Dragon Warrior Monsters 2 does not show SGB borders in GBC mode if borders always on

This seems to work on Link's Awakening DX. I don't know if it doesn't work because maybe it has multiple borders while Link's Awakening only has one?

With GBC model but SGB borders always on: bandicam 2021-03-07 23-29-06-744

SameBoy first quietly runs in SGB mode to auto-detect any borders being sent before auto-reset to GBC mode. Typical games transmit data shortly after boot. DWM2 doesn't transfer border until you get past title screen and into main menu.

Tricky problem. Maybe if emulator keeps auto-spam joypad commands to trigger menu it could work..?
