there isn't even a NES emulator...learn 2 think.

unregistered, thats not that smart, cause the GBA and the ARM Clie has the same CPU core in common and is therefor easier to emulate. So .... learn 2 think ;) .

Well it wasn't possible to emulate a GBA until recently, so I reckon it'll be a while before we see any decent ones I reckon.
I'm not sure about the internals of a GBA, but if it uses any coppers then emulation will be even harder (This is why emulating things like Amigas needs so much CPU power - the amount of bloody coppers the things have means you effectively have to emulate 4 CPUs :P)

OK, so its a GB, not a GBA emulator, but this has been done since the Palm IIIc days. Its nothing new, and an update was released in December to cater for the Tungsten T.

Go try out Liberty at http://www.ardiri.com/index.php?redir=palm&cat=liberty.

Given that this is out there - GBA is just a matter of time.

Well, I talked a bit with Mike Ethetton, co-author of Liberty with Ardiri. He's the guy that wrote the emulation core code (ardiri did "only" the framework part). He said that we'll have a 100% emulated GBC soon, with a great speed. He also said GBA emulation is possible, just a bit hard at the moment.

However another great GB emulator is Phoenix, and it's FREEWARE OPENSOURCE :)
