It is also available as a [[libretro]] core in [[RetroArch]], based on unofficial Linux SDL port. The most common version which was translated to English by the author is ver. 7, but later an unofficial translation of v8.3.1 surfaced.

==OverviewPorts and forks==Top The emulator is very old and obsolete nowadays. Still, there were recent tries to update the codebase and support new features include very high accuracy. First, there was shinichiro.h's SDL port, [httpswhich added no new features. After that came a few forks://sameboy ===TGB Dual Kai===This fork was made by gameboym on his blog and mainly adds settings and a debugger.githubAfter about a year of development, the fork went dead in 2013.io/debugger/ debugging tools] via  ===TGB Dual "L"===At first, a try at a command linepseudo-official continuation with ver. 9 release, the author named libertyernie soon found out about the Kai fork and most standard added his enhancements to the newer codebase as TGB Dual "L". New features found in other top emulators. The UI is very crisp are a full translation from Japanese, Goomba Color files compatibility and clean lookingmirror mode.
Sameboy ==Plugins==TGB Dual supports plugins for additional devices. On the official site, there is also available as a [[libretro|Libretro Core]]. ([httpshttp://docsgigo.libretroretrogames.com/librarytgb/sameboydevices.zip download] for them. They are for the Barcode Reade, Pocket Printer and IR linking. As all documentation is in Japanese. The [[Game_Boy/ more infoGame_Boy_Color_emulators#Barcode_Boy|Barcode Boy])] implementation just generates random data until a valid barcode is accepted, as discovered by Shonumi in his reverse engineering work for [[GBE+]].
==IssuesNetplay==All menu options are handled via the on screen gui and rom files must be dropped on the screen '''You will need a VPN to be started netplay with this emulator.'''
