    Boot with Add On is how you access the menu on GBA games by pressing L+R+Start, just FYI. You can save state, load state and exit back to the UI from there. You can also write to NOR flash with Add Ons so you can access the menu when booting from NOR flash.

    The NOR Flash is extremely useful for Pokemon fans, since GBA Pokemon games are ridiculously expensive these days, and being able to make DSs see the flash cart as, say, Pokemon Emerald, you can move Pokemon from GBA up to the DS Pokemon games, which is unique to this flash cart, as the Everdrive cannot do this.

    I bought the Omega shorty after it was out and love it. Wanted another one but they were ran out of parts because of the pandemic and I got a revised one. That one doesn't come with another shell to fit flush with the DS lite though like the first one though.
    I saw this and was intrigued but I don't think it's worth the upgrade for me but it's nice to have for others. And if it's too pricy the Omega is still a great option.

    For pokemon trading, gb and gbc games do not work as they are emulated.
    If you intend to play and trade with gen 1 and 2 pokeman games, ez flash junior can do that as it does not use emulation for gb/gbc. Downside is no cheats, plus side is it has replacable RTC
    If you intend to export saves and trade or use pokehex, ezflash omega ultimate is ok

      I tried loading SNES games on it to test since it wasn't mentioned anywhere but when you go load them it doesn't do anything with the rom files. Only GB/GBC/GBA and NES are supported. Might be nice if they updated it in the future to play Genesis and SNES as well.
