The gnuboy project is a GameBoy emulator that is portable, multi-platform, and GPL'd. It allows users to play GameBoy games on various operating systems.
The gnuboy emulator is able to emulate the beloved Color GameBoy console using portable C. It comes equipped with interfaces for X11, Linux fbcon and svgalib, SDL, DOS, and Windows, with more ports to be expected in the future. This ensures that you can run the emulator on any platform of your choice.
As far as compatibility is concerned, gnuboy is known to have a success rate of around 99 percent when it comes to testing with ROMs. All major hardware features except SGB extensions are supported, which means you can enjoy a smooth gameplay experience. And with the optional optimized i386 assembly code, gnuboy can even run at the full 60 frames per second on older computers like Pentium/75s and below.
Perhaps the best part about this emulator is that no special libraries are required to compile it. Plus, gnuboy is known to build on many *nix variants. So if you're looking for a reliable and efficient emulator software for GameBoy games, gnuboy definitely deserves your attention.
