Kururin Squash! is an action-puzzle video game developed by Eighting and published by Nintendo. It was released only in Japan on October 14, 2004. The game is the successor to Kururin Paradise and is the only title of the Kururin series with 3D computer graphics.

GBA Link Support

This game has GBA Link features that are properly emulated using VBA-M and Dolphin.

Problems

Garbage Text

The game will show garbage text rather than Japanese by default, to fix this simply tick the box under Config > Display that says "Set Console to NTSC-J"

Sound Issues and Freezes

Sound desynchs frequently on HLE (newer 2014 builds not tested yet) causing the game to often crash, the music looping incorrectly, with instruments missing, or garbage sound effects randomly playing. Despite these issues, the game can be finished.

Abnormallexty Thin Text

With the emulator's default options, the font for kanji can display extremely thin (1 pixel) as opposed to it showing properly as a thick font with grey pixels around the edges. This is a problem with Dolphin's included font files, which in the stable 4.0.2 release are low resolution and may be hard to read. As of 4.0-5097, the Japanese fonts have been replaced by the free Droid Sans Japanese font (released under the Apache 2 license) which is much closer to the look of the original hardware, and can be downloaded here for use with any revision. Optionally, for pixel-perfect kanji display you can rip fonts from your own console by following the instructions here.
