Another fantastic emulator from Robert Broglia who has given us wonderful emulation (for the first time) of the Neo Geo Pocket and Turbografx 16, this time he has taken on one of the Market's staples - Gameboy.
I know there are many Gameboy emulators out there but this one really sets itself out from the pack by giving users (for the first time on Android) the ability the GBC had to add colour to original Gameboy games! You can even choose which of the set pallettes you would like a game to have, possibly even matching it better to the correct colours than the original Gameboy did!
This is along with all the Xperia Play support (and those other weird addons) that you would expect with the standard features of his other excellent emulators.
This one is a definite 10/10 and a MUST NOT MISS for all Xperia Play owners. Since downloading this I have not touched GBCoid, the added colour breathes life into the Game Boy library and you find yourself enthusiastically playing through games you played for a little bit than left with the colour options.
The emulator runs great, you can also map Save state to 'volume up' to allow it to be within easy reach!
Another interesting thing is saves from GBCoid seem to load here! (not sure if this is just for some games though)
This thread would be a good place to suggest the best pallette for games I think - perhaps we can turn the OP into a definitive list? As you guys post the right fit for games I will add them to the OP.
Adventure Island - Pastel
Mario Land 3: Wario Land - Yellow
Here is an example of original gameboy games with colour added by this emulator:
Adventure Island/Wario with the choices above look much better than Pokemon, which seems as if Pastel may be the correct colour choice. Zelda looks great with all the colours seemingly spot on!

I've already replaced all my oids with .emus, and have been recommending that everyone do the same.
My only regret is that I can't kill off all my -oids until Broglia makes a GBA.emu, SNES.emu and GG.emu
Well, his Snes.emu is actually SNES9x ex plus alpha, and is freely downloaded on his website. Check it out, as it is imho one of the better SNES emulators out there. At least it plays Star Ocean like a boss, where others choke hard.
+1 for SNES9x.
@TLR, you should definitely check it out. It replaced my SNESoid long ago.
snes 9x is legit, I got it on my play and wii

All the *.EMU are available for purchase on Google Play
Here is GBC.EMU
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.explusalpha.GbcEmu&hl=en
Im actually pretty shocked TLR didn't know about it, it was on the Market for a while before being removed because of licence complaints from others (despite fully conforming with the requirements that im aware of) and has always been amazing.
As to why you would use these emulators over the ~oid ones, 2 big reasons; They are more compatible and run better, and the second being linear filtering... that **** plagues pretty much every emulator on the market and all the other rip-off emulators you see around, some of them do have the ability to turn it off, but at the same time are hampered by ads, poor speed, or a crappy interface.
Robert Brogalia is responsive and helpful in my limited interactions with him, for an emulator he provided, for free, without ads he added changes to snes9x and by extension the rest of his emulators at the time so that I could use the volume rocker on my Milestone as an L trigger as well as other suggestions.
They are to my knowledge the best emulators available for their respective systems on the android platform, they are simple and do their job well, and that is why you pay that small entry fee IMO. Apologies for the rant... Xp

Well... that's because I don't really pay much attention to emulators.
I'm more of the opinion that Xperia Play is great without having to piggyback off of SNES, GBA, NES, PSX, Genesis and such (hence why I've flat-out refused to add a "emulators" section to XperiaPlayGamer.net despite the requests)... I'll get a bit nostalgic every blue moon and relive something I grew up with for a couple minutes... but by far and large, my biggest appeal in the Xperia Play is playing the Xperia Play Optimized games that are new, fresh, current and actually take advantage of the hardware... so yeah, I won't be too knowledge-rich when it comes to emulation (FTR, I was very late to ditch my -oids for .emus too).
I think I like supporting the devs and having the best of the best emus more than actually using them
If you are in the UK the magazine Retro Gamer is a fantastic accompaniment to the Play

Hope Robert will implement 1.52 core at some point because 1.43 is pretty fast but makes the snes tune sound wrong.
There's some debate as to which SNES emulators are the best. Snes9x Ex and Snesdroid (just found about this one and not yet tested on our phone) are derivatives of Snes9x. Snes9x Ex is based on 1.43, whereas Snesdroid is based on 1.52. What this means is that 9x Ex supposedly runs faster, while Snesdroid has generally greater audio quality and compatibility,
Market link
This port is not going to run fast like other Android ports no older hardware. SNES9x 1.52 has vastly improved audio compared to what all other Android ports use which is SNES9x 1.43. SNES9x 1.52 also has tons of minor bug fixes and the higher compatibility. Works fine with Xperia Play controls right off the bat.

