Coding > GBA reading USB?

#68918 - spinal_cord - Fri Jan 27, 2006 10:20 am

I was wondering, would it br possible/easy to connect a USB memory device to the GBA via the serial port, then be able to read/write it?
Perhaps for some sort of pda application, so txt files etc. could be transfered between the two?
I can't be the only person to have thought of this?

You'd have to find some sort of USB host controller that can be configured to speak one of the serial port protocols supported by the GBA. I'd suggest getting a GBAMP and using its CF card instead.
