Android Powers Up with GameBoy Emulator
by John Jorgensen on November 3, 2008

- AndroidBoy is a Nintendo GameBoy emulator that’s officially available in the Android Market app store right now.
- One of the iPhone’s first apps was a similar GameBoy emulator that was never approved by Apple and required a jailbroken phone.
- This is a good example of Google Android’s more liberal, open stance when it comes to apps allowed on their app store versus the iPhone’s.
- Sure, but is this taking it a little too far? While emulators are legal, the games themselves have copyrights. I wouldn’t be surprised if this got canned eventually.
