Description

Multigba S is a GBA emulator that lets you play classic GBA games on your Android mobile devices. Besides offline mode, you can also play with your friends via LAN network or Online (requires logging in using Facebook or Google account, no third-party apps needed). Note that unlike other emulators, this app truly supports online multiplayer without any manual setup or opening network ports.

As of 22 Jan 2019, most of games' link cable multiplayer modes should run in Multigba S. However, there is no guarantee that multiplayer will work 100% in every game. Please report bugs if you encounter multiplayer related issues.

FEATURES:
- Offline Single-player mode.
- Link cable emulation via LAN & Wifi Direct & Online Multiplayer mode. It is consistent, has no de-syncing problems like other emulators that use scheduled syncing Network play method. And it supports long distance (cross-countries) connections. However, the gameplay quality will depend on your network connection's speed.
- Invite others to play Online using Google or Facebook account.
- Text chat when playing Multiplayer.
- Supports saving game' states, even when playing multiplayer.
- Supports both hardware controllers and virtual/on-screen/touch based controller.
- Editable virtual buttons' layout.
- Various shader effects.
- This emulator core is derived from mGBA. The most accurate GBA core to date.

NOTES:
- Location permission is required for Wifi Direct multiplayer mode. Without it, 2nd player cannot find the 1st player who created the network game session.
- The app doesn't come with any games. You have to copy or download GBA roms to your device's sdcard. Their locations will be detected automatically by the app itself. Both .zip, and .gba files are accepted.
- Hosting multiplayer games requires strong devices. Minimum quad-core 1.5Ghz CPU.
- When playing multiplayer, second player is not required to have the game roms in his/her devices, it is only required for the first player (i.e. the host).
- To reduce lag during multiplayer, place your devices as close as possible to each other and to the Router/Access Point.
- Alternatively, using Wifi Direct option if your device supports it.
- Playing over Internet consumes quite a lot of bandwidth which is roughly 60-100 KB per second.
- Google logged in users will only able to play online with other Google users, and similarly, FB users can only play with FB users.
- The one hosting the game through Internet is required to have the minimum upload speed around 60 KB/s (512 Kbps).
- If you encounter severe lags, sometimes a simple router or both players' device's wifi restart might help.
- There are some routers that don't support direct Internet multiplayer hosting due to their Firewall settings. If it is the case, the app will attempt to use relay server to relay data between 2 players, though the bandwidth will be limited if relay server is used by too many people. If relay server still fails, you will probably see "Remote connection timeout or disconnected" message popped up on guest player side. You can try to switch roles, i.e. guest becomes host and vice versa. If we are lucky, the new host's router will allow the connection between two players.
- This application is in no way endorsed by or affiliated with the original GBA device creator company.

THE APP IS CURRENTLY STILL IN EARLY PREVIEW STATE, THUS WE WOULD BE GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD HELP US REPORTING BUGS TO lehoangq@gmail.com. THANK YOU.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

2 ★The emulator supposed to be multiplayer ready right? but i'm getting stuttering frames and sounds from both client and host, but the client has the wrose stuttering even on lan making it unplayable on multiplayer. :c
3 ★The online feature is remarkable, I've been waiting that feature for a long time. I am waiting for future update of this app because as a connecting player, the lag is the main problem, although it is manageable because we are just playing Pokemon. It brings back the excitement of my childhood days.
3 ★This app is so close to being perfect! But, for me (when i'm the client), it suffers from horrid lag, delay, and fps drops, just like Super Mario Maker 2! Also, is it possible to do 4 player for games that support it (this doesn't impact my rating, I'm just curious)
5 ★Very helpful i wanted to play with my friendhe has slow network from now no worry because i have this app
5 ★This app works better than it should. My brothers can have seperate save files on pokemon Emerald because the save data is held on the phone playing the game. Plus, TRADING!!!
5 ★I loved it, the fact that i can play my childhood with others is great, the only flaw i saw was lag, which under certain circumstances weren't a problem, the only issue i have is the fact it's only two player, but most games are two player so, no fault there.
3 ★This works to a degree, but streaming a game to the other player is not optimal for games to run smoothly. Is it possible to do this with both players connected but running the game separately on their own devices, rather than one player streaming to another?
4 ★Great in everyway, except ONE. It doesnt play in the background, so god forbid you get a call or answer a text the whole program shuts down. Aside from that the multiplayer is a great feature.
4 ★I when I first got it I was like oh wow this is going to be fun but yeah sort of but not really I mean everything has lag to it I hope they made an update for this very soon cuz I want to enjoy my GBA games with friends
5 ★This is a great emulator multiplayer no lag can you make a game boy color multiplayer supported pls 😀
4 ★A near perfect experience! Only problem is that the a+b button doesn't fully register both a and b at the exact same time so playing games that require two precise Button presses (I.e tekken advance) won't be able to be used the way it was intended. If this was rectified this would be a 10/5 app!
4 ★Excellent It needs some more work put into it but it's great. I really wanted to play some gba stuff with a friend and it worked perfectly, sure it has lag but its good, i hope somehow you guys can fix that. A really good app i hope to see new updates that make the app better.
