Bigboy

A work-in-progress Gameboy emulator. See the write-up on my blog!

Screenshots

Features

Plays Tetris, Pokemon Red/Blue/Gold/Silver, TMNT II, Link's Awakening
Faithful green screen tint
(Hopefully) multiplatform
Supports MBC1/MBC3/MBC5
Supports real-time clock
Passes Blargg's CPU tests

Still working on it

Dr. Mario gets to the title screen and menu, before disabling the display and rendering the game unplayable
No audio support (that's what all the "No memory device registered for ..." are)
No support for other MBC chips
No graphical interface

Usage

$ bigboy [gameboy-rom-path]

Building

Unfortunately, I've only tested this on macOS so far. In theory, it should work fine on Windows and Linux too, but theory is theory. If you'd like to have a crack it should be pretty easy:

$ git clone https://github.com/Dandigit/bigboy
$ cmake .. .
$ make bigboy-bin
$ ./bigboy-bin ./tests/cpu-instrs.gb
