[QUESTION] Implementing game reset

Open Kyhze opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

Is it possible to implement the soft game reset like on real hardware? The L + R + Start + Select reset combo. It would be more convenient than having to restart the console each time! Not sure if the hardware allows it tho.

If you mean switching games without rebooting it's not possible. I explained why in #21. A reset back to the BIOS is definitely possible.

No I did not mean for switching games, just resetting the game currently being played. So yeah, a reset back into the BIOS. Preferably with a button combo for example.

I'd love for there to be some sort of menu or something triggered via button combo, but I don't see it happening. Maybe X or Y could be a modifier key, with X+UP and X+DOWN for brightness, and X+START for reset to BIOS?

A menu will happen later. And to implement this quite a bit of other work has to be done. There are 2 ways this can be implemented: Either patching the game to add this feature or triggering reset some other way by the 3DS side.

Actually, you can reset most games using A+B+Select+Start.