The OP describes the difference between the Game Boy emulators
while i think GBC.emu (and the rest of the .emu series) is probably the best emulators out on android, and this is going to sound REALLY nit-picky, but i can't help but miss the cheat function that were in the -oid emulators
i know NES.emu recently added CHT file support but will the rest of the others get any cheat options soon? just wondering

Hi,
The Android OS has some amazing emulators. the PSX is here and soon will be a N64
*Link will come once new user restriction is removed so people can sign the petition*
If one looks at the PSP and Open Pandora scene you will notice that there is a Sega saturn emulator available on PSP and a Sega Dreamcast for the Open Pandora
Currently a Sega Saturn emulator could run on Android phones. A Dreamcast may or may not be possible until future hardware upgrades. Android phones update thier hardware much more frequently than Open Pandora and the PSP so developers can bring high end emulators to the Android operating system sooner.
The key benefits to developers with the Android Platform vs the Open Pandora or PSP platforms are
1: The Developers can actually sell the emulator's and make quite a nice bit of profit (optional)
2. Android reaches a far larger amount of users than the Open Pandora and PSP
3. Android phones are much more portable than Open Pandora and PSP
If you feel that our Android phones deserve more attention than the PSP and/or the Open Pandora please say yes to this Poll. Hopefully we can get enough people to post so we can see a working Sega Saturn/ Dreamcast emulator here in the future
Sincerely,
You got me excited for no reason.. I thought there were actual emulators in development. Very misleading title.
Someone has managed to emulate the two SH2's using a mobile processor?
The Saturn is a horrific platform to emulate, if this is possible in the current gen I'd be surprised, if it's playable I'd probably faint!
That noise was the sound of 12 people getting excited...
I don't know anyone who has played a Dreamcast or Saturn in the last 10 years.. Seriously.

If someone could get it working on a PSP Slim then they can do it on Android.
There is an emulator here yabause use (.org) This was already ported to the PSP
the PSP runs off of Linux so any dev who could get the source from that project would have a huge head start to port it to Android.
Then he can just use the same type of interface Yongzh and Zodttd do on their emulators and a lot of the leg work is done.
All that is really left is upping the compatibility and tweaking things.
From what i understand (very little) the PSP Slim runs off Linux as does Android at its core so it would not be such a long shot.
The Dreamcast is actually much easier to emulate as well which is why it is on the Open Pandora and the Sega Saturn is not.
The thing is if they would just direct their work to android the Open Pandora would be outdated. Why lug that around when you can have it on your phone?
drk|Raziel is working (I am testing) Dreamcast emulator
Meh just get a dreamcast and play them at home ;( there's plenty of games for the phone
I thought there were no functional saturn emulators? I spent a long time looking for one on the net, but never got one. I would really like to play guardian heros

I know it'll probably be a good while before anything is playable, but the proof-of-concept gave me an overwhelming feeling of nostalgia!! I've always dreamed of a day where I've be able to play a portable version of the Dreamcast. I killed hundreds of hours playing Phantasy Star Online while my parents and family were sleeping because it could only be played over dial-up at the time LOL
Can't wait to see some progress on this bad boy!! I still have my DC in the basement somewhere. Never had the heart to sell it.

PSP Games Coming To PlayStation Certified Devices
"The Entertainment Software Rating Board has listed several PSP titles for “PlayStation Certified Devices”, including Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror, Daxter and flOw (presumably the PSP version, not the PS3 one) and a whole bunch of Pinball Heroes games based on popular SCE properties – Fat Princess, ModNation Racers, Motorstorm, Wipeout HD, High Velocity Bowling, Hot Shots Golf, PAIN and Uncharted.
If the PSP games will be available on all PlayStation Certified products, that will include Sony’s S and P tablets, the Xperia Play, the Xperia Arc and Acro in Japan and the upcoming Xperia S and Xperia ion."
I remember the days when they flat out denied the rumors that Xperia PLAY would be a PSP Phone. Technically, I suppose they still could though since Xperia PLAY is it's own legitimate PlayStation Certified experience with it's own games instead of just being for PSP games.
OMG i hope so much this will happen!!
In the list is Uncharted! I think the title says it all.

