Overview

How do emulators work? That is the goal of this project. Just learn the rough process to emulate a Gameboy. The first step is to setup a basic game loop as you might for any other game. In the game loop you will want to execute one video frame of CPU cycles, then render the screen, and then wait any extra time to ensure your processor and video are running at the correct speed.
