Peanut-GB for NumWorks

Build

This app is a Game Boy emulator that runs on the NumWorks calculator. It is based off of the Peanut-GB emulator.

Install the app

To install this app, you'll need to:

  1. Download the latest peanutgb.nwa file from the Releases page
  2. Make a .edata archive with all your ROMs from your personnal dump collection edata
  3. Head to my.numworks.com/apps to send the nwa file on your calculator along the edata file.

How to use the app

The controls are pretty obvious because the GameBoy's gamepad looks a lot like the NumWorks' keyboard:
