GameBoy Emulator on ROBLOX!?

By MrAtomikBlaster

Editors: Wegggieninja and Gamerdude5

You heard it right, someone made a pretty realistic GameBoy Emulator in ROBLOX! It appears as if they took the code of an actual emulator, and converted it to Lua! However, it currently only runs Pokemon Red Version, and now a few other games. Question is, how good does it run and is it worth playing?

This is the title screen, there’s a loading screen before this, however.

Gameplay

It’s Pokemon, you should know how to play already! Gotta catch ‘em all, duh. Oh, you wanted to know how to play as in controls? Well, the game description will tell you, and it says the arrow keys work with the D-pad (Plus-pad), so A is the A button, S is the B button, D is the Start button, and F is the Select button. If you can’t play Pokemon, then learn, dang it! I ain’t explaining how to play Pokemon for you.

Opinion

It was incredibly slow for me, as in how fast everything processed. I think it’s a combination of my computer’s bad speed and the game being in early development. If you don’t want to download an emulator, and you wanna socialize with other people as you play, this is the game for you. Though, I feel that the servers shouldn’t be 50-player servers. If anything, make 1-player servers separately.

Rating

Gameplay -10/10, incredible. I have no other words to describe how awesome it looks.

Scripting – 10/10, also incredible. It executes just like a real emulator.

Building – N/A, it’s only GUI’s.

Functionality – 4/10, it’s incredibly slow. Then again, it could just be my computer. But as I stated earlier, it runs on 50-player servers.
