Visual Boy Advance was released quite a while now. I remember when I used this emulator on my old Windows XP computer, and I still have this GBA Emulator until now with my new Windows 10 PC. As a Pokemon fan, I can’t forget how impressive Visual Boy Advance is.
Good thing the developers of VBA are still working on updating this software. There are dozens of GBA emulators available on different platforms, but if you prefer to play Pokemon GBA games on your Windows computer, I would suggest installing Visual Boy Advance.

Does VBA Works with ROM Hacks?
VBA emulator works perfectly with many ROM hacks, and to make any Pokemon ROM Hacks works on your Windows computer, you may need to use Lunar IPS patcher or by following this guide on How To Patch IPS and UPS Files to Play a ROM Hack.
Is It Free?
Creating Windows applications is not merely an easy task. But luckily, since when it was available, Visual Boy Advance is free to download for all. You don’t need to buy software to play Pokemon GBA games because VBA has it all you need to enjoy the game; want to explore and enjoy the extra feature of your Pokemon game? Use the cheating feature of VBA.
In my opinion, Visual Boy Advance is the best software for playing Pokemon GBA games on Windows. Almost all the settings and features you need to enjoy your Pokemon gaming are already in the software.
A while ago, I created a video that use a VBA emulator. If you’re interested in watching the video, you can find it here, Pokemon FireRed Legendary Pokemon Cheat With Gameshark Codes and to my surprise, the video is quite popular on Youtube.

does anyone know how to make a gameshark file for pokemon firered to use with vba windows? I’m on windows 10. im new to this, have mainly used vgbanext android, never could do the windows version. I have very little patience to take too long to do this. if any of yall have a solution, id appreciate it very much.
can it be used on windows 10 touch tab
Agree with other posters. VisualBoyAdvance-SDL.exe file via SourceForge.net doesn’t work – it opens for 0.5 seconds in a Command Line-like environment, and then closes.
Tried to run as administrator but failed too. Using Windows 10 Home if that helps anyone.
Thanks for the heads up, just want you to know that I’ve made an update to the link. Feel free to try and let me know how it go to you guys.
The application doesn’t open
it doesnt open
You mean the VisualyBoyAdvance file?
yes the application just closes itself 0.5 sec after it opened
That’s strange, did you use any cheats? If yes, then turn them off.
also if it only stays open for 0.5 seconds how do u disable the cheats
