Nintendo Game Boy, Color and Advance emulator with multi-platform support This type of application can be used to emulate the hardware of old gaming consoles in order to play older games on today's most popular operating systems, on either desktop machines or portable devices like mobile phones and tablets. Game emulators have been around since legacy gaming platforms have not been on sale because of dwindling user base and new gadgets with much powerful hardware have been launched on the market. This release fixes problems that the other version had that only allowed it to run if the user already had SDL and libpng installed.
