====Game Boy-only emulators====
;[[SameBoy]]:A relatively new emulator, probably the most accurate Game Boy emulator currently. The UI is simplistic simple and lacks mouse supporteasy to use. It includes open source bootroms, although these can be replaced with real ones. Also emulates Game Boy Camera and Game Boy Printer.
;[[BGB]]:A closed-source emulator for Windows (and [[Wine]]) with excellent Game Boy and Game Boy Color accuracy, as well as near flawless link support. It has a wealth of options for color palettes and even enabling Super Game Boy colors and borders, though it doesn't emulate all of its functions. It also has an advanced debugger.
;[[Gambatte]]:Extremely accurate open-source Game Boy/Color emulator. It has a good range of options and features, though not quite as much as some other emulators. It has not been as active lately.
This issue also affects [[Game Boy Advance emulators#Oversaturation|Game Boy Advance emulation]].
 
====Emulator options====
 
'''mGBA:''' Under Tools > Settings > Shaders, you will find three customizable '''Desaturation''' parameters.
 
'''VBA-M:''' Under Options > Game Boy, you will find the '''GB color option'''. The recent nightly builds also include the '''LCD Filter''' option.
===Unlicensed Mappers===
====Hudsonsoft KISS Link====
This accessory both allowed IR communications between 2 gameboys before the Game Boy Color existed with it’s IR port and with a modem, it allowed users to download exclusive content by them from Hudsonsoft's website. No emulator supports this.Resources about this super obscure accessory include http://nectaris.tg-16.com/GB-KISS-LINK-FAQ-hudson-gameboy-nectaris.html and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOuJ0EcA8IQ
===Accessories===
* '''Barcode Taisen Bardigun:''' Another Japan only barcode-scanning device with the dedicated game. GBE+ [https://shonumi.github.io/articles/art6.html supports this accessory].
* '''Singer Sewing Machine:''' There is link cable support for the Singer IZEK Digital Sewing Machine. The IZEK was unique in that it came bundled with a specially coloured Game Boy and a cartridge for interfacing with the machine.<ref name="IZEK_1">{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlhJKMXU7tg&t=5m25s|title=Game Boy Part 2 - Did You Know Gaming?

* '''Suzuki Pocket Dash Diagnostic System''' and '''Aprilia DITECH Interface''': A series of diagnostic cartridges used for Suzuki and Aprilia scooters respectively, developed by Orbital Technologies in the early 2000s. Both were used to interface with a supported motorcycle's engine control unit (ECU) in a similar manner to OBD tools for automobiles. Both were only made available for use by motorcycle dealerships and were not licensed by Nintendo. No dump of either cartridge exists as of {{CURRENTYEAR}}.
