I wish hackers would stop making the assumption that players want quality of life changes included in their translated ROMs. Some of us just want to play a faithful translation of the original. QoL changes should be optional, not mandatory.

Thank you for the lack of response. I worked it out anyway.
Hi. Anyone on here modded a GBA with an FP rechargeable battery? Just wondered if the white plastic wire connector slides into the PCB slot or is pushed in from above. Having difficulty getting it to connect, and it comes with no instructions.

I've just about completed my Dreamcast GDMenu/OpenMenu project. Around 320 games, complete with cover art and meta data.
At times, a pain in the arse, but ultimately a decent set-up.
Onto my next project.
