Title: looking for a GBA emulator for PSP that supports GBC games in GBA mode
Post by: satoshi_matrix on May 18, 2010, 09:01:31 pm
Anyone know of a GBA emulator for PSP that supports GBC games in GBA mode? I want to play Shantae and a few other "GBA enhanced" GBC games again on my slim PSP.

Thanks.

There isn't any PSP emulator for that. Game Boy emulators on support Game Boy Advance roms, and Game Boy/Game Boy Color emulators only support Game Boy/Game Boy Color roms.

Actually I found what I was looking for, and for the record you are incorrect. There's an emulator called Master Boy which is both a Sega Master System/GameGear and Gameboy emulator. The Gameboy mode supports GB/GBC in everything that supported the old carts, from Grayscale Gameboy mode to SGB to GBC to GBA.

Does Master Boy emulate all the games you've played correctly?  I've never really seen an emulator that emulates multiple consoles and actually performs well doing so.

Shantae has some random graphical glitches but they can be cleared up by refreshing the screen, but I've never seen anything that can handle Shantae 100% besides the original cart.

Yeah, I was playing the wonderfully Engrish translation of Pokémon Green in SGB mode earlier.

"Will you pick Squirtle?" or in Green's terms,

"The PET stepped on the water is dependent on the tortoise?"
