DS Misc > Game Boy Color emulator

Has anyone developed a Game Boy Color emulator for the DS? I just think that since they took out the ability to play GBC games on the DS it would be perfect.

goomba color for the GBA works very, very well.

a DS port would perhaps be nice, as not all games run perfectly in GBC's double speed mode, but, funnily enough, since i got my ez4lite i've been spending most of my time with my dsl playing gameboy color games.

He made it for the gba, and refuses to port it to DS.

I thought there wasnt a GBC emulator?
Only a GB emulator that played colour (dual-compat) games?

eg.
stuff like the Zelda oracle games or Perfect Dark wont run.

That was Goomba original by FluBBa.

Dwedit forked Goomba, adding GBC support, and released the result as Goomba Color. No, I don't know how accurately Goomba Color runs GBC homebrew, given that I don't have any GBC flash equipment to test against.

It runs commercial games well, just a bit slow in some cases, so homebrew shouldn't be a big problem.

it seems to run my homebrew decently enough. only thing missing is hicolor support, but that appears to be a known problem
