RealBoy is a Free, Fast and Accurate, Game Boy/Game Boy Color/Super Game Boy Emulator for Linux/Unix. Now ported to Vita by xerpi. | |||
It has both technical as well as educational goals. | |||
Technically, it aims for the following: | |||
1) Accuracy. Perhaps the most important technical goal, as seen in the best closed-sourced emulators, such as KiGB and BGB, and some free emulators, such as Gambatte and MESS. | |||
2) Performance. Show that it is possible to implement a very fast emulator without sacrificing accuracy. | |||
3) Feature-rich. Implement advanced features such as a flexible internal debugger. | |||
Besides the technical goals, RealBoy pretends to serve as an education tools; it includes a set of documentation files describing the design and implementation issues found while developing the emulator. This can be found on RealBoy's official website (realboyemulator.wordpress.com). | |||
We hope the documentation can be useful to individuals that would like to learn about how emulators work in general, and the type of problems you face when implementing a fully-functional emulator project. | |||
==Features On PC== | |||
RealBoy is a work in progress; current features include: | |||
* Accuracy: Pass various test ROMS designed to evaluate the accuracy of a Game Boy emulator, including: CPU Instructions, Instructions' Timings and Memory Access Timings. | |||
* Experimental Support for the Super Game Boy | |||
* Support for MBC1, MBC3 and MBC5. | |||
* Support for RTC (Real Time Clock) in MBC3. | |||
* Support for executing the original boot ROMS (files not included for legal reasons). | |||
* Internal Debugger: Basic functionality such as adding breakpoints, printing registers, etc. | |||
* FPS: User control over framerate (default is 60fps). | |||
* Sound: Implemented channels 1, 2 and 4. | |||
* Video: Scaling to 2x, 3x and 4x, with or without fullscreen. | |||
* Video: Antialiasing. | |||
* RealBoy Internals: Design and implementation documentation. | |||
