A port of GameYob to the 3DS - a Gameboy / Gameboy Color emulator.
There is a compatibility list here.
Usage
By default, it looks for roms in the /gb directory of your SD card (NOT gateway's microSD card). As always you can change this directory in gameyob.ini by editing these lines:
Code:
[general]
rompath=/path/to/legit/roms/
Savegames are copied to the SD card when you exit to the file chooser, exit via the home menu, or exit via the power button. If you run out of power, or it crashes, you'll probably lose your progress.
Touch the screen or press R to open the menu once in-game. Use L or R to navigate to different submenus.

Current Status
Things looked grim for a while when I seemed to get burnt out, and no progress was made. Luckily, SteveIce and others stepped in and made bugfixes, implemented scaling, and all that good stuff. Now it runs almost as well as GameYob DS. Sound quality is still not quite on par, but it's had great improvements.
