gnuboy for XBOX v2

posted in Emulator Release by narvick on Jul 10th, 2002

gnuboy, an open source Game Boy emulator, has been successfully ported to XBOX! Let's hope it doesn't run into any legal trouble like MAME-X did :( Here's what's new in this release:
  • Sound works perfectly now :)
  • Added support for ZIP files
  • Included unpatched XBE (gnuboy.bak)
  • Added "loading" screens
  • Now using a smaller font for the game listing so the long names can fit on screen
  • Made game names all lower case
  • Lots of other little things
It is also noted that "compatibility [is] as good as gnuboy (which is pretty much everything) and all games run at 60fps with full sound." The author also says:
    I didn't mention it last time, but all sorts of thanks and appreciation must go out to the developers of Gnuboy. It's quite an excellent emulator.
