Not really ideal for the obvious reason GBA has two buttons less than the SNES.
;SNES Advance:Formerly known as PocketSNES. Different versions have different game-specific fixes breaking stuff elsewhere. This emulator is very inaccurate and has lots of issues, it hasn't been updated for a long time, so it's not recommended to use.

;[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IHBIlnx52Y YJ Emulator]:An emulator commonly used on pirated multicarts like PocketNES. Its name is derived from the header. Games will suffer from low speed and poor sound emulation while emulated. There's currently no way found to inject the game into the emulator.
