I was thinkin about making a simple GBA-emulator? does anyone know where I can find a binary instructionset for the processor and other stuff? Is it difficult to make a gba-emulator (I?ve made some ASM-emulators before)...

Check the ARM documentation in the docs section at the main site for info on the instruction set. I think the ARM7TDMI data sheet is what you need, it shows all the instructions in binary format.
Can't help you with much else, as I've never written an emulator before. It does sound fun though, good luck!
