in the game like GBA?

consumes less resources, it's a bit closer to the hardware. And I like the syntax.

Yes but... Is it the same if i make a game in C++? or became more slow? Or i can't comunicate with the machine? Are there others substantial reasons?

Nah, if you like it, then use it.

But it might be a bit hard to write good Object Oriented code when you have to communicate this much with the hardware.

By what method i can communicate with the hardware?

Read through the Pern Project tutorials.

To learn the basics of coding for the GBA, look through http://216.167.73.47/~dovoto/English/tutorial.html
