Ah, at least 75% is still playable.

well since we have windows 95, shouldnt we be able to get a gba emulator for windows 95? i know if you can play starcraft, why not a gba emulator? (im pretty dumb)

edit- by the way, i have a friend mailing me a disk with windows 95 prepackaged all set for psp, because i couldnt find my windows 95 disk, but i found it, but im in crescent city, so its at home..... but when that cd arrives i should just beable to copy the folders to my memstick, and start it up... so i havent actually gotten to mess around with this new windows for psp yet...

and i was kinda wondering if windows 98 would work....?

well see you all on monday

wELL ITS BECAUSE IF YOU TREAT THE psp JUST LIKE A pc...WELL A pc WITH A 333MHZ CPU AND 32MB RAM WOULDNT RUN GBA AT ALL.

a GOOD GBA EMU FOR PSP WOULD BE HARD AND TAKE A LOT OF OPTIMIZATION, NBUT IT IS POSSIBLE....

i hate it when people look at things like this...

never EVER compare your psp or any console to your computer running windows or even linux for that matter (the only exception to that rule is xbox). you need to take into concideration that the psp uses a totally differant processor and handles things much differently from the way your pc does.

anyone try the supposedly updated version of this GBA emulator? mine doesnt seem to wanna activate lol must be the eboot file or something but some guided assistance would be helpful

**Mourningstar** · September 19th, 2005, 05:13

Nope, it probably doesnt work and its probably not an official update....

**ArugulaZ** · September 19th, 2005, 07:46

No, it works, all right. I just don't see why anyone would want to use it. It's really slow right now, and given the complexity of the Game Boy Advance hardware (it IS a 32-bit system, after all), I doubt that will ever change.

Ok i have tried and tried to get the emu on my psp... i get it on there and i shows up but when i go to open a thing pops up saing it can not be open. i have version 2.50 is that a problem. if some one can help me that would be great.

I can help you Gamming,
1: turn off your psp
2: sit in meditation for a while wondering why you didnt browse through this website a month ago (heck even 2 weeks ago).
3: Look through the website and SEE what 2.5 does to your psp
4: If you are STILL not sure (or plain too lazy...then I will tell you blatantly)

Just like the 2.1 users, 2.5 users are SCREWED, wait until 2.5 is cracked (or EVER cracked at all...but of course the hacking of 2.0 was a shock to me but Sony appears determined)

BTW....how did you run into version 2.5? Are you in Japan? For if you are in a country ASIDE from Japan...then I would have to say you made a stupid mistake by upgrading. Unless you wanted that tv function

It's great. It takes up the full vertical section of the screen & it looks amazing.

I can't wait to see the src or an optimised version soon. I wonder if it's doing 333 yet or not.

--edit--

Note the rom must go "PSP/GAMES/VBAPSP/ROM.GBA"

Hi does the renamed rom have to be a zip file or a gba file originally. In other words should I just name the zipped file or unzip it?
