Pokémon! GBA (ARM7) is even being used in some undergrad level OS classes. Although you may get more mileage out of RP3 development.

Red and blue are gbc (z80-like, not ARM).

[pcwalton → cosarara]

Well, Z80 shares a common ancestor with x86 and resembles it quite a bit [1]. The assembly syntax is just different because Zilog was afraid of lawsuits…

GB was Sharp LR35902. Similar but not quite an z80 or x80.
