Most-used GBA emulators
No$GBA (also a DS emulator, last update 3.05 from 2021)
Visual Boy Advance / VBA (the original is discontinued, but has different variants like VBA-M with the last update 2.1.4 from 2021)
mGBA (last update from this month, 0.10.0)
For the sake of completion:
BatGBA (super old and not recommendable, last update from 2002, also can't say anything about the three below this one)
Boycott Advance
RascalBoy Advance
DreamGBA
And also multi-system emulators like
higan
BizHawk (apparently pretty good)
RetroArch
There was also an emulator that needs "Poppy Bright" to be enabled to display accurate colours? I think this was the case for the original VBA. Since I'm not a GBA ripper, I can only recommend trying out various emulators and look out for internal background & tile viewers. Maybe start with BizHawk, which was recommended in another thread?
