GnuboyGX is a port for the Nintendo Gamecube and Nintendo Wii (running in GC mode) of the open-source Gnuboy emulator, originally coded by Laguna and Gilgamesh.

This port is based on the last 1.0.4 CVS source, released by Joshua_ from EFNet #gameboy:
http://www.netaxs.com/~gevaryah/gnuboy-1.0.4pre.tar.bz2.
This has nothing to do with the previous GX port as it doesn't need GCLinux to run, only load the DOL into your console using various methods and have fun !
Features:
- Gameboy and Gameboy Color emulation with sound
- DVD & SDCARD support for rom loading
- support for 8MB roms
What's missing (work in progress):
- a nice GUI (for this wip, I quickly copypasted SMSPlus Gui sources)
- SRAM, Savestate and RTC loading/saving support
- User Configurable emulator options (to replace original .rc files support)
Menu:
Play Game : Run the game you just loaded or return to game
Reset Game: Reset emulator
Load from DVD: DVD must be ISO9660
Load from SDCARD: Roms must be placed in a directory named GBROMS
On DVD or SDCARD, the maximum number of files per directory is 1000. You CAN use subdirectories.
Stop DVD Motor: save the DVD Lens life
SD/PSO reload: if you used SDLOAD to load the DOL, come back to SDLOAD menu
Options & STATE Managment are not yet functionnal.
In-Game:
- Z Button let you come back to the menu when playing a game
- A is Button A
- B is Button B
- START is START Button
- X is SELECT Button
Thanks to Sofdtev for the generic libogc porting & GUI display sourcecode !
