YieArGBA V0.1.6

This is a Yie Ar Kung-Fu - Arcade emulator for the GBA.

How to use

Now put yiear.zip and/or yiear2.zip into a folder where you have arcade roms.

When the emulator starts, you can press L+R to open up the menu (the emulator tries to load Yie Ar Kung Fu automagically on startup). Now you can use the cross to navigate the menus, A to select an option, B to go back a step.
