| 2 | A GC and Wii Homebrew App to get GBA BIOS, ROMs and saves via the GC GBA Link Cable. | 2 | A GC and Wii homebrew app that sends a binary to the GBA using the different multiboot protocol used by the third generation of Pokémon games (Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, FireRed, LeafGreen). |
| 3 | Save Support based on SendSave by Chishm. | ||
| 4 | GBA BIOS Dumper by Dark Fader. | ||

| 6 | # Usage | 4 | # Usage |
| 7 | Just have a GC Controller in Port 1 and a GBA without a game inserted or aborted game launch by holding select+start in Port 2. | 5 | Have a GC Controller in Port 1 and a GBA with Gen3 game in Port 2. |
| 8 | The bin, gba and sav files dumped will be placed in a folder called "dumps" on your main device (SD Gecko on gamecube and SD/USB on Wii). Please note that dumping GBA ROMs can take a long time (32mb takes about 48 minutes) because of the cable protocol limitations, a estimation will be displayed on screen before you dump it as a reference. | 6 | Put your payload code to do some interesting stuff with the Pokémon game you have in `gba` dir. Example code that changes first character of player name to 'z' on Pokémon Ruby English (v1.0-1.2) provided. |
| 7 | Recompile, send to Wii or GC, turn on your GBA, hope that your code runs after the initial copyright screen of the game. | ||
| 8 | (Code execution rate is for some reason not 100% reliable, PR to fix would be greatly appreciated. Sometimes KeyC derivation fails, sometimes GBA ignores the sent multiboot image, could be due to failure of a few different sends) | ||

| 11 | Thanks to FIX94 for your multiboot game dumper, which the multiboot code is loosely based on (differences in crypto & protocol...) | ||
| 12 | Without it, this would have taken longer to do than the 2 days or so that it took. \ No newline at end of file | ||
