June 25, 2006PSPVBA - A Gameboy Advance Emulator!
Posted by greg
Great news, all the Gameboy Advance lovers rejoice! ZX-81 has once again bedazzled us all, this time porting VisualBoyAdvance, a Gameboy Advance emulator, to the PSP!
Few notes from ZX-81…
PSPVBA is a port on PSP of the Linux version 1.7.2 of VisualBoyAdvance with SDL support.
It’s a first beta release, and as we could expect, it doesn’t run full speed!
I’ve done many optimizations to reach the full speed, in particular I’ve translated all the original source code from C++ to pure C language for performance purposes, but that’s not enough…
Nevertheless, all required features for an emulator are already present: sound, “save states”, customizable keys mapping, screenshots, etc…
The sound support is based on the work of psp298, but it is not really good (mainly due to speed).
As per the usual with all ZX-81 releases, you may refer to the included README.txt for installation and usage detail.
Download PSPVBA v1.0.1 - the package includes both binaries for 1.50 and 2.0-2.60, and the ported source code.
Enjoy!

ZOMG NO. 1! SWEET GBA EMU. NICE WORK!
does it work 4 2.7
nothing works on 2.7 so far exept if u have the undiluted platinum chip or flash games so far
is the game boy emu anygood?
to load Roms
press select when it loads the space shooter
to go to the menu the pick you rom
the after you pick you Roms
press R
to reset the gba the lode the rom
Yup good emulator now u just gotta find roms LOL!!!
hows the speed? imma run this good looking creator
This is awesome. Now we will finally have a working GBA emulator. And ZX-81 always updates his emus so this one I KNOW will finally work.
Sounds great I can’t wait until some more devloped ones are released. Keep up the good work boss.
meh, still runs too slow 4 me but alot faster than previous GBA emus
thanks ZX-81, but i agree ith “ME” still much to slow, yet a bit faster than previous roms, hopefully ZX-81 keeps the updates coming…
One q’n (always asked) Does it work 2.0+
Also if u want roms: http://www.emuparadise.org/index2.php and click GBA
NO POSTING LINKS TO ISOs!! IDIOT. but anyway great emu.
finally we got a gba emulator with sound. Hopefully ZX-81 will make more updates to make this emulator working awesome on our psp’s. U FUCKING ROCK ZX-81.
Still rather slow and not every game runs but its good to hear some news about this.
finally. Seems like this is much needed. Please continue trying to update this. We all have full confidence in your abilities after your previous emulators. We are all very thankful.
DarkPacMan77
Holy shit, hopefully this gets better, but looks fucking sweet so far!!!!
Good work ZX81!!!! Keep the awseome shit coming!
Keep up your good work ZX-81! Really Great!!! Thank you!
Beautiful emulator! Compatability seems better than previous GBA emus and speed is slightly better as well. I’m very happy to see this is the work of ZX-81, a very capable coder with a history of following up on his projects. I look forward to future releases.
Now just got 2 find ROMS… I think i will stick 2 ISO’s and not ROMS rofl.
Great as always ZX-81.
Keep up the good work ZX-81…
Great coding - please concentrate on the speed enhancements if possible… Gr8 stuff so far… Look forward to your next release!!!
Does this emulator works well? Sorry if i made some mistakes in my comment , this is because i am from russia and i don’t know english well.
hi i got eloader to work on my psp 2.60 but when i try to run any thing with it like snes emu or gba emu or an app the screen goes blank and then the psp switches off. can n e 1 help? tnx edfuk
ZX-81 is the man
anyone know a percentage as to the speed of the emulator compared to the original gba??
I already had a GBA Emulator for psp :|
i had a GBA EMULATOR too which is better than this.PSPVBA SUX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it depends on the rom you are playing for example fire emblem is much faster on the gbapsp but be patient this is a first release and already a top of the line piece of homebrew
Its just the first release , of course it wont run at full speed.. its just to show ppl that a serious coder is working on it and that we can expect a full working version someday.
it runs rather slow just like the other GBA emulator
PS im on fw 2.6
it says in the description thats its not full speed.. however this author has been kick ass for the psp so far so i have alot of faith in this emu, it will get better.. im all in
…ZX-81 is not really a man but a robot that just gets smarter and smarter…I can’t beleive the amount of releases this guy has done.
this emu is the best. i was wondering if anybody know if kingdom hearts work on it b/c i cant make it work.
I still think the N64 emulator is more worth while, because the GBA is already portable. Now when has there been a portable Nintendo 64? The games are better too.
Yea gba is a portable system…but dont u really wanna carry around a GBA and a PSP everywhere?…
I think this gba emulator will really do some good…so keep up with the good work and dont give up on us!
wow! i’m really happy to see someone working on the GBA emus again. this is the first emu that i’m ever gunna use that ZX-81 has ever developed. but great news keep up the work.
hey does anybody know how to make kingdom hearts chain of memories work????
need help
i appreciate the work zx-81 but i was also wondering if you could play kingdom hearts chain of memories on the pspgba
yeah me too does anybody know how to work kh on pspgba
