I see :) An emulator as opposed to an Emulator, how supremely foolish of me :)
I shall go and hide myself away =) Well at least go back to my Arm7-TDMI EVM
until I can get my hands on a real GBA or a software emu without paying Ninty
squillions of francs.
There I was so hopeful., anyway, since there are obviously people in the know
here. A few questions that may get answered by any chance?
1. The sound.. 8Bit granted, but is it the TDMI standard 4channel sound using
the 'Chord' type dacs (logarithmic as opposed to linear dacs) or is it a custom
Ninty designed sound chip, or some hack that lies between?
2. What speed does the AGB CPU run at? I've heard reports from 16MHZ upto
60MHZ, and I'm very puzzled as to what the actual speed is going to be.. My EVM
runs at up to 75MHZ and I've just got no sensible figure as to what to expect
from a AGB in reallife..
