Some of you maybe recognized that there is a new Flash-Linker & Rom for our all beloved GBA. It seems that the flashing speed is rather fast and the whole thing is easy to use (regarding the description and product details). If you want to play all the avaliable homebrewn roms on your real GBA, this might be a way for you.

Details about the product on it’s official page, oders can be placed trough GameGizmo.com

Do you remember the old qBasic game “Gorillas”? Now Ben Stark did a remake for GBA, but read more…

Hello, my name is Ben Stark.This is my first video game written from the ground up for the GBA. It is also one of my few first programs written in C. My contact info is below if you have any ideas, suggestions, hate mail, or bugs.Gorillas Advanced puts two badly drawn Gorillas and a pixel sized banana against each other. On each side of the screen is a gorilla. Inbetween them are blue scyscrapers. You must enter the angle and velocity of the banana, while taking into consideration the wind factor, to hit the opposing gorilla.There is a single and two player option in this game, and the score is kept on wins. In the single player mode, you play against the CPU. In two player mode, you swap the GBA between two players.

The “Zelda Demo” has been done by Alex Pagliaro aka Dark Cloud. Here is a small extraction from the readme:

This is a small demo of sprite animation, backgrounds, and sprite+background collision using graphics from the Legend of Zelda. It works pretty well except for one small bug which I can’t seem to figure out. But you probably won’t encounter it. I might make the source code public if I clean it up a bit first.
