How to load GBA freeware on SNES:
1. First you must buy a micro SD card. It would be enough if you buy "~1GB" or "~2GB", they're inexpensive now.2. Download freeware. (Don't download commercial titles, it would be illegal even if you have the same physical copies!)
3. Copy those files to the micro SD card on your PC. "Micro SD card - USB converter" would be useful if your PC is old.
*NOTE*
Before coping ".gba" file, you should confirm that the ".gba" file has a correct header.
Open that ".gba" file using binary editor. (It would be enough if you use freeware. Find it.)
For example, open "Dangerous Xmas" file. ( DangerousXmas.bin )
You must copy the correct header to #00 ~ #90 rows from another freeware first.
Then change the first 2 bytes at the #B0 row into "30 30", otherwise the game would not be loaded on real SNES+ AD Adapter.
There are very few titles which have no data at all in the row #B0. Don't worry that you don't add anything after column #2.
Don't forget to change the extension (.bin to .gba).
Copy this DangerousXmas.gba showed above to your micro SD card. The game would be loaded successfully.

How to load GB, GBC, NES, SMS/GG/SG-1000 & PCE freeware on SNES:

Screens:
Note:
1. You can also create folders in the micro SD card to classify files by consoles.
2. * = X button. Common combinations are "X+Start" and "X+L".
"X+Start" actually overwrite your save file (.sav). Mostly GBA titles are saved successfully, however,
some GBA carts require you to press "X+Start" after you've done saving process.
"X+L" makes the system return to the menu screen showed above. You don't have to reset your SNES console after you played 1 title.
How to load Colecovision freeware on SNES:
1. Download "C.o.G", that was coded by "Hive", then extract it.2. Doubleclick "CoG.exe", then click "Add" and choose 1 Colecovision freeware you want to play.
3. Click "Build CoG >". Now "cog.gba" file would be created at C: folder automatically.
4. Open that "cog.gba" using a binary editor (it's enough even if it's freeware).
You must copy the correct header to #00 ~ #90 rows from another freeware first.
Then change the first 2 bytes at the #B0 row into "30 30". Otherwise the game would not be loaded on real SNES+ AD Adapter.
Now only you have to do is copying this "cog.gba" to your micro SD card.
But I strongly recommend you to change the file name before copying. (eg. "santa-must-save-christmas.gba" )
Colecovision Freeware examples:
 "Santa's Gift Run" by Dale Wick in 2004 Throw gifts toward chimneys. You cannot enter next level even if you fail only one gift. |
 "Santa Must Save Christmas" by Michel Louvet in 2011 Press a button to catch xmas gifts to gain the score. Avoid bombs, otherwise you will die immediately. |
 "Easter Bunny" by Daniel Bienvenu in 2007 Chuckie Egg clone controlling a cute rabbit. |
 "Jeepers Creepers" by Daniel Bienvenu in 2007 Halloween themed simple action game. |
 "Module Man" by Mystery Man in 2013 Port from Dragon 32 game by Ryan Olsen in 1984. |
 "Shump!" by Imanok in 2013 Well-done 2D shooter. |
 "Stray Cat" by Imanok in 2009 Simple action game which screen scrolls at high speed. |
 "Quest For The Golden Chalice" by Team Pixelboy in 2012 Well-done action adventure game. |
