If you’re a Wario Land 4 fan, get ready to bump up your treasure hunting experience to a new level of immersion. The "Jungle Rumble!" patch brings comprehensive rumble support to the original Game Boy Advance classic, by providing tactile feedback for many in-game actions and events. A convenient toggle in the save selection menu lets you easily turn the feature on or off.
Playing on a GameCube? This patch also adds the rare Game Boy Player rumble feature, making Wario Land 4 rumble when played with a GameCube controller. It is the first-ever homebrew patch to add this feature to an officially released Game Boy Advance title.
This patch is compatible with most hardware and emulators, including:
- Game Boy Advance
- EZ-FLASH Omega Definitive Edition flashcart
- insideGadgets 32MB 256Kbit FRAM rumble flashcart
- GameCube with Game Boy Player
- MiSTer hardware emulators
- Analogue Pocket
- with rumble-compatible flashcarts (see above)
- openFPGA-GBA core + Nintendo DS Rumble Pak*
- mGBA emulator
Let's get greedy and grab the patch from the releases section. Wario would probably demand a cut of the profits, but thankfully this patch is free.
