I bought a cheap gameboy advance flashcart on dealextreme[pic] for $9.21 with free shipping. I also have a EZ FLASH 3-in-1, it's $20 and it's great, but this would be to loan to friends or even give away...
It's 128Mbit (16MiB) and has some SRAM (256KB). The problem? Parallel port linker which required a GBA! Your PC uses the GBA to actually program it. My solution? Write a small program to do that for ya... Too bad I had no information on this cart besides it says "SZcard ver.1" on the PCB.
I found a forum where someone did a large quantity order and distributed them, here.
I won't link to my lil test app, because i change it a lot to test other things and such so it's not at a great state, but the my latest build of gbaldr patched to work on this card is below.
now if someone could send me a dump of the menu that's written to it with SPLINK then I can also add multi-boot capabilities and be motivated to make gbaldr actually work better... right now, your saves will not be backed up. actually when you right this build, first thing it does is kill your SRAM because bank switching is not available yet. sorry.
gbaldr v0.1 + szcard patch (build 1)
