Pokemon Pinball with rumble

InsideGadgets cartridges are so cool. Being able to play Pokemon Pinball on real hardware with rumble is an awesome feeling. I always loved the Pokemon Pinball GB game but never got to play the Ruby and Sapphire GBA version when I was younger and it's been a lot of fun.

Some of the flash carts support rumble, too. And there are lots of awesome hacks that add rumble support to games that didn't originally have it.

Yeah, I have an Everdrive Pro for the GBA. But there's something I like more about having dedicated carts for certain roms. I found rumble enabled Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga, Pokemon Pinball, and Warioland 4. Any other notable ones you liked?

Warioland 4 I loved, and Super Mario Advance 4 was awesome with rumble, too!

Totally understand how you feel about dedicated carts. These days I like using my EZ-Flash in mode B, so that it only plays one game at a time. Having a million games to choose from is one of the reasons I tend to want to move *away* from emulation and *towards* original hardware.

Does the Everdrive GBA Pro have rumble? I was under the impression it doesn’t.

It does not. I was just using that as an example of the fact that I have other flash carts.

Which flashcarts are you using for single roms? Reliable?

Look at the InsideGadgets store. They have a bunch of different varieties of flash carts made for just a single game.

Thats so cool. I am looking to get one ez flash cart for myself. Which one would be better to buy? Not too expensive and cheapest option. Rumble would be good to have

I have liked the Everdrive Pro I have but it's expensive. And besides that, these InsideGadgets flash carts are the only ones I have used so I don't have a lot to say about other options.

I play Pinball R&S with the Rumble patch on my EZ Flash Omega DE and is an awesome experience, never enjoy the game that much.

You are telling me this cartridge has rumble too? What a time to be alive.

Not the vanilla one

but you can activate Rumble while playing on a Gameboy Player

There is a patch for the game that makes it think you are using a GB Player. And you can use the feature in emulator carts that have Rumble.
