It's an interesting fact, that the GBA is actually a 32 bit device, it's just not equipped with 3D processing capabilities.
According to Wikipedia it's what Nintendo had envisioned for the successor to the Gameboy, but could'nt pull it off at the time, (for a myriad of reasons) so they went with the GBC instead.

It can however handle 16 bit and lower system emulation, wich would explain how it can handle TurboGrafx-16 emulation and the SNES to GBA game conversions (via flashcard (at least on Supercard-SD)), like how we saw alot of GBA versions of SNES games, such as Final Fantasy IV, V, VI, Doom 1 and 2, the Legend of Zelda: a Link to the Past, Rock and Roll Racing, Blackthorne, etc, etc...

TurboGrafx 16 emulation on the GBA is pitiful which emulator were you using?

PCEAdvance, on Supercard-SD yo. It's working nice for me.

The following TurboGrafx-16 games run smoothly or acceptably:

- Wonder Momo
- Volfied
- Space Invaders
- Paranoia
- Galaga '88 (a great year)
- Bomberman User's Battle
- Bomberman '94 (actually a bad year, as Kurt Cobain AND Brandon Lee were taken from us)

These are just a half of the handful of TurboGrafx-16 games i have.

The point i was trying to make isn't that the emulation is great, just that it's amazing that this is even possible on the GBA, an 11 year old handheld, is pretty outstanding. GB, GBC, NES, Master System, TurboGrafx-16 and GBA emulation, via flashcard.
Not many handhelds out there of that age that can do that.

Is there a video of some gameplay closeup? I'm worried about the screen's high resolution. I tried out some GBA games on the PSP's higher resolution, but looked worse than on original SP screen. The colors seemed less vivid and picture seemed less sharp. It seemed more detailed and crisp on the original SP screen. Why does this have such high resolution, when just for playing GBA games?

Well I think I might just get me one of these... can it play CPS1 / CPS2 like Dingoo ?

No, its a GBA Hardware.

In gba is not possible emulate CPS1 or CPS2, only 8 bits systems like, NES, Master System or GBC.

Shame, I have a "Gamebox Advance" I got from DX last year, that does CPS1 games

Here is my previous thread: http://boards.dingoonity.org/other-game-systems/gamebox-advance-sp/

I currently have it stripped and all wires soldered onto the PCB, I have mini buttons and mini arcade stick, I just need to put it in a micro cabinet...

 The long time holiday did delay the releasing day of Revo K101. Today I got the picture for printing logo- Revo K101 on the device. Isn't it beautiful?
