Why do some of the r4 games not work?

So some games like Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days and more don't work like other games do for my r4. For instance, M%26amp;L freezes up when you select a file. Zelda freezes when "Nintendo" comes up. Hearts gets a black screen after starting the game. Is there a way to fix this or is there a source where I can download fixed ones? I've tried multiple sites like hkortz and romulation but they all end up the same.Why do some of the r4 games not work?
It's not the game it's your firmware. I'm assuming your using the official latest firmware..1.18 or something. Well it's pretty damn bad and hasn't been updated for a fair few years now, so is obviously out dated.

This is a great firmware and is updated regularly.



If your not sure how to replace it then open up your R4 on your PC and delete everything that's not a game, that'll be your old firmware. BACK IT UP IN CASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG! Copy it to your desktop or something before you delete it.



Now, With the woods firmware you'll have the _rpg and the _ds menu.dat files. Copy these to your R4 card. This'll be your new firmware. Put your card back into the R4 and boot up your DS. You'll see the loading screen will have changed slightly, all you have to do is click on the game you want and it should work fine.



Hope this helps :).





Your R4 card files should now look like





_rpg

_ds menu.dat



Note there might be games in between these 2 files. They also CAN NOT BE INSIDE OTHER FOLDERS, JUST THE _RPG folder and the _DS menu.dat file should be there themselves, not in a folder together or in any other folders it won't work if you do so.Why do some of the r4 games not work?
I used to have the same problem on those exact games on my R4, get the ysmenu on your R4 and they should work just fine.
