Can't load some of my games
Hi, I'm new here. Why does some of my games won't work on my drastic? I'm using android. Other games are working but tokimeki memorial and duel love won't load. Can anyone tell me why?

Re: Can't load some of my games
Are the ROMs encrypted? You might either need to decrypt them or use an NDS BIOS afaik. That or the ROMs might be corrupted as what I can attest at one time.wisalabidaloka wrote:Hi, I'm new here.

ROm could be broken/corrupted but they could also have AP protection that makes them not boot. Pokemon Conquest would just show a white screen unless it had a Anti-piracy patch applied.huckleberrypie wrote:Are the ROMs encrypted? You might either need to decrypt them or use an NDS BIOS afaik.

Also if your roms are in the external microsd card, some games won't load properly on slower cards so try moving it to your internal memory and loading them if they are on a external sd

I agree with kaikun97. BTW huckleberrypie, if the ROMs were encrypted, DraStic would notify the user that he or she needs arm (insert number here) bios.
No. No no no no no no.

In my experience I have only ever needed the official bioses to run homebrewJeaneMaggie wrote:Thankskaikun97 wrote:ARM7 and ARM9 biosesJeaneMaggie wrote:I agree with kaikun97.

I'm still waiting to get a flashcart to dump them. Apparently R4i cards can't do the job.

Well, I'll never know if someday I'll dump an encrypted ROM. I've heard DQ Hand of the Heavenly Bride has encryption and I'm planning to buy it.kaikun97 wrote: In my experience I have only ever needed the official bioses to run homebrew
No. No no no no no no.
Re: Can't load some of my games
All commercially released games are encrypted and all games can be decrypted. It's simply a matter of whether or not a ROM is decrypted or not. Decryption is generally part of the dumping process.
