GameYob, NEW Open Source GB/GBC Emulator

[VatoLoco]

Drenn has been building a NEW Gameboy and Gameboy Color emulator for the DS, and has just released the first public version for the community to try out. Exciting news for coders is that the developer has made his project open source, unlike the closed source Lameboy. Please join the on-going discussion linked below for the full story about this WIP homebrew.

• Runs most original gb games fullspeed, and a number of double-speed gbc games as well (Wario Land 3 is quite playable, and the oracle games... almost). It's not as fast as lameboy, yet.
• Supports sound, saving, real-time clock (same format as lameboy), and roms of any size.
• Sound emulation is hit-and-miss... some games, like pokemon RBY (even pikachu's cry!) and GSC, sound excellent, while others have various issues..
  
  A few notes:
• Press R to open the menu.
• Press X to save your data to the filesystem.
• When you choose the "Load ROM" option, your game is saved automatically.
• It looks for roms in the "lameboy" directory by default, to make your life easier.
• Games which don't run at full speed are more prone to graphical glitches. You can turn on "Wait for Vblank" to avoid this, but your FPS will drop to about 30. It's better to just leave it off.
• Don't deactivate the "hblank" option. You've been warned.
