What is Gaemboy?

Gaemboy is an online emulator that lets you play retro handheld games in your browser on desktop and mobile. It supports cloud saves, cheats, customizable controller skins and link-cable style multiplayer for supported games.

How does it work?

The emulator cores run in your browser using WebAssembly, so games play at full speed without any server-side processing of your gameplay. You can install Gaemboy as a PWA for an app-like experience.

Which platforms does it emulate?

Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS.

Does Gaemboy host games?

No. Gaemboy is an emulator only — it does not host or distribute games. You load your own legally obtained game files, which are processed locally in your browser.

How are saves handled?

Saves are kept on your device, and with an account you can enable cloud saves that sync your progress across devices. Automatic recovery saves help you avoid losing progress.
