Super Game Boy 2 (Beta)

I'm sorry I do not have a google document set up at this time. I will work on setting up one.

Latest release and source.

Mega Man V seemed to work ok at first but attempting to select the second or fourth robot masters will cause the game to reboot when it gets to the point of showing the intro of the boss

I decided it is necessary to create a spreadsheet because the constant updates would quickly deprecate the list. Also, why isn't the Sameboy core being used? The author needs to be pointed int hat direction since it is the most accurate core.

Can the Sameboy core run Roboponcots? Also from what I have seen compatability seems almost the same for the boarders minus the GBC games being a hit or miss, also I wonder if they can implement the RAM file of Tamagotchi 3 that got made a while ago into this build so that those unworking chip games can finally be played on the SD2SNES as the EDGB couldn't run them?

What special function does Tamagotchi 3 utilise? I'm unaware of Sameboy having severe issues, perhaps this was a problem years ago?

Hmmm... I made this a while ago it should help - https://imgur.com/ec0u5OS

Sameboy is highly accurate, I doubt it has problems with most normal games.

Special hardware like the Robotponkotsu games are hardly emulated by any emulator. But that's irrelevant since the emulator source code is just used as documentation.
GBE+ is supporting a lot of the obscure hardware.

Tamagocchi 3 has a custom MBC with an EEPROM, RTC and a piezoelectric beeper.

You also forgot the include the Mani 4-in-1 series of official Chinese Game Boy compilations.

None of those games run on the EDGB or the X7 they are on real hardware but the only thing I managed to get was the boarders to use on any game, one of them leads up the developer screen which was the poncots USA version but it then whites out. While the others only load the boarders I made a more comprehensive list here of every game in my finalized EDGB version a few years ago it pretty much covers every special chip game even what attatchment was used on it, image heavy incoming...

Comprehensive Enhanced Color Game List which don't load up a boarder so you can add any other game boarder from any SGB enhanced game that is not listed here (Including the 3 games that lost their enhancements to get the colors back via code) - https://imgur.com/pyRFS5t

Oh Those... I think they unlike the others require not much searching up for compatibility as goomba can run most of them this is based off my supercard SD so its likely a comprehensive list of what games you can play on your GBA on the go! Am not sure what they were originally called as I simplified them just like the rest on my Super Card SD that only had a limited amount of characters for each rom when it used to work but if I provide the file sizes it should hopefully help you...

Of course none of those in 1 games work on the EDGB as it just shows the blank Gameboy logo line but the mentioned emulator on any other device runs it also that 1st unplayable game being Daikyuu Montigari actually works on the goomba emulator too if I recall as done a few Pokémon hacks being Blacx (A gen 6 hack), Haiiro (A Gen 3 hack if I recall) and XY Naturia (If I recall) though as my device died a long time ago I cant tell anymore but as they worked on goomba it likely works still on GBA these don't work on EDGB either.

Hey guys ... Is there any benefit to using this instead of the MiSTer GB/GBC cores?

I don't mean any disrespect at all!  I'm just wondering if there are any advantages to using this instead of a MiSTer core because both of them are simulating the hardware?  (the SNES in this situation is just delivering the audio/video, but basically the FPGA is doing the same thing in both cases?)

(Obviously for people who don't have access to a MiSTer than this is a great addition of course!)

[dreimer]

The benefit is that you can use the SGB optimizations of some games and the one specific game which includes a whole SNES game. MiSTer supports GB and GBC which even is the better way to go if you want these games in full glory. Nope not possible with that solution we talk about here. You can't magically add more bandwidth to stream the image to the SGB ROM / SNES. Soo, if you want the SGB feeling, this is the way to go, if you want compatibility, MiSTer is better.

Luckily nobody wanna compete to MiSTer here, the plan is to support all chipsets the SNES ever had included in games and this DMG in a cart is one of them

[nuu]

The MiSTer core is open source, so I would be surprised if the author hasn't at least looked at the MiSTer DMG core.

New Update Released: https://github.com/redacted173/sd2snes/releases

Update notes:
-Fixed GB RTC. Known bugs are fixed, but it is not well tested. See readme.txt.
-Updated initial WAV RAM values to match a SGB2.
-Fixed end of frame line match interrupt.
-Added extra line of OAM interrupt.
-Fixed problem with hidden sprites still getting rendered.
-Fixed some cases of partially flashing scanlines by masking OAM LUT reads/writes when DMA is active.
-Fixed interrupt related problems by rewriting STAT interrupt generation logic. Removed hack where OAM interrupt was masked using sprite disable flag.
