From the description:

Using this list here: http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Game_Boy_games_with_Link_Cable_functionality

I test out most of them in Retroarch to see if the link cable emulation works.

The ROMS I used need ‘no introduction’ to other emulator fans Most of the games that didn’t work either never detected there was a link at all or detected the link and then glitched in some fashion.

I did not try the Zelda games or other Pokemon games since I am sure these will be thoroughly tried by other people.

I would like to thank this testing process for introducing me to the game Warlocked which looks brilliant! Also I am finding Revelations Demon Slayer to be very, very confusing.

Just Wondering have any the Games that don’t work with GameLink have been Fixed to work or not?

I’ve not tested again yet. Will do so at some point when they’ve released a new version …

Okay. So waiting for RetroArch 1.7.2?

I see the Core in the Buildbot come up with New Stuff.

I tried Pokemon Trading Card with RA 1.7.7 and I can get it to Link but 1 Screen/Gameboy Loads but Other Screen/Gameboy crashes so have to restart with just 1 working

I tried last night Pokemon Trading Card with the TGB Duel Core and it worked fine
