Hey.
I've done GBA hacking in the past, but have not really studied it objectively. I've only recently gone into checking DKC3-GBA out, and hope to learn more as I go deeper.
Here's a few interesting things:
0xFD0000, ASCII:

EDIT: What the ?!?!
Half of my post got chopped off.. I don't know why. Aw man, it was a long post.
Damn.

Well, I don't feel like typing it all again so here's all that jazz in a nutshell:

Built-in audio debugger?

There's a string "Trev's Test Level" there. We must access it.

Interesting text. I'd look into this further if I actually knew a decent amount about GBA hacking.
