Hi there,
I've been wondering if there was such thing as a GBA Emulator for my LG A380 Flip Phone. I know there probably isn't one, but I could use it. A quick reply would be appreciated.

Your only real hope is to try the Java emulators that Vampent made years ago, and that's assuming the LG A380 supports the Java framework that most flip-phone apps use. PhoneScoop doesn't even know what type of CPU is in that phone. In any case, I can't seem to find the Java versions (not Nokia-specific versions) on Vampent's blog anymore, so I'd check out Archive.org's copy of vampent.com instead. In particular, this page of the GBA emulator: https://web.archive.org/web/20130320203223/http://www.vampent.com/vbag.htm

If nothing else, here's something you can use if you want to try his vNES emulator for phones, something tucked away in a .txt file on my hard drive. At this point I don't really consider this piracy. I had Super Mario Brothers running on my Sony-Ericsson w300i flip phone with only 2 frameskip! XD

A little tip for VNES: If you want to register it, just put as your IMEI 15 times the number 1 (11111...) and as code 30 times the number 9 (99999...)

So I just checked my phone and it has Uno on it (It came with the phone). The java version is CLDC 1.1 and MIDP 2.1.

I'm actually not sure if that will work at all. I've never used the GBA one actually. I've used MEboy and vNES before, and they all produced *.jar files which I was able to just copy into my applications folder via a USB cable.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @K3Nv2 Snow Day is pretty fun. My only bitch would be the camera controls, when you move around, say down, you have to move the right stick left or right to get camera to turn and get your view, other than that I like it so far.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    From what people say pvp isn't even worth it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just been playing offline, and they give you a few bots here n there on your team to help battle. I don't think it's as funny as the other games tho, more battle oriented than humor, which kinda sucks, but I'm still early in it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, doesnt the game have a campaign mode?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, and co-op, but you can also start a pvp session and battle just with friends. You get special skill cards (powers) the more you play. And higher value cards, but you can only enable so many cards at a time.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you can find enough for it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Toilet paper is considered the money, you collect and buy stuff with TP, kinda funny. Graphics are def better than the other games tho, I think they used Unity 5 engine.

    I bet most people at the time still watched it in black and white
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Many of them did before colour television was common.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Likely because black and white TV was in-expensive.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It certainly wasn't inexpensive it cost the same as a new car back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How much did a 1965 color TV cost?

    For example, a 21-inch (diagonal) GE color television in 1965 had an advertised price of $499, which is equal to $4,724 in today's dollars, according to the federal government's inflation calculator.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, take into consideration how economy was back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah that's why they listed inflation rates
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Sorry didnt read that part
