    I don't have an M3 Simply, so I don't know if the firmware will fix your problem or not. However, it's usually a good idea to load the latest firmware. You can find the files at the following site.

    According to the above site, the latest appears to be version 1.14. Give it a try and let us know if it fixed your problem.

    I am having the same problem with R4DS+2gb sandisk for the same game. Would love to get this sorted.

    I have tried V1.18 kernel but lots of games didn't work running a patched version has helped but some still don't work. hope this can be resolved as I really like this card, it has some good features and is very user friendly

    If you are waiting for new R4 software then I am afraid it will be a long wait. After the card was openly sold in Japan Nintendo decided to take action, therefore the card is no longer supported (same with the M3 simply as the software for this card was from the same team)However, there is the Arm7 patch but also I believe there is a replacement operating software (look at GBA temp forums)
