Apps – Android Authority
Game Boy and Game Boy Color were the handheld consoles that started it all. Their release showed that you could have well-made games that fit in your pocket. Handheld game consoles have evolved a lot since then, but there are many who still enjoy the classics. Let’s take a look at the best Game Boy emulators, Game Boy Color emulators, and Game Boy Advance emulators for Android! The good news is that most of these are rather mature so they don’t have a ton of bugs.
The best Game Boy Advance, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy emulators
ClassicBoy Pro
Price: Free / $5.99
ClassicBoy is one of a couple of decent all-in-one emulators. This one has a bunch of consoles, including PlayStation, Sega Genesis, NES, and, of course, Game Boy Color, Game Boy, and Game Boy Advance. It does what you expect an emulator to do. The app supports almost all of the games and all of the ones we tested. Additionally, you get save states, load states, fast forward, and cheat code support. There is even hardware controller support. The free version has a few features missing that the premium version includes. The only real knock is the app hadn’t seen an update in years and only just started receiving updates again. We’re sure it’ll be great again soon, but the developer is working on some stuff as of the time of this writing.
