Someone is hacking goomba, an original gameboy game emulator, to make it play gameboy colour games.
Exciting no?

EDIT:
I edited this to make it clearer that I'm talking about a GBC emulator for GBA.

goomba is an original gameboy emulator for GBA. Somone recently made it so you can play gameboy colour games on it.

EDIT:

Alpha 2 is out. It's getting there.
Savestates are off though. *sad face*

VBA can do GB and GBC as well as GBA.
This is an emulator for GBA flash carts. Much like pocketnes (it's by the same author). While the GBA hardware CAN play actual GB and GBC games, until this point one needed a GBA bridge to play GBC games on a GBA flash cart.

I see.  I don't have a flash cart, but I can see why this is a good thing for people who do emulate on their gba.

Well there was a time when many people were asking for this kind of emulator.

I don't think any of them come here any more.

And it is also useful for those who own a DS, and can't play their GB or GBC on it.
