[Scummvm-devel] GBA port in the work

Hello!

It might be possible.

Does the GBA have a separate area for video memory not counted in those 256
kb?
Do you need to put all data you need to access in those 256 kb, or is it
possible to use the ROM as a location of read-only data?

What screen resolution/color depth does the GBA use?

Best Regards,
Ludvig Strigeus
