Gameboy Advance Emulator?

(1/3) > >>

mlogans91:
Sorry if this has been done before but I couldn't find anything on it. Since you can do a regular gameboy emulator, would it be possible to emulate any GBA games?

Llorean:
Yes it'd be possible, but on any player except possible the Gigabeat, it would be very, very, very slow.

Strife89:
And some players only have just enough buttons for Game Boy emulation; the Game Boy Advance needs two more.

froggyman:
I think it would be possible to get a decent GBA emulator for Rockbox, they are able to do it with iPod linux ( http://ipodlinux.org/wiki/Igpsp ). They were able to overcome the main problem of speed by overclocking the processor to about 78mhz(up to 81MHz). They problem though is that if you over clock your ipod too much you can end up damaging it (atleast to my understanding, please correct me if I am wrong).

Thats the normal clock speed, so its not overclocked.  I'd expect advance emulation to be fairly fast on the ipod since it uses the same CPU as the Ipod.
