MD5 AE6B4BA657B1CECDB4B139C3C839C426 NTSC (Verified) GBA games: Pokémon Sapphire (PAL) and official GBA link cable.

Selecting 'Go to List' or using the Deposit option freezes the game. Also happens when using a official memory card 251 & 59. Tested Ruby (PAL) too, and it did the same thing. The PAL version of Pokémon Box also freezes at the same place. Not sure if this was discussed in the forum. In any case, I'll put it up here anyway.

So I tried 3.388, 3.389 & 3.394 out of curiosity, and it still freezes.

well 388 and 389 are just for video modes no game compat was done.

On the newest version of Nintendont I'm having the same issue. Everything seems to be working except when you go to list either in the way the OP had in the video or by pressing x and selecting go to list. I can go to the boxes, save back to the cartridge and use it seems like most of the features without issue (other than Adventure mode).

I am using the NTSC version of Pokemon Box with an official GBA cable connected to a first gen GBA. I'm using a Wii and it does the same behavior if I launch Nintendont via Homebrew or WiiFlow Lite. I've tested it using Pokemon Ruby, Emerald and FireRed all with the same results. I'm not sure what would be causing the crash but it happens 100% of the time if you select the go to list selection.

On a side note I've played the other GC pokemon games that use the GBA and so far haven't run into issues so I'm pretty confident that my cable and GBA is solid.

I'm sure I've forgotten to report something that would be useful in troubleshooting this so just let me know if you need any more info.

Experiencing this issue as well, downloaded a couple different iso files and experienced the same issue with each, freezing only seems to occur when opening list function, everything else works perfectly.

I haven't re-tested this in years so I'll close this for now. This can reopened if a fix is in progress.

the bug is still there since forever, it was never ffixed, entering list crashes and you cant actually play the games either, i have no idea how to fix any of this and with any active dev gone im guessing it wont ever be fixed.
