reallynotnick(2/15/2004 - version 1.7.4)
This is now much better then boycott the sound is very good. Boycott is just lagging behind
Chief Moose(12/20/2003 - version 1.7.1)
even if Boycott Advance didn't exist, this is a pretty bad port of a decent emulator. But of course Boycott Advance does exist, so I'd recommend checking that out.
Ed the Monkey(4/20/2003 - version 1.5.1)
True, VisualBoyAdvance is slower than Boycott Advance. However, VBA has much better compatibility than Boycott Advance, and many games that work poorly or not at all on Boycott work well (albeit slowly) on VBA.

Personally, I think the Boycott Advance is much better than this. Most games run slowly with this emulator, and I have teh r0>

Emulators » Nintendo Gameboy Advance » Mac OS X » VBA-M VBA-M GBA Emulator for Mac OS X Overview. VBA-M is a fork from the now inactive VisualBoy Advance project, with goals to improve the capatibility and features of the emulator.

VisualBoyAdvance (commonly abbreviated as VBA) is a free emulator of the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advancehandheld game consoles[2] as well as of Super Game Boy and Super Game Boy 2.

Besides the DirectX version for the Windows platform, there is also one that is based on the free platform independentgraphics librarySDL. This is available for a variety of operating systems including Linux,[3]BSD, Mac OS X,[4] and BeOS. VisualBoyAdvance has also been ported to AmigaOS 4, AROS, GameCube, Wii, webOS, and Zune HD.[5]

History[edit]

The VisualBoyAdvance project was started by a developer under the online alias 'Forgotten'.[6][better source needed] When this person left the development of the emulator, the project was handed over to a team named 'VBA Team', led by Forgotten's brother. Development on the original VisualBoyAdvance stopped in 2004 with version 1.8.0 beta 3, and a number of forked versions were made by various developers in the years since then, such as VisualBoyAdvance-M.

VisualBoyAdvance-M[edit]

VisualBoyAdvance-M, or simply VBA-M, is an improved fork from the inactive VisualBoyAdvance project, adding several features as well as maintaining an up-to-date codebase. After VisualBoyAdvance became inactive in 2004, several forks began to appear such as VBALink, which allowed users to emulate the linking of two Game Boy devices. Eventually, VBA-M was created, which merged several of the forks into one codebase. Thus, the M in VBA-M stands for Merge.[7]There is also a RetroArch/Libretro port of VBA-M's GBA emulation core (without the GB, GBC and SGB cores)[8] as well as a modified version called VBA-Next.[9]

In conjunction with the DolphinGameCube emulator, VBA-M supports linking GameCube and Game Boy Advance titles.[10][11]

Critical security flaw[edit]

The VBA emulator is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution through a feature that allows importation of cheat codes from files, which isn't protected against buffer overrun. By importing a malicious XPC file (usually containing a list of GameShark cheat codes), VBA and VBA-rr can execute arbitrary code contained within the file.

Proof-of-concept XPC files have been written for VBA 1.8.0 and VBA-rr,[12] but VBA-M is currently not known to be vulnerable.