The Sony Tablet S comes with Pinball Heroes and all those tables mentioned. I've been playing the game on mine.
Its like Crash Bandicoot. It comes preloaded on the tablet but it's not available in the PS Store yet.
Great news to hear about Daxter and the other. I love Daxter
This is exactly why we need good programmers for the Xperia Play
Because then we can take the PSP emulator they are using to play the games and reverse it to work with any PSP game ISO.
That would be ultimate and would get people interested in the system.
I suspected from the beginning that it would at least play PSP minis like the PS3. The timing of the Team FailOverfl0w keys and hacks and subsequent developments was too late in the development of the phone to change anything that may have also been vulnerable to it, hence, they hid, and delayed the functionality. I always thought that it was intended to do that and possibly full-blown PSP games except that the functionality was possibly removed and abandoned when the PSP and PS3 were blown wide open.

I think it'd be more like a PSPminis wrapper than an emulator and I've suspected that it had some hidden PSP DRM and such all along. Any serious PSP titles would need to be ported or have some hidden hardware support in the phone.
I opened the PS Store with my Japanese PSN account on my Tablet S and found 3 free games. I can't read Kanji but I found this article describing them http://www.bemreview.com/2011/12/sony-tablet-controller-ps3-with-software-upgrade.html
Ape Escape Academy
Piyotama lite
QRuToN lite
both Lite games seem to have PSP buttons on the screens but Ape Escape has the PSP buttons and two on screen thumb sticks. What's weird is none of these games have the Save Progress function when you quit like all the PSOne games I've played do.
I'd also like to mention Pinball Heroes has no on-screen button controls, just touch controls but it was also originally a PSP game.
they better get god of war id be so happy
This great news. I've been wanting PSP games on my Play from the very moment I started using it.
The only sony phone I ever truly enjoyed was the c905. If they would remake that and make a universal charger and 3.5mm audio jack instead of their large obscure sony charger, they would probably have more clients. The new xperia wasnt that big of an eye catcher, sure it was like a psp but other than that it was like the other xperia's. The firmware was slow and updates for crashes/bugs took forever.
Sony has started on a downward spiral. They need to create something amazing to bring me back as a customer

There is nothing that says for use that the PSP games that end up on this phone will be emulated. Its very possible that they have (as CZRoe mentioned) some sort of wrapper on them to get them to work natively with the phone, but it likely has custom programming for each game.
We will need to see what these games look like (on the back end) before this is even something to consider possible.

Its about time! Too bad we will never be able to play any of our previous digitally purchased games on the play due to different system (processor, OS, etc.) unless Sony ports all the games then based off your Network Purchase history will allow you to rewdownload the Xperia Play version for free. (I wouldnt hold my breath, this has always been a gimmick with Sony to make money off games they already have, and have reached their shelf life) I.E.... UMD Games, the digital games for the GO, that you had to re-purchase, now it will be Xperia/Arc/S Tab etc ported versions you will have to purchase once again!

Keep dreaming. Sony made the PSP dev kits to allow quick porting to PS2, PS3, and other platforms. PSP minis all compile to run on both PSP and PS3. So, it's either out-right native ports or a code translation engine with wrappers for natively unsupported functions and system calls ala cXbx. Either way, it will take a commercial level of effort and understanding to make each title function and this will be required per title.

It's made by Robert ****in Broglia!!!! That's what makes it so much better.
I jest, I jest... I don't actually have this one yet, but I do have all of Broglia's other emulators, and I can tell you that this dude's serious about quality assurance... to a level that most other emulator devs haven't been.
Can someone who has this test the public domain GBA homebrew game Wonkie Guy? It's not even a full game, yet it's been one of my favorites for near a decade... and more importantly, every other GBA emulator I've tried curled up in fetal position and started bawling every time I tried to load it.
Brilliant. I bought his GBC and NGP emulators and they both worked flawlessly, so going to buy this to replace Gameboid. Top notch :good:
Might sound stupid but can you map the dpad to the touchpads in this emulator? - Thanks
Gameboid works good for me but my biggest problem is the graphics look blurry from the upscaling. I would buy this emulator if there is a setting which adds filters to make the games look "better"
I hate to say it but I think people should wait before buying this one. Having bought and now had a chance to test it, I consider the performance of it to be much poorer than Gameboid.
Noticeable on-screen judder during playback with frameskip enabled and slows to a crawl when frameskip is disabled. Sound isn't much better. One can only hope that this gets fixed and much improved with further updates.
The reason I bought this emulator is because all the emulators by this developer allow you to turn off the blurry graphics in the settings, unlike Gameboid and other emulators.
The emulator however is a bit slower but at 1.6GHz all games I tried were full speed to me.
Hope FPse does this (touchpad) in the future, will definitely get this app.

