Gameboy emulator

 

The Latest Virtual GameBoy Version is 3.4!

This release adds GameLink emulation to VGB-Windows and VGB-Symbian, fixes several battery-backed SRAM bugs, improves scanline simulation, and adds the soft video effect to VGB-Windows and VGB-MSDOS. Both of these now run in 640x480 screen resolution. VGB-Symbian has also got a new "fill & soften" zoom mode, screen orientation, and backlight controls. Several possible sources of instabilities have been fixed.

 

New in This Version

 

* Added GameLink emulation to VGB-Windows and VGB-Symbian.

* Fixed a possible crash on cartridges with

* No longer clearing battery-backed RAM on reset.

* #ifdef SOUND finally retired from the code. The sound code is always compiled in anyway.

* Added new, much better, scanline simulation and video softening effects to VGB-Windows.

* VGB-Windows full-screen mode now runs in 640x480 resolution.

* Added -zoom/-nozoom option to VGB-MSDOS that will zoom GameBoy display to fill the whole screen, using image softening algorithm.

* Added -sync/-nosync option to VGB-MSDOS to sync screen updates to the timer (use -vsync for VBlanks).

* Added [CONTROL]+[F8] key combination to VGB-MSDOS to toggle display zoom on/off.

* VGB-MSDOS now runs in 640x480x15bpp VESA screen mode when -zoom or -tv options used, otherwise it runs in 320x200x15bpp screen mode.

* Added new "Fill & Soften" zoom mode to VGB-Symbian. It is rather slow though.

* Added screen orientation and backlight control to VGB-Symbian.

* Fixed possible source of instabilities in the S60 open file dialog in VGB-Symbian.

* Fixed exit via Symbian-specific menu.

* Fixed premature termination of the emulation thread when exiting VGB-Symbian, soundtrack recording and config saving work again.

* Documentation updated to reflect all the latest changes.

It's the debugging features, just like no$gba. If you're wanting to dev, and possibly sell your unliscenced software, emulators like this are ALOT cheaper than a dev unit.
