GBA-Emulator, why not possible?

**woehrl** · 02-07-2005,01:52 PM

I know that there is no GBA-Emulator for the PS2.
But I found the sourcecode from VisualBoyAdvance at sourceforge, and why doesn't nobody rewrite it so that it works on the PS2? It is too difficult?

Here is the link for the source code: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/v...2.zip?download

Poeple who have the intelligents on this forum, just don't have the time. Poeple on this forum that really want this emulator, don't have the intelligents to make it.

Anyway, GBA emulator is old hat, What everyone should be asking for is a Nintendo DS emulator, (which if done will play GBA roms anyway). A port of it has already been started for the PC, just waiting for someone to start it for the PS2.

Let me say it before anyone else does, "The playstation is not powerful enought to run an emulator like this!", well i say, "Rules are made to be broken, make the impossible possible!"

Well, here are the specs for the GBA & DS:

GBA Specs:

DS Specs:

So it is probably possible to be able to run a GBA &/or a DS Emu on PS2.

if a ds emu came out for ps2 wouldnt you need a mouse so you could use the touch screen?

we barely just got a gameboy emulator here.. lol... i think ds is a bit far fetched..by the time there is a ds emulator even for PC the ps2 will be dead

maybe the homebrew and emulation will survive like dreamcast's did.

**Drakonite** · 03-13-2006,03:42 AM

Homebrew on PS2 is still getting started.
