I was looking in the download section for official 64bits releases and I don't see them anymore.

The same with the "gits" from emucr:

Thanks a lot  Smile
They were never listed on the download page because there's no advantage to them.

That said, they still exist:

How so?
Is the GBA that easy of a system to emulate resource wise?
What if 32 bit systems/OSes become obsolete?
Dolphin moved to only 64 bit a while ago (granted there are lots of advantages in that case).
Yes, the GBA emulation itself takes less memory than the size of a ROM. That said if windows ever stops supporting 32-bit binaries I’ll start linking the 64-bit builds.
