Sucks that nobody has ever made a gba emulator for the ds. I know its possible, if they can make sega, snes, and gb emulators for it then surely it is possible to make a gba emulator.

 

3DS?

 

The original DS had enough power to play GBA games. I'll agree that the i series might not have, but the originals and L series had the hardware to. No one was interested enough in finding out how to access it in DS mode though.

Edit - Specs, at least the ones that I think are important to show my point.

GBA
CPU:
16.8 MHz 32-bit ARM7TDMI with embedded memory
Memory:
32 kilobyte + 96 kilobyte VRAM (internal to the CPU), 256 kilobyte WRAM (outside the CPU).

DS
CPUs: Two ARM processors
32 bit ARM946E-S main CPU; 67 MHz clock speed.
32 bit ARM7TDMI coprocessor; 33 MHz clock speed.
RAM: 4 MB of mobile RAM

As you can see, the DS's hardware was superior to the GBA. Saying that the DS lacks the power to emulate GBA games is like saying that the GBA lacks the power to emulate GBC games.

The issue is that in the original and L series is that we never could figure out how to access the hardware to play GBA games in DS mode. As for the DSTwo, it bypasses this issue by mainly using oncard hardware for emulation, instead of the DS's hardware.

But still, the main issue is the original and L series themselves. We didn't need a emulator, since we could just use a GBA flashcard. I'm willing to bet that if the orginal series lacked the ability to play GBA games, then we would have had a emulator for it since that would have been the only option.

I know that the presence of GB/C emulators for the GBA does weaken this arguement, but at that time it was proably more of a "Lets experiment"decision then anything, although GB was justifiable since at the GBA's release, the odd's of finding GB gamepacks would have been next to 0.

 

guys,is it possible to play this gba game in an r4?? kernel is wood

@Aeither-i meant a nintendo ds lite

 

Yes.

Here is a GBA emulator for the DS.

It's still buggy and compatability is low but its worth watching.

 

Megaupload is down...

 

No shit

 

Oh no! How did it happen? The end is here!

 

Dammit its because of the friggin fact of SOPA.

maybe you have to make an nds rom of it in an other update but nice work

 

Lol I'm the beta tester and I tested only the first version .Since the next update didn't even get released yet.

 

^You can also, use VBA (I actually use an R4 to play romhacks...)

Answer is above here ^^^^ sorry!

 

Anyone still continuing this?
it would be awesome if anyone has been patching the bugs or adding features in their spare time
i was really keen for this to happen
but poor communication i guess and lack of motivation
and now it looks very dead

 

We've stopped.

 

Nice will give it a try is it still work under progress

 

It's been dead for ages.

 

I knew that and I've been dead on this forum for ages -_-

 

Oh lol they should have continued it
