===Comparisons===
;[[Mednafen]]: Has 100% compatibility with commercial games. Lets you change the Virtual Boy's '''color output''' to any hex color. For example, changing it to white shows all the games in greyscale instead of red, which really helps. 3D is enabled by default, but you can turn it off. To play it on platforms not supported by Mednafen use the [[libretro]] port which also supports SBS 3D by using glsl shaders, check this [https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/4ibw0b/emulating_virtual_boy_in_3d_on_gear_vrgoogle/ Reddit post] for instructions. Doesn't seem to run at playable speeds on 3DS using the latest nightly build as of 2020-06-15,.
;[[VBjin]]: Also has 100% compatibility with commercial games. Has a fork that [[VBjin#Downloads|supports the Oculus Rift]].
;Rustual Boy: Claims [https://github.com/emu-rs/rustual-boy/blob/master/README.md#known-game-compatibility 100% compatibility], however, accuracy isn't as good as Mednafen or even VBjin, and speed is even worse.
;[https://github.com/mrdanielps/r3Ddragon r3Ddragon]:Supports 3D on the New 3DS. Is slow and not finished. Based on Reality Boy / Red Dragon.
;Planet Virtual Boy emulator: New VB A Virtual Boy emulator written in Javaand it was first released in 2018. Might get 3DS support in the futurewas planned. [https://www.virtual-boy.com/forums/t/pvb-emulator/ Forum thread]
