Arguru and PSP 3D have just released a new GameBoy/GameBoy Color homebrew emulator for PSP. Dubbed SpiceBoy, the emulator offers full speed FPS emulation of all GB/GBC ROMs. Though parts of the emulator were taken from InfoBOY, a Win32 GB/GBC emulator, most of the project has been handcoded/tweaked from the original project, and offers emulation as well as Homer's RIN (considering it's the first release, R0 (Release 0), coded in under a day).

A few things to note about SpiceBoy R0 are:
- There's no browser (user manually would have to replace: rom.gb).
- Sound is not synced with emulation properly.
- No savestates.

Other than that, SpiceBoy is a full-fledge, full speed GB/GBC emulator, and rest assured that a new version will be release shortly with a ROM browser, correctly synced sound, and possibly, savestates and multiplayer. Consider this a pre-mature, but working, release; it's a heck of a great job for one day's worth of work.

Not to be rude, but why make one when there are many full speed gbc emu's around, its nice to see people doing this kind of stuff though

AFAIK theres only homer's rin, and though thats a good emulator, I am very happy to see a new one. Plus, this was done in only ONE day and offers full speed emu, homers took well over a few months to get to where it is now.

Indeed. It's already fixed. Admin already has an update with a rom browser and GBC proper pixel color conversion (r2).
