PSPVBA v1.01 Beta – A New GBA Emulator!
PSPVBA v1.01 is a Gameboy Advance emulator port to the PSP by none other than our resident emulator porting machine, Zx-81, who was featured in a QJ interview earlier today. Zx-81 has pulled away from his habit of producing games for unknown machines and has moved into the mass market! This is a beta release, and so as you can expect doesn’t currently run at full speed, but with the coding powers of Zx-81 behind it, I’m confident that PSPVBA will progress to run many games at full speed in no time.
This said, PSPVBA still features all that you would expect for a Zx release including sound and savegame support; as well as customizable key mapping and the ability to take screenshots. The sound support in this version is also a little jumpy, and is based on the work of psp298.
It’s nice for me to hear about this because the original Gameboy is almost like the grandfather to the PSP. It started the portable console trend, and the Game Boy has sold in the millions over time. No matter how good the graphics are on PSP UMD games, it’s always good to reminisce over what has been. Pokemon, Mario, here we come!
As with all Zx releases, the source code is included, and this is packaged under the GNU public license. You can make any changes to the source you want, but be sure to read Copying.txt beforehand. Further information on VirtualBoyAdvance can be found by clicking here.
