Gameboy Advance on the SPV?


Recommended Posts

I know there is lovely GNUboy that alows you to emulate Gameboy and Gameboy Color roms, but will there also be added support for Advence roms?

I could Imagine that 133mhz isen't enough to emulate the gameboy advance and that the screen is to small.

Anyway know this for sure?

spacemonkey tried to port a gba emulator, but it did not work!

yes it is too slow (processor only runs at 80-90 ish MhZ as well all though

it is a 133 Processor) The screen would be big enough, but it is just not

working!

You'll have to stick to Gameboy (Color) and NES and at the moment

it looks like the SNES emulator is getting better and better!

I am personally still hoping that besides theses projects (all by spacemonkey),

someone will port a sega gamegear emulator...

That leads me to another question (which proberly has been asked 9999 times before) ... any good overclocking utils for the SPV out there (if any at all)?

Nope. Well, not at the moment anyway.. You could possibly make a gameboy advance emulator using assembler I think along with a similar sort of approach as phoenix gameboy emulator on Palm OS as they both have an ARM architecture. However, that would require a hefty amount of work..

So you're saying that there are a posibility that it could be made ... how nice :lol:

Well, there's one for the GP32 console which has a similar architecture to the SPV (but is clocked at the proper speed) - but it would require a LOT of work. I think the point about the screen is also valid - a gamegear would be the next logical system..

All i can say is the more emulators the better:) just find a way to keep the processor from running so damn slow:(

btw: The processor is clocked correctly. Apparently the SPV is effectively dual processor, an 84mhz cpu for the GMS side of operations and a 132mhz cpu for everything else..
