There you go, dualSwan 1.2 released.
Still no sound, and some games are below 20FPS, but the re-write was worth it!
Why? Because now some games are running in full speed and even passes it (200FPS baby!).
dualSwan will work only with CF/SD based flashcarts, and will load any WonderSwan ROM that is smaller then 4MB (Need to write dynamic bank loading…).
The SPU isn’t yet emulated - this means there is no sound.
Sources are released too. You are free to modify and re-release your own version (Something like unofficial Goomba) but please don’t claim it yours.
I was working hard on this emulator to make it what it is now, even if it’s not perfect yet.
I’d appreciate any positive comments, as well as Donations and clicks on the site’s ads.
Download on dualSwan’s official page.
Great, I’ll be sure to try dualSwan out when I get the chance. Keep up the good work!
Very good start for a wonderswan emulator on DS.
i’m looking forward the evolution of this emu, keep up the good work.
thanks
How do you use GBFS? All I have is a flashcard and no SD or CF hardware…
Heres a version i did the other day which works on my m3sd as it uses a newer FAT lib
dam stupid thing didnt add the link
Thanks for this emu!!
Into the rom selector i dont see nothing, only a cursor, nothing more, this is normal?
I im a SCSD user.
Bye
this is excellent - i own a wonderswan and many games, but can see it gathering dust in the not too distant future.
am particularly keen to see beatmania WS working at full speed. it’s a class game.
the menu system seems fine to me - dead intuitive -
would it be too much to beg a list on your site of current games which work at full speed?
it’d give an idea too how your dev is going.
keep up the good work - the WS was a brilliant handheld and this will bring it to new age gamers. ironic that it was a nintendo handheld ( gba) which killed it off.
all the best!

I wish their was GBFS because LiraNuna has done a great job on it and I would like to try it out.
I have the same problem with my SCSD…but I can’t wait to make it work.
Does it need a rom builder to recognize roms?
Ohhh, I see. WonDerS v1.1 has GBFS but other versions of WonDerS and dualSwan don’t… why is that?
because most people have SD/CF adaptors these days
I don t understand your answer normatt.I have a sd card and dualswan still refuse to recognize any rom.I ve tried to use old gbfs but I failled so please help me!
Normmatt released a version where it can read ROMs from SD based cards: Here
Yes but my sd card still refuse to recognize something and launch the emu without any rom.
This roms works on wonders 1.1 so i don t understand the problem
You should use the .ds.gba version renamed to .nds
Thanks but i ve re-download normatt version and it s only 19kb instead of the 121kb when I first download it…No luck for me.I ve already rename the normatt version but it still don t recognize rom.A builder would be great help I think.
Thanks for your answer
Sorry it was 19 kb only in pocket heaven,your link works great…
The devs aren’t thinking of the flashcart users these days… *sigh* I guess I should buy a GBAMP then I wouldn’t have to beg for GBFS support.
Wait a minute I have a gbamp cf,but it need flashing the ds to work and I m afraid of crashing my ds.Am I right?
Are you talking about flashing your GBAMP or your DS? If you are flashing your GBAMP there is nothing that can go wrong really and if you are flashing your DS just plug it into power and tape the battery in while you are doing it. You’ll be fine.
Yes I ve tried but there s(one more time)a problem,it need to shut down after flashing the card and seems to forget the modification…
Thats strange…
Anyway, I got WonDerS 1.1 running on my flash card with GBFS and this is a great emulator. The speed was not very good but I bet it is a lot better in later versions. The graphics were amazing I barely saw any graphical errors while playing Mr. Driller.
That exacty what I think,i ve try with my incredible coding skill(level 0) to use good old gbfs with dualswan 1.2 but it failed.But I think it s just a question of time.
It still refuse to work.I hope the rom loader will work one day…
