PlayStation 3 gets homebrew Game Boy emulator, but it's in BD-J

Homebrew - Gameboy Emulator For the PS3 - Image 1 Too bad this didn't arrive before FW 2.50. From PS3 homebrew developer Mario comes a new Game Boy Emulator for the Sony console.

Hopefully someone will figure out how to get around the BD-J homebrew block so the PS3 community can enjoy this properly.

Note that this emu may be a bit slow, and sounds may not work that well either. Huge thanks to Atr1 for providing an English translation of the readme. Here are the instructions for installing the emulator (assuming you haven't updated to 2.50):
  • Download the emulator (see link below)
  • Place the AVCHD on an USB drive (use FAT32)
  • Place the drive in the USB port of the PS3
  • Select the drive and start the AVCHD folder from VIDEO
  • Choose a game.
The triangle button is used to select through 0-9. The download already includes several roms to get you started.

Thanks to Atri for the tip!

I almost forgot.



"it might just be the game, his/her TV, the video camera etc"



Gee, do you REALLY think it's one of those? Hum...I don't know. I think it might be his eyeballs that did it. Or maybe the space aliens hovering over his house. Or maybe your stupidity is just so blindingly BRIGHT that everything in the world at that exact moment, turned colorless!!!



Either way, WTF was your point?

Not sure why you're surprised it's in black and white.



The Game Boy was monochrome.

Really? You're not sure? Care to think about that again for a few more minutes?



Every GB Emu I've seen has a COLOR GUI. The guy could have added SOME color.

A Gameboy is not the same as a Gameboy Color, and no the difference isnt just color, but graphics ccapabilities, sound, and many more things as well so its not like just adding color GUI when Gameboy games didnt have color. This is so dumb, I mean anybody care to emulate a GBA game on a GBC and see if its possible??? You cant!!!

Oh brother! I can't believe you guys! Do you even know what a GUI is?



See the white square? That's the GB screen. See everything AROUND the white square? That has NOTHING to do with the GB and is apart of the GUI for the GB emulator. EVERY SINGLE GB emulator I have seen has had COLOR for the GUI. All I did was mention B+W only? This is the first GB emulator I have ever seen WITHOUT COLOR in the application.



I didn't realize the level of ignorance of the people that would be reading my comment. Talk about clueless!
