Tepples' "static" GBA demo proves that the GBA display is interlaced the same way as the GBC display, with alternate lines being drawn darker and lighter in each frame.
Can I have more details about this ?
When running the test on my GBA I see horizontal lines that aren't visible in Visual Boy Advance. The programm is flickering blue and yellow, and on the GBA it appers like one pixel out of two is blue and the other yellow. The results are the same on my DS, and that for both screens. There is no GBC version but I assume the results would be the same as the text sates. The horizontal lines are visible in some games when there is flickering objects (the Airship's shdadows in Final Fantasy games is a good thing to see that)
Does that means even lines on the GBC/GBA/DS are refresehed one frame and odd lines another ? I bet many scrolling backgrounds would look terrible if that were the case (might be wrong).
(PS : Tepples to show a 6 pixel wide font on the GBA why not use a bitmap mode instead of wasting mode-7 scaling for that ?)
Would be great if someone would release a LCD filter emulating this behavior, GBC/GBA/DS equivalent of NTSC filter.
