Play Gameboy Classics In Your iPhone Browser With This New Emulator

It seems like emulator news is the flavor of the week, between webNES, GBA4iOS, and now Ben Midi’s Gameboy. Like webNES, it runs entirely inside of mobile Safari, so unlike GBA4iOS you don’t have to install anything weird, roll your date back, or anything else. It works quite well, particularly in landscape mode:

Here’s the current list of playable games as of this writing.:

  • Mario Land
  • Tetris
  • Dr. Mario
  • Bomberman
  • Kirby’s Dream Land
  • Kirby XXL
  • Space Invaders
  • Motocross Maniacs
  • Bomb Jack
  • Boxxle 2
  • Castelian
  • Centipede
  • Stopwatch

Since this web emulator seems to be actively hosting and providing access to these different real Nintendo games, it seems like it’s prime material for a cease and desist from Nintendo. Regardless, it’s a pretty neat thing to fiddle with while it stays up, so if you’re looking for a blast from the past mash this link and go nuts.
