Bei dem GameYob handelt es sich um einen Emulator ähnlich wie lameboy. Dabei können Gameboy (Color) Roms bequem über die microSD-Karte gestartet werden. Bisher ist der Emulator noch nicht so leistungsstark wie lameboy, jedoch wird dieser Emulator immer weiter entwickelt.
Ein weiterer großer Vorteil ist, dass GameYob Open Source ist und somit mehrere Leute diesen Emulator immer weiter verbessern oder mit Features erweitert können.
A few notes:
- Press R to open the menu.
- Press X to save your data to the filesystem.
- When you choose the "Load ROM" option, your game is saved automatically.
- It looks for roms in the "lameboy" directory by default, to make your life easier.
- Games which don't run at full speed are more prone to graphical
glitches. You can turn on "Wait for Vblank" to avoid this, but your FPS
will drop to about 30. It's better to just leave it off.
- Don't deactivate the "hblank" option. You've been warned.
