This is a very nicely done BBC Micro emulator for the GBA. There are a great selection of games for the BBC, most of which work well with the emulator. Some features are:

"Fat pixel", low resolution modes (as seen in Exile, Repton, Magic Mushrooms, etc.)
Sound: 3 channels plus noise generator
Multiload games (Repton 3, Ravenskull, etc.)
Palette changes (Felix + Weevils, Magic Mushrooms, etc.)
Teletext, but barely enough to see the controls on Acornsoft games.
Timers, as used in most games, especially Volcano and Snapper
