Title: Link Battle with GBC emu?
Post by: guamboy on April 12, 2011, 05:50:03 am
Hello people! I'm guamboy (from Guam ^^).
I was wondering if you can link battle/trade/even connect with other Nspires?
(yah, I'm talking about pokemon for the gbc4nspire emulator).
I used the link cable that can connect 2 Nspires.

I tried the normal way, but the link wasn't recognized.
(Normal way as in, talk to the girl in game. Please wait... like that stuff).


*If it is impossible, that is fine, I was just wondering if the emulator could do it.

I don't believe it's possible.  I've asked if TI-Boy could emulate the link cable, but there seems to be too many issues with that, so I doubt it would work.  (And this is on the regular TI-84, but I doubt the NSpire would be that different in this regard).

EDIT: Unless you controlled the bottom pins well enough, that is...

I'm sorry that it's not possible.  :(
BTW, if they had to utilize that USB port, they would hav to choose between sound and link IMO.

Well, not exactly.  Besides, I'm pretty sure that USB would be an utter pain to implement here.  I don't think we even fully understand it on the nSpire, and I know we don't know everything about the TI-84.

I meant that they haven't implied the linking capability yet.
