SubjectI'm REALLY sorry if this is already covered, but.... new Reply to this message

I have fairly thoroughly scoured the posts for the last few months, and I can't seem to find any answers....

Every game that i get, including DKong and Pacman, as well as Contra and Bubble bobble, shows up in my games list, but when i run it, i get a black blank screen, then it cuts back. I have lots of memory free (i'm running a Jornada 548 with SH3 processor and 32MB ram) but still nothing. Actually contra gets past the liscensy screen before it cuts out, but not much farther. The other ones are dead on arrival. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

ok I realize that this can be really annoying, but as a last resort, you can get a nintendo emulator such as pocket nes and play lots of those games....i know that all of the games you mentioned are for nintendo(never heard of bubble bobble though)

You have a jornado with 32MB but you don't say how much of that is empty for program use. If you have installed as much stuff as I have then that 32MB could be almost used up.

That is usually the number one reason for a game to bounce back to the selection screen.
