Hello,
I'm needing two things, just to start in GBA development, the two things are:

  • GBA ARM Assembler
  • Hello World In Assembly For GBA

Remember that i have experience in Assembly for 8086 processors, now i want to learn for GBA(ARM)!

Regards,
Nathan Paulino Campos

Hello world 101:
* Load a font
* Load a palette
* Set the video mode and background modes
* Set the background tiles to spell out "Hello World"

Personally, I think "Turn the screen blue" makes a better starting out program. That program consists of:
* Set the video mode and background modes
* Write to color #0 of the palette
