    I've just started doing some coding for my GBA, and I know a couple more people here that code for it too.
    I'm just wondering if anyone else codes for the GBA, or for similar devices, and has useful info/links.

    I'm using the (gcc) dev kit from www.gbadev.org and reading
    tutorials from devrs.com/gba

    Sounds deadly!

    I have a GBA too, how do you transfer your code from the PC to the GBA? Is it similar to that thing you can get in Hong-kong that lets you download games (illegally) for free?

    it is cool. there's something about seeing your own proggies running on the GBA. nerdy, but cool.

    there's a couple of ways to do the transfer -
    you can use the flash linker from Hong Kong -
    it's a cable, a rewriteable kart and a docking station thingy for the kart. you hook it up to your parallel port and transfer your binary over to the kart, bung it in the GBA and away you go.

    there's another cable that connects from your parallel port
    to the GBA directly, with a 256k binary size limit.

    You can also just run an emulator on the pc - this is the free option.

    You'll fing links to lik-sang (where I got my stuff) on gbadev.org.

    Might just stick with the emulator for a while until I've finished my Leavin Cert and have some cash :)
