What is a cartridge drive?

Can you play Pokemon Gold on your DS whether putting it on a GBA Flash Drive or Carving notches into the cartridge?

  • Answer:

    No. Pokemon Gold was written for the Game Boy / Game Boy Color. It works on the GBA because the GBA includes the same processor as the Game Boy (a Zilog Z80, if anyone cares). The DS does not include this chip, and thus cannot run Game Boy or Game Boy Color games. There is an emulator that allows playing Game Boy games on the DS, as long as you have a homebrew cartridge and the ROM.
