Since there are always games that will need to be patched with some sort of fix. This thread will contain posts showing intructions for individual games. If you would like to submit any, please PM me.
Look at each post below for the fixes.
If you get any error(s), Make sure:
- The ROM is an original, untouched rom.
- The ROM is the right region needed by the patch (doesn't matter if the needed rom is out of your region anyway)

Since the links for the downloads are constantly broken, I've uploaded the patches here as well:

FAQs

Spoiler

Q: Can You Tell me where can I download the ROMs needed?
A: No, Piracy is illegal. Anyone posting links or asking for ROMs may be punished.

Q: I've patched the ROM but it still does not work, what now?
A: It could be that your flashcart's firmware is outdated or your flashcart itself is outdated.

Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks

Spoiler

Since Spirit Tracks is a some what tricky game to get running, I'm going to make this post on getting it to work. Not much instructions to follow but just to save people the time, here it is:

First you will need the original USA ROM. It should be named:
xpa-lzst.nds

Make sure it is named that, otherwise this will not work.


Download this fix pack
Unzip the pack you just downloaded and place the files inside it in the same directory as your .nds rom.
Make sure all files including the rom is in the same directory





To start the patch, Double-click the .bat file to patch the rom. Allow it to do its job, after it finishes, it should give you a new 'patched' version of the game.





Copy the patched rom file and the .sav file to your SD Card. Rename the .sav file to the same name as the .nds file.





Spirit Tracks should now work fine. If not, you should try upgrading your Flashcart System Files.



Remember to try this before asking any questions about it

I actualy made a topic like this one, but didn't have as much as you.

[Pob3008]

I have Ds lite and R4 card and was wondering if there is going to be a fix for Sonic classic collection? Any advice would be great, thanks.

For anyone who might still be using the original R4 card, Firmware called wood R4 has about 99% compatibility and plays the above mentioned game.
