Section: Unix

 

Added: Fri, Feb 2nd 2001 01:19 UTC (7 years, 5 months ago) Updated: Wed, Mar 15th 2006 11:49 UTC (2 years, 3 months ago)


About:
gnuboy emulates the Color GameBoy handheld console in portable C, with interfaces for X11, Linux fbcon and svgalib, SDL, DOS, and Windows, with other ports planned in the future. Compatibility with ROMs tested is around 99 percent, and all major hardware features except SGB extensions are supported. With the optional optimized i386 assembly code, gnuboy can run at the full 60 FPS even on Pentium/75s and below. No special libraries are required to compile, and gnuboy is known to build on many *nix variants.

[»] Link capabilities
by Alex Lee - Aug 22nd 2001 19:58:58

This is an overall very well-done piece of open source work. The support for games is amazing. And gameplay is quite uninterrupted by bugs that feature in many other emulators.
Features that I would like to see include the link capability, which is currently entirely missing, and force coloring of regular gameboy cartridges.

[»] Gameboy Color
by Idcmp - Mar 24th 2001 10:56:51

If you're looking for a Gameboy Color emulator for Linux, then this is exactly what you're looking for (there are alot of half-done, partially broken GBC emu's out there for Linux; this is not one of them).
