Welcome to the RealBoy Project

This is a series of posts about the design and implementation of the RealBoy Emulator. RealBoy is a simple, yet complete, Nintendo Game Boy/Game Boy Color/Super Game Boy emulator. It includes the standard script files for building and compiling under any UNIX-like Operating System, although it does not depend on the POSIX Interface, so it should be relatively easy to build under a Windows environment.

These posts are not intended as a ‘tutorial’ for writing an emulator; it intends to bring a more fundamental learning experience to the reader. We assume some very basic knowledge, so be sure to visit the Getting Started section before beginning.

As already said, RealBoy is actually a complete, fully-functional Game Boy/Game Boy Color Emulator/Super Game Boy; get the latest version at our download page and try it out for yourself.

Happy hacking!
