    Hello! I was wondering if two people with GpSPhone could play together on the same game through Bluetooth or WiFi. For example: Playing Sonic Battle in a match or playing The Legend of Zelda Four Swords together, etc.

    With the small screen size, it would be impossible for everyone to see the screen. Not possible.

    Not even that. The GBA relies on a CONSTANT connection, if it falters for half a second the games shut down. Now, over any type of wireless network, you'll never have constant connection, it wavers. So unless Zoddt can modify the roms to accept this or change his emulator, it will never happen.

    I don't think it's possible to play a game with multiplayer but transferring things like Pokemon or Yu-Gi-Oh cards could be possible.

    Actually it is possible, there's a GBA emulator called Virtual Boy Advance and it has a cyber link called VBA, I'm not sure how it connects but probably with wifi networks, the creators of Gpsphone are probably gonna try to mimic it or maybe even start a friend code system where you have friend codes and you can link them with others via Internet, but only time will tell if it will happen

    I battled my brother across WLAN from VBALink. With VBAlink, technically you can also battle anyone across the internet + multiplayer.
    Certain third party modified versions of VBA can also trade with other emulators like Dolphin.
    No functionality is present in GPSPhone, I'm afraid. It is one of the most backward emulators ever to exist.

    Has anyone considered using a Bluetooth connection, at least for short-distance connections?
