i'm also an old gba dev and the name does not ring a bell for me (I was the old owner of agbdev.net which hosted gbadev.org and many other gba dev sites).

I wait till the 14th to see what comes about.

today is july 11th, it was said that it would be released after july 14th, so everyone has to wait at least 3 more days before they can call this a complete fake.

Yeah, seems like no one can actually come up with any proof that he's a GBA dev, everyone just immediately believes it because Jamie at QJ.net said it (and yet, he was probably told that from Zombi himself >.>). It was one of the reasons I thought you might have some insight here, Monkey, if any of us were to recognize a GBA dev it'd be you.

If you google him even, there's not a single reference to him being a dev--just an entry on ratemybody (lawl) and on a few forums acting pretty unprofessional.

Yeah. I've chatted with a QJ staffer and he is not sure why it was posted (he really does not agree with it). If nothing is given by the 14th, they're just gonna publicly discredit it.

Also i understand coders change nicks (i've done it quite a few times). Yet if I do make reference to old work or a scene i do give out the nick so it's an easy find (in gba i was subbie/subice or nexis2600, google brings up many results).

They also said that he used his gba emu for private use too!

It's the 14th today :-P

Let's see what happens.
Personally I think he's a fake however everyone discredited Yoshihiro and now look! He's contributed to the downgraders that 1000's of PSP users are applying on their PSP's today.

Let's sit back and wait until the end of this day.

^_^ Fingers crossed for a release hehe.
