Game Boy Advance homebrew designed to emulate the Inrou-Kun, a GameCube pedometer.

Using Extrems' Corner's GBA-as-controller project as a base, it can turn any GBA with a GBA-to-GCN cable into a working Inrou-Kun.

User guide

The Inrou-Kun worked exclusively with the GameCube title Ohenro-San: Hosshin no Dojo.

To use this homebrew ROM, copy the file to an appropiate flashcart, then attach the GBA-to-GCN Cable (DOL-011) to the Game Boy Advance.

Finally, attach the cable to Controller Port 4 of the GameCube or Wii system.

User guide

From the Main Menu, select Edit Data to edit information the Game Boy Advance will send to the GameCube.

To actually send data to the GameCube, select Send Data from the Main Menu. Only when the Game Boy Advance displays this screen will the ROM emulate the Inrou-Kun pedometer. The process is automatic.

Controls

Edit Data:

D-Pad - Edit specific entries

A - Move down the list

L/R - Switch between pages

B - Return to the main menu
