Somewhat. Vba v0.4(?) kinda works, but not to good. If you put the sound on (which is bleeps and bloops anyway) then it`ll freeze your psp and you have to restart it manually. However once it you put it at 333 and 5 frameskip, its just mildy slow and choppy. We`re almost there...

At this point I'd say it's not worth it. Every GBA game I've tried runs way too slow to tolerate. Eventually we'll probably have an emulator that runs at a good speed.

why is it so hard to create a good gba emulator, aren't the graphics like SNES but a bit smoother?

Because you need to understand how the GBA works and how it handles the games, data etc. Making a emulator isnt easy. And it takes time

For a start its CPU is about 30 times as fast. Add that to the fact that it can perform a lot more 2D effects by hardware and itris infinitley more difficult to emulate than SNES.
