GBA.js is a Game Boy Advance emulator written from scratch in JavaScript using HTML5 technologies like Canvas and Web Audio, with no plugins required. It runs entirely in cutting-edge web browsers and supports savegame transfer, screenshots, pausing, and realtime clock gamepaks.
Use cases
- play game boy advance games in the browser
- emulate gba roms without installing software
- run gba games on a chromebook
- embed a game boy advance emulator in a web page
- take screenshots of gba gameplay
- upload and download gba savegames in the browser
When to choose
- you want to play GBA games purely in a web browser with no plugins or installs
- you need a JavaScript GBA emulator core to embed or build upon
- you want savegame upload/download and screenshot features in-browser
When to avoid
- you need high accuracy or full game compatibility, especially for homebrew titles
- you need savestates, gamepad support, link cable multiplayer, or cheat codes
- you need an actively developed emulator - the project has not seen releases since 2017
- you target older browsers like IE9 or Safari 5.x
