Hack description

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga is one of the few games that rumble the Game Cube controller when played through a Game Boy Player. This patch unlocks the Game Boy Player rumble feature on GBA and adds cartridge rumble support. The original Game Boy Player rumble events are used to trigger the built-in rumble motor of any rumble flash cart, such as:

- insideGadget's GBA 32MB 256Kbit FRAM Rumble cartridge
- EZ-FLASH OMEGA Definitive Edition

The cart itself will rumble when played on GBA but not when played through a Game Boy Player. This is also how Drill Dozer works, which is the only game that officially supports both Game Boy Player and cartridge rumble.

Don't forget to enable the rumble feature in the options menu.

Great improvement if you have a flashcart for it... Great game, and fun to have yet another game with rumble feature enabled for the GBA.
