'''GBE+''', full name '''GB Enhanced+''', is an open-source [[Game Boy/Game Boy Color emulators|Game Boy/Color]], [[Game Boy Advance emulators|Game Boy Advance]], [[Pokémon mini emulators|Pokémon mini]] and [[Nintendo DS emulators|Nintendo DS emulator]] with the goal of having all possible enhancements for these platforms. Main features are [[Texture Packs|tile replacement]], for custom sprites in games, or coloring Game Boy games. Later Shonumi (Named D.S. Baxter) turned his attention to obscure peripherals and has made many of these and titles that need them emulated for the first time. Nintendo DS emulation is a possible future feature. The emulator is a continuation and rewrite of Shonumi's previous project - GB Enhanced, which was deprecated due to the core not being robust enough.

<blockquote>''"This is likely the most compatible N64 emulator you’re going to come across. It can play games like Resident Evil 2, Rogue Squadron, Pokemon Snap, and World Driver Championship “out-of-the-box” (without the need to fiddle with settings, plugins, or anything of the sort)."''</blockquote>

As of 2020-11-01 m64p now features an newly added GUI option which enables LLE Graphics, this utilizes Parallel RSP (mupen64plus-rsp-parallel.dll) and Angrylion RDP Plus.

Parallel RSP is based on the work of [https://github.com/Themaister/parallel-rsp Themaister] and is a RSP option used in the [https://www.libretro.com/index.php/parallel-n64-with-parallel-rsp-dynarec-release-fast-and-accurate-n64-emulation/ Parallel N64 Libretro core]

Together with Angrylion RDP Plus this makes fast and accurate N64 emulation possible in m64p.

It's still possible to use GLideN64, Angrylion RDP Plus and cxd4 RSP in the latest versions of m64p.

The magic is that if you rename the file to match the equivalent plugin in the m64p directory, the plugin will work. However, the configuration needs to be done in mupen64plus.cfg.

Main features are tile replacement, for custom sprites in games, or coloring Game Boy games. Later Shonumi (Named D.S.

The emulator is a continuation and rewrite of Shonumi's previous project - GB Enhanced, which was deprecated due to the core not being robust enough. You can find the released version of this software below.

The release version of 1.0 Beta came after 2 years of progress and rewriting. Released on the same day as the original GBE, April 1st.
