Listen. Its not that the GBA itself is faster. Its just that gba games are built for GBA.

Listen. GBA games are like a train. The pocket PC is a road, and the GBA is a railroad track. A train may go foward on a road, but it wont go as fast because its built for tracks.

That analogy makes no sense... let's just say that GBA games can't be directly run by the ARM procs in PPCs; not only that, but loads of other hardware has to be emulated too.

Fast GBA emulation on current hardware is NOT possible; if it were, it would've been done already. If you're so keen to argue, then make an emulator yourself.

My Results

I found some info here:



Apparently, you can only set the buttons right after a soft reset. I didn't try editing the button file directly.

I cannot use GAPI for some reason, only GDI. And I can only get that one cartridge (GT racing) to work.

On my device (iPAQ 3970) it runs at about 1/7 speed, when rendering every second line, and no sound. With the awkwardness of the buttons, that makes it pretty much unplayable as it is now.

But if they get more cartridges working, increase the performance (GAPI?), and kick out the bugs, it might be playable. At least it will be an interesting curiousity.
