There were [https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/881/ tools] made to extract the internal high -quality music (as midi files plus a sound font, to be played on foobar2000), however , interest remains limited in implementing its playback in real -time on emulators. It's worth noting it exists as a very experimental feature on [[mGBA]] (nightly versions) under Enhancements as "XQ GBA Audio", but very buggy and still limited to games using the standard sound engine, the so-called "Sappy" engine, which is still a big part of the GBA's software library.

Originally, when saves were implemented, nobody settled on a format, so the Visual Boy Advance devs made its their own. Because other emulators often went with raw data, having to exchange different saves caused problems. The original Visual Boy Advance tries to figure out which format a given save is but often fails at it. By explicitly telling the emulator to read it as a specific type using a file called <code>vba-over.ini</code>, VBA complies. VBA-M includes this config file by default, but older revisions like VBA 1.7.2 and VBALink do not.

Purple end in GBA means player 1, while a grey end in GBA means P2, P3, or P4. Daisy -chaining up to three cables will set up the additional P3 and P4 by connecting the purple end to a purple mid sectionmidsection.<ref>https://www.nintendo.com/consumer/downloads/agblink.pdf</ref>
