Apparently the real hardware doesn't like me doing a memcpy to copy an array to another one, especially when the two data types for the arrays aren't the same. I have no idea why it worked on the DeSmuME, but it shouldn't have. The operation only occurs once (to copy my palette array from tiles.h to the BG_PALETTE memory) so I won't lose much sleep by turning that into a for loop. The updated version works on real hardware and No$GBA (and DeSmuME still). And just in time for Planet Earth too. =)</p> Found the bug.

Could be my code that's bad or it could just be my flash cart is finicky. I hope it's the latter. It seems to work fine in DeSmuME, but not in Dualis nor No$GBA. I'll investigate further later this week. Maybe investing in No$GBA's debugger is a good idea.</p> Hmm, it seems IQDS won’t run on my hardware.
