I have used the NESBox Emulator with my dumped Pokemon Emerald .gba and I have used the "Save state" button. I have played a lot on NESBox and now that I would like to use VirtualBoy Advance I cannot load NESBox save file (.save) that I saved my data to, because it errors with "Unrecognized Gave Version".

Does anyone here know how to convert NESBox state files (.save) to VirtualBoy Advance-compatible Save files (.sgm)?

  • Have you tried saving the game normally and migrating the regular save file instead of the save state?

  • @Nolonar NESBox has only a "save state" button. You can view it here: nesbox.com/emulator

  • Yes, but Pokémon has a "Save" option. Have you tried using that?

  • @Nolonar Yes, but it doesn't save to a file. At least it displays to me no file save dialog... I appreciate your help a lot!!!

  • @Jason Most emulators just have a save or battery folder that they put all the game save info on.

Unfortunately, neither the Flash version on the NESBox website nor the Microsoft Store app have saving functionality aside from the save state feature. There is no way to convert a NESBox save state to a save state for any other emulator, because the format and data is specific to the emulator.

  • That's very bad news for me: I have played a lot and now I am going to just have to start again...
