  • Mednafen – Multi System Emulator Released (NES, GB, GBC, GBA, SMS, GG)

    Robo Hobo, the developer that is working on the Gambatte and Nestopia emulators, decided to take a break and has ported Mednafen. Mednafen is a multi system emulator with save states, that supports NES, GB, GBC, GBA, SMS, GG. He still recommends Gambatte and Nestopia if you plan to just play Gameboy or NES roms. Currently Mednafen only supports zipped roms, as there was a bug with unzipped roms (fix coming soon). Future versions should have PC Engine and PC Engine CD, as well as Atari Lynx, Neo-Geo Pocket and WonderSwan. Readme after the jump.
