ok, even though it's out of stock right now :(

Your best bet at this point is ebay or craigslist. I know that nintendo back in the day swiftly got rid of sites that sold GBA flash carts (though it baffles me that Nintendo DS flash devices are sold in many online stores). I have been looking for a flash 2 advance cart and GB-bridge for a long time now with no success

L___E___T

what is a GB bridge?  I know somewhere that sells those GB transferrer 2 and is never out of stock but they are not always cheap.

Thing is, you said yourself ebay is fruitless - so I do think the best bet is to do what I did and scour google cos there are sellers out there somewhere (like in the links above).

A GB-Bridge is a device that lets you play Gameboy Mono/Color games on a GBA (stores the ROMS on a Flash 2 Advance cartridge). I have scoured the internet for months but no luck.

When I reccomended ebay, I meant as a whole, rather than just the USA ebay. I have found some great items on the UK and Hong Kong ebay, since in many of those countries, those are not illegal.

Unless you're talking about storing the ROMs or something...you can play GB(C) games on a GBA with no pass-through device
I like to glitch old VHS tapes and turn them into visuals for live music events. Check out what I'm working on - www.instagram.com/tylerisneat

I am well aware of that. The largest GB(C) flash cards are 64mb (I have two Bung Doctor 64mb flash carts), but with the Flash 2 Advance carts, you can have say, 256mb or larger, which is why I want to find a GB-Bridge (the GB-Bridge is ONLY compatible with Flash 2 Advance carts).

my flashcart came with a bunch of shitty GB, GBC and NES and SMS emulators on - they all work but are not as good as the ones you find for DS or PSP - but did the bridge you mention transfer all the information over with saves etc as well?  I could load saves, but not rip them or transfer them from a cart..

I don't want to use emulators. I want to use actual hardware. The GB-Bridge is just an adaptor that lets you use flash 2 advance cartridges to play Gameboy/GBC games on your GBA

oh i see.  Just a ote, the emulator works exactly the same funny enough.  the only way to use actual hardware i think is with a gbc flash cartridge, there are tons of those for sale as the chiptune community thrive on em.

Once again, I am well aware of having to use GB(c) flash carts, and I already have two of them that are 64mb. I want to use a GB-Bridge with 256mb or better Flash 2 Advance cartridge to have more capacity
