# Is It Analogue Pocket?

This ROM tries to see if the device running a Game Boy or Mega Duck ROM is an Analogue Pocket by:

- inspecting Sound Wave RAM power-on values.

- 

# For now it appears to detect properly in the following scenarios:

DMG style (Wave RAM detection):

* When not running in cart-header enabled CGB mode

  * Game Boy / Color in Analogue Pocket cartridge slot

  * Game Boy / Color in .pocket format ("GBStudio Creations")

* Game Boy fpga core

* Mega Duck fpga core 

GBC Style (courtesy of @Lorenzooone):

* Running in cart-header enabled CGB mode

  * Game Boy Color in Analogue Pocket cartridge slot

  * Game Boy Color in .pocket format ("GBStudio Creations")

  * Game Boy Color fpga core

# It does not detect in the following scenario:

* Running in **cart-header no-CGB-support** mode

  * Game Boy Color fpga core
