The Game Boy Advance, or for short, is GBA, a handheld gaming console of the old generation, but it is one of the first systems to appear in many people's childhood. The games of that system all have pixel graphics, simple gameplay, familiar control mechanism, but they are enjoyable and thousand of things for players to explore. However, all of its exclusive games cannot be found on other platforms, so the emergence of emulated applications is created. One of the trusted emulators is
