Debugging GameBoy Advance (GBA) programs/games in Emacs
You may already have found some resources related to VSCode around, like this repository and this article. The launch.json files could be adapter to work with dap-launch (more on that later), but would require some manual work because of several smaller issues (one of them being that Emacs does not support VSCode tasks.json files at the moment). Both of them also seem to require you to copy-paste the launch.json files, and edit them with corrected paths each time (see how you can avoid that in Emacs at the end!).

Debugging GameBoy Advance (GBA) programs/games in Emacs
No matter which editor you debug in, the workflow is about the same. You will need DevkitPro gba-dev and an emulator like mGBA. If you want to familiarize yourself with some C code for GBA, as well as Makefiles with CFlags and other build options, there is an example repo you can check out :)
What are some alternatives?
