No, VBA-M is just retarded and not being developed anymore.

Question for Shunomi and other devs: Do any test roms for GBA/NDS exist? I know for GB/GBC/NES, Blargg did some excellent test roms for verifying instruction behaviour and timing, but does the same exist for GBA/NDS?
RE: Programming Discussion Thread - Shonumi - 07-12-2014
@mudlord - I do not know of any specific test ROMs. There are demos from the demoscene, but no one has made anything equivalent to Blargg's nice test suites. I ran into a well-made sound test ROM, but that was it.
Currently I am still in the process of writing my ARM interpreter (for experience) and I'm testing stuff by writing small programs for the Raspberry Pi and little GBA test ROMs for the GBA. If I ever get around to it, I may make test suites for the CPU, but I haven't even begun studying how to output things to the LCD yet, and I need to get a flashcart soon to verify hardware behavior (even if it already is well documented, never hurts to see for yourself).
I'd love to make some good test ROMs, but I move slowly. Some people can get such a GBA emulator up in a month. Me, that could happen next year or something :p

A thousand thanks to you. This is supremely helpful. Let me know if you find something similar for the DS.

Yes. Learn to live with it.

RE: Programming Discussion Thread - mudlord - 07-17-2014
Yes, dev got bored, got tired of pissy end users treating the dev like shit, got tired of dealing with all the fucked up emudrama on 4chan all day and other places, you tell me.
Emulation is fucked. End users are scum.
