Has anyone looked into mutliplayer gaming yet on the AGB? I'm supposed to
write my game so that up to 4 players can play with just the one
cartridge, but we only have 1 devkit at the moment! Also if I'm writing
this as multiplay, I'm going to have to do lots of code overlays to ensure
that it fits into the available ram, how do I specify this in C/C++?
Talking of C++ has anyone done any performance tests to see if there is
any overhead for C++. Sorry for all the questions but I'm the solo coder
on a project which has to be finished for May!

This is a little off topic but not too far. Can anyone tell me if the GBA will have region locked/ecoded cartridges or is it still "no regions" as per the...

... It's not your fault. The branches in your code are obviously relative and so you can't call any outside functions within your ram-moved code. or you jump...

... hi, the major bottle neck is often the EXRAM & ROM accesses. If your routine spends most it's time copying stuff from rom to ram there is often no big ...
