Links My Game Boy Emulator
E-mail me with your comments or suggestions
GameBoyEmu is actually my final year project. As you'd expect its a game boy emulator written in Java that is designed to work on the Internet. It currently emulates the standard game boy and the game boy color and compatability is pretty high.

I got 83% for it which was the second highest mark in the year! and now you can read my write up to see if you think it was worth it!

Feel free to use the source code in any way you see fit and don't hesitate to e-mail me if you find any bugs or improve on the program in any way. However if you do use any large portions of the code in your own projects I would appreciate it if you would acknowledge me in some way and provide a link to my site.

A NOTE ABOUT USING THIS APPLET ON YOUR WEB PAGE. due to the high demand I have had for the applet I have decided to make it available for download using the link to the left. I only ask that if you succesfully use the applet, you credit me with the programming and provide a link to my site.

A word of warning, the applet wasnt really designed to be easily ported to other web sites. I have specifically chosen which ROMs to place on this site cause they are the popular ones that work! The emulators compatability is about 65-70% so if you wish to use the applet on your own page you will need to test and upload your own zipped ROMs and alter a text file to point to them

Full istructions are included in a readme file in the .zip file oh and I'm afraid that I cannot e-mail you the roms I have used
