Quote: GBA too!!!
YES! Gba support is more of a must, there already exists a free gcc compiler for GBA. I tried coding for the GBA, but i quickly got annoyed because doing some basic stuff like clearing the screen, displaying and loading images were a pain in the a$$. All in all i ended up quitting GBA coding, so we SHOULD make a GBA port. |

Don't you need some sort of hardware for GBA coding though? Flash cards or somethng? I would still prefer the DC. Nothing would bring me greater joy than playing a creation of mine on a big-screen TV Of course, I understand the user base for GBA is probably bigger than DC. How about PS2 then? -- |

No, you can program for the GBA using just one lead, thanks to the hardware GBA feature intended to allow link up games with only one cartridge. I would get into it if I could afford a GBA and trusted my money to the cable suppliers. Also, we'll already have an instant PS2 port once an SDL driver for Allegro is written. I hope to write one for Allegro 5 if no-one else will. [My site] [Tetrominoes] |

You don't even need a lead to program games for the GBA, just compile them into the GBA ROM format, and use an emulator (I use Boycott Advance) to run them... |

Plus it's just got more oomph; anything I can code for GBA I can code for my PC. The DC on the other hand can do some very nice graphics; that alone makes me salivate.
