Gameboy Advance development

Does anyone have any pictures or info on what the "official" (read "nintendo-sanctioned") way to develop for the Gameboy Advance?

I know many homebrew developers just use a GBA flash cart and various homebrew solutions for it but what is used for the games that end up on the shelves?

 

I don't know about the Nintendo one but here is the SN Systems one, missing from the picture is the SCSI card.

 

Now if I can just get ahold of one of those for the DS...

 

there are Intelligent System tools/emulator/debugger

take a look here

Yeah, and regular people can't just buy that one either.

 

Is'nt the SN system kit officially licensed by Nintendo?

 

SN Systems tools require that you have proper license to develop for said system. As long as you can provide proper documentation, they will sell you anything. This is because, with all of the experience I have with SN Systems products, all of them required "official" libraries/tools/binaries that Nintendo distributed.

 

ahh i see, thanks for clearing that up..
