PS4 GBEmu: GameBoy Emulator (Beta) for PS4 by RetroGamer74

Hi guys, following my last update regarding the topic of a GameBoy Emulator for PS4 here is an early PS4 GBEmu Beta.

Previously PlayStation 4 developer @CTurt also made available a port of the Cinoop GameBoy emulator to PS4 via WebKit exploit for those following.

Still many things to fix. Even the sound is ok under Windows Unity Editor, it does not work well in PS4. It looks to be a problem of frequencies.

I'll have to check it. Here is a sneak peak.

Here is the PKG for downloading. I've included just one ROM which is Super Mario Land 2. Some more GB / GBC ROMs can be found courtesy of SCORPION1399 below:

Download: ED1685-NPXX51385_00-0000000000000000-A0100-V0100.pkg (58.8 MB) / GAMEBOY_1483_ROMS.rar (170.2 MB) / GBC_1005_ROMS.rar (GameBoy Color ROMs Pack - 462.8 MB) / ED1685-NPXX51385_00-0000000000000000-A0100-V0100.pkg (389.8 MB - Beta 2) / Passcode

There are 2 main things still under development:

1. First one is File Manager integration to load ROMS. This is easy to do using the File Manager you could see some days ago. To complete this task it would be great some of you could do a big package of all ROMS as he can and make me available for download it. I will add it to the compilation.
   
   
2. Second one will be fix the sound issue.

Hope you enjoy.

Apart of this great job... Today scene gave a lot of good step into the homebrew with PSP HD emulator.. Maybe in a couple of day/hours will be release... Great great counting with you @RetroGamer74 to contribute with you knowledge.

Question: If this emulator was grab because parappa game for has necessary files to compare with other PSP release, it means the possibility to bring to ps4 a ps3 emulator, analysing the ps3 remaster final fantasy x HD for example, probably is the same.

Can you please comment more deeply this emulators question in this forum and in your live stream today? Regards to all and in special for developers.

@RetroGamer74 : GameBoy Color game work now ?

 

[DEFAULTDNB]

@RetroGamer74 someone just posted about emUnity, might be worth checking out for wiiflow style game loader?

@Holypsx lol no. Ps3 remasters do not work like that. They arent emulated, theyre ported.

 

[edsonlp1]

Great job!

 

[Holypsx]

@DEFAULTDNB hahah I gave a shot to air in theory and thanks for your clarification.

This time, because the hype started to go up, we need new things to believe.

Continue yours, good job and research, we need this, and of course we are here to help. Thanksss