Went ahead and bit the bullet.
It plays the games that failed to load on Gameboid. I am satisfied

Seeing as none of his other emulators have cheat capability (if that is incorrect plz correct me) on Android OR iOS I doubt it. And I have both versions (Xperia Play and iOS {5.1.1 Jailbroken on iPhone 4S}) and often sound is a problem in some games like Sonic Advance 3 where all you hear is the music and nothing else (like jumping noises, or other collision noises) and the sound is crap without frame skip to 1.
ePSXe has been released officially for Android on Google Play
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.epsxe.ePSXe
It's important to say: Doesn't support the Xperia Play hardware buttons and has less configuration than FPSe.
After a 4 years hiatus, it is finally time for some news about ePSXe's development.
ePSXe 1.8.0 is almost finished and is currently in testing phase. If all goes well we expect to release it in a few weeks. This version will include compressed iso support (PBP), SBI support (such as used by redump.org), updates for multitap, disc change and spu and of course a lot of compatibility related fixes.
We were thinking of different ways to get funds for the development of ePSXe and finally decided to develop an Android port. If you want to support the ePSXe development please buy the Android port in the Google Play Market. It contains the ePSXe core, the internal SPU plugin, a new experimental internal soft GPU plugin and a new 2 players mode for tablets.
We would like to give our thanks to Gladiator, from www.psxdatacenter.com, for the thousands of tests he has done in the last 4 years. Without his help creating a version with high compatibility would have been almost impossible. Many thanks to you and your brother . We would also want to give our thanks to Shalma who worked on ePSXe Shark, several plugins and plugins "repairs series". He did a wonderful job, some would even consider it "magic", finding then fixing numerous bugs and deserves our most sincere thanks and admiration.
Finally we want to thank you the ePSXe users for supporting our 12 years old child "ePSXe"
We have created a twitter account "epsxeteam", where we expect your impressions about the emulator. Please don't use this account to request support and instead use ngemu.com forums.
Regards,
ePSXe Team.

Speedwise it runs perfectly, but CDDA sounds are a bit buggy. But for now, it's looks promising and could turn out to be better than FPSe.
This is a really cool idea!
Not sure how well it would work in real life though
It's good to have an alternative to fpse since psx4droid didn't work on GB 2.3.4
I just bought the app to give it a whirl. So far Crash bandicoot 2 runs sweet as a nut. Testing chrono cross right now which also seems pretty spot on!
There are a few little audio niggles but I can live with that.
Also latest version has button mapping!
For people who are intrested i'm using the AOKP version of ICS. I haven't over clocked my CPU either
The hardware buttons work fine, also it's possible to map volume buttons as R2 and L2.
Unlike FPSe you can use and map the circle button normally (IMO).
Also the emulator has preview screenshots in Load State menu. :good:
The bad part: The game doesn't pause when you press the Menu button
Soul Reaver: The game flashes when you play it.

in FPSe the R1 and R2 buttons work fine, my only problem is the circle. I uninstalled it and reconfigure it and don't solve.
ePSXe work fine with the HW buttons and Castlevania SOTN and Thread of Fate.

I'm aware of what you said the problem was. My question was, is it a general problem or one related to ICS? since I've had no such problem with GB.

I've Jelly2Bean 2.3.4 rom. But not problem, I put my trust in this emulator.
What about the 2 player mode? it sounds awesome.

Very good emulator. Graphics aren't anything to write home about at the minute, but it's super reliable. Suikoden 1, which has sound skip on FPSE and native emulator, plays perfectly sound and all. All the 3D Final Fantasys too.
Haven't found a game that it doesn't play perfectly yet.
This works really well tried marvel vs capcom mgs vr missions dino crisis and star wars episode one

Working great on Samsung Galaxy SIII (USA Verizon SCH-I535 ICS 4.0.4), besides aforementioned audio hiccups.
Is there a way to use the analog sticks from my bluetooth gamepad?
This sounds good.
FPSE is good, but updates seem to make some games work better and some worse. Plus, I hate the way you have to mess with loads of options for each game. Was gutted when my complete Tekken 3 save went missing too.
Think I'll give this a go.

