VBA GX
Author: Tantric
(taken from http://code.google.com/p/vba-wii/)

A Game Boy/Game Boy Color/Game Boy Advance emulator based on VBA-M, ported to the Wii and GameCube. The code is a continuation of Softdev and emu_kidid's efforts, and uses libogc and devkitppc. The GUI is powered by libwiigui.

Features

* Wiimote, Nunchuk, Classic, and Gamecube controller support
* SRAM and State saving
* IPS/UPS/PPF patch support
* Custom controller configurations
* SD, USB, DVD, SMB, Zip, and 7z support
* Compatiblity based on VBA-M r927
* MEM2 ROM Storage for fast access
* Auto frame skip for those core heavy games
* Turbo speed, video zooming, widescreen, and unfiltered video options

well if you could give a little bit more information about the little fixes and tweaks, that would be nice...
please search before you ask - a lot has been discussed already!

Does this emulator have 7z or zip support on gamecube? Doesn't seem to work for me.

Hi there , the lastest version from Google Code , are tooo sloowly in Gamecube

im using "Swiss 0.2 r94" , NTSC Console , First Model , Modchip : XenoGC 1.01 , NTSC Revision 1.0 , Drive Version 6.

Someone can compile a version more fast ???

==============================================================================

If possible , all programmers , can make a new multi-emulator , for Gamecube & Wii , using the source code of "Mednafen WIP" ??? , i use that emulator under (Arch)Linux i think its genial.

The source can be downloaded from Here : http://forum.fobby.net/index.php?t=thread&frm_id=4&

Another thing , i think its better , if all emulators , like : Fceuxgx , Snes9xgx , vbaxgx , genplus , smsplus , cube64 , wiisx , all have the same methor to Return to Menu , using the Gamcube controller.

the last thing , when i press "Exit" to "Return to loader" , the Gamecube depend of emulator , make one of 3 this

1 - Black Screen
2 - Hexadecimal Errors
3 - Reboot the console

Do you think guys this emulator would one day emulate gameboy advance games to be playable on the gameboy? I mean, I have not tested the wii version, but gameplay in gamecube is very slow for gameboy advance roms. That´s why if I want to play gameboy advance I actually use the EZFlash iv on real hardware.

^ I would say your best way to experience GBA on GC is get a cheap GameBoy Player in conjuction with your EZ Flash cart and if you dont have the GB Player boot disc use an image with swiss.

I also have problems with VBAGX speed, is there any solution for it or GC hardware is not enough to run it full speed? Still it's kinda strange as PSX emulator works pretty well.

i have a question to ask on the compatblity of the GBA games:
which work fine and how many of them work?
is there a compatablity list somewhere that shows which games wrk and which have issues etc?

i mean for example: Zelda minish cap works fine or zelda A Link to The Past??

Nope. The best way to find the answer is to try it out yourself.

Is there going to be an Update?

I hate going to the Gamecube Controller to go to the Emulator menu

I want it like SNES9X GX Emulator menu L + R + X + Y on a Digital Pad
