Revision as of 15:13, 16 February 2024

SUPER Goomba is a Game Boy emulator for the GBA. It is a modified version of Goomba Paletted v2.32, which itself was based on Goomba.

This custom build features support for all 32 Super Game Boy palettes and a palette switch hotkey, it was later integrated into Goomba Paletted and Goomba Color.

Installation

Two versions are provided, goomba_raw.gba (barebones) and goomba_with_all_palettes.gba (includes SGB and GBC palettes).

You can also implement custom borders/palettes yourself:

copy /b goomba_raw.gba+BORDER_FILENAME.bin+PALETTE_FILENAME.pal goomba_NEW_FILENAME.gba

To compile the ROM, you can run Gooba Front or use the Python build scripts by patters.