A New arcade emulator (Final Burn Alpha Port) for Android. The Dev has posted this in the main XDA apps section (Full Version For FREE) but if people missed it i wanted to bring it to your attention. Works fine with Xperia Play and controls. Its already mapped if just click on the Joystick icon in-game and select hardware keys and turn off the on-screen pad. Been able to play loads of sweet games like metal slug 5, Street Fighter III 3rd Strike: Fight for the Future and Progear . Hopefully this will be supported better then Tiger Mame.

Finaly Great News man!
Thanks for sharing.
FBA is a great emulator so I'll test this port. Thanks for sharing this info.
hi guys, i want to know how comes on mine, it didnt read any cps3 roms. They are img files, along with a ccd and sub file, where do I put these files?
Isn't Tiger Arcade FBA as well? All the roms I kept from my Windows Mobile FBA emulator work on it. If this is the case is there anything that this emulator does better? Thanks!

Tiger's was a Mame emulator. This is the same sort of thing (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) but final burn is said to be faster with some games, better then Mame on lower end device's and has a good support. Really its down to your choice what one you use. The only difference with this and TigerMame as an Android emu is this is still in development, Plays more CPS3 titles, UI is much better and other small details really.

This emu only reads games from arcade machine boards not CD img's. You will find them on Google/Web in Zip format (Don't Unzip or rename. The emulator reads them like this). No way else of acquiring them unless you carry around a 5-6ft Arcade Machine's with you
Really? Tiger Arcade even thanks the FBA team in the credits and many state that it is in fact a port of FBA. Like I said my FBA romset from windows mobile 6.5 work perfectly on Tiger Arcade and the FBA team even states in their history "FB Alpha supports games on Capcom CPS-1 and CPS-2 hardware, SNK Neo-Geo hardware, Toaplan hardware, Cave hardware" which is the exact same as the supported list for Tiger Arcade. I'm not trying to be argumentative but I'd love to hear from someone else familiar with the two emulators to see if they also believe it is the same emulator. And even still, is this coded better than Tiger Arcade and which CPS3 games does it support over Tiger (since I haven't had an issue in any) because if so I'll check it out but if it has a way to go and supports the same rom-set I'll pass.

Never knew till checked it out fully. Tiger is based on FBA even though he states it as mame just looked at his source on github https://github.com/tigerking/arcade/blob/master/license.txt .Still this should be better due to UI and later FBA code then tiger used over a year ago with his. Plus the fact that it's still being developed and is free (tigerMAME) you have to pay to save as I can remember. This also will run on later Android OS as I know his emulator has issues on ICS and Jellybean (but does not really affect play users). Sorry for the miss information

I don't know why I can't remap the hardware buttons....

He left out a line of code. He will add in next version. But for some reason just press the set buttons then press use hardware keys to take off on-screen ones. For some reason the play is already mapped. Fully works on mine with all buttons mapped that way.

Yeah, the controllers are fully mapped but I would like to arrange them... Neogeo and CPS have differents button order.
Thanks for your response, I'll be wait for the next update.
This emulator is really good. Already impressive for an early/incomplete release.
What i notice:
-If you did not download the 100MB package, it will always ask you to do it
-Buttons are set. I tried to edit the xml file in the data/data folder (the format looks exactly like neodroid), but it did not work. I want to change it because I am very used to playstation controls with like MvC for example.
-I sometimes experience force close if i end the emulation (does not matter much)
-Cannot overwrite a saved state. Is this how it really works?

Ahhh, I didn't know it was free and based off a newer version. I'll have to keep an eye on this then. I was actually really let down when I got my Xperia Play and certain FBA games I was used to playing on my Dash 3g actually ran slower despite the Xperia Play's incredible processing superiority compared to the D3. I hope we see great things out of this because if the winmo version of FBA is any benchmark we should easily see full speed with sound on in most games whereas I currently play them all without sound.
GREAT
i hope can play golden ax
Hello!
What settings (keys) that you guys use this emulator? Could you pass me please, I am not getting set here
thank you
could the dev please add autofire option in the control options menu (fba on all other devices has this)
its a real chore rapidly stabbing away on physical buttons, not to mention bad for the hardware,
and rapid stabbing of the fire button on touchscreen controls is even worse, whole device shakes, etc.
cheers
thanks for making afba!
but would you let me know how to get into the software setting?
you know like, credits life difficulty some sort of.
because i'm playing dodonpachi dai-ou-jou.
but, it's default setting is easy difficulty with 'discontinue' on!
so i tried service on the menu but, it doesn't work.
I recommend FBA4DROID 1.65, is similar aFBA. :good:
