      So I just installed the latest version of retropie, and I fired it up on my Pi2, working great! I absolutely love it. But I have a question and I didn't know if it was more support or what. I am a huge Zelda fan and I just started playing Oracle of Seasons for the GBC which can link with Oracle of Ages to swap stuff. I see lr-tgbdual will allow for the same game to be run in two instances, which is pretty cool. But is there a way to run two "different" games, ie these two Zelda games that can link, so I can eventually transfer files?

        @jediknight36 you don't have to link the those 2 zelda's. The games offers a password that you can use on the next game after you beat one of them.

          @lostless I appreciate that! It transfers everything over? I see the snakes in the seed shop asking about the link.

            @jediknight36 they should all work with a password. I did it back in the day when those games came out and I had no link cable. But it’s been so many years, my memory is a tad fuzzy.

              @jediknight36 Use the secrets menu when you start a new game. Thats where you enter the password. no link cable required.
