I actually linked to the old version, specifically because it excludes all the DS specifications and stuff. |

From what I read, it sounds like it would be better to use C because if you used C++, you would have to use a buttload of tricks in order to make it as fast as C. Plus what you were saying about you don't need to use ASM as much for C. So basically, I should look at the C side of GBA developement? |

"ARM32" is silly. In general, it'd mean "a 32-bit ARM".
The GBA uses an ARM7 processor, which has two instruction sets: 16-bit THUMB and 32-bit ARM. If you're going for C, which you'll want, this matters not. The NDS uses an ARM7 and ARM9 in parallel, just in case you're wondering. |

Now you're just confusing me. Whats the difference between ARM32 and ARM7 other than 25? |

ARM32? It's ARM7. |

You're going to need to have a really good knowledge of C and/or ARM32 assembly, also. You might want to check out devrs.com if they're around still, they've always been pretty resourceful |

Not a big fan of HAM myself, but if you try the documents at gbadev.org or check out some of the stickies in their forum they should be able to point you in the right direction. |

I recently downloaded HAM and would like to learn how to use it. Every time I pick up a "noobie FAQ" it gives me a list of guides that sound like they would be worth reading and a bunch of 404's where the guides used to be. Does anyone have any good ones? |
