Grant Galitz, why do you keep submitting this on a new repository after Nintendo takes your old repository down (see https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2015-07-06-ninten...)? This is the 4th time you've submitted this to Hacker News, each time with brand new Hacker News and GitHub accounts. (The OP created his latest Hacker News account 4 hours ago at the time of this comment)
It's illegal, so no matter how many times you keep re-uploading it to GitHub it will eventually be taken down again and again. The more you defy Nintendo's DMCA takedown requests, the more likely Nintendo will notice and possibly try to track you down and sue you in person.
I understand that you want to show off your legal work (https://github.com/taisel/IodineGBA), but the only way to show it off is to require users to provide their own ROMs.
I guess he just doesn't read the DMCA sent to GitHub or something? If you're going to write an emulator, fine. Distribute copyrighted games? Don't do it... They keep taking you down over it. I agree with Sephr.
Oh, ok. Easy to mistake as Grant himself definitely did submit this a couple times in the past year, sometimes under his own ggalitz Hacker News account.
This is awesome. The music sounds horribly off key. I just checked out a youtube video of Bubble Bobble to be sure it's not my ears or memory - no the sound is off. Is the sound really broken or is it just on my machine (Mac Book)?
Firefox user on OS X reporting in. Super Mario Advance 4 caused a kernel panic within 60 seconds and force-rebooted my laptop. I was resizing the window while the emulation was taking place which may have been a factor.
Can anyone confirm? I don't have a mac but wouldn't JavaScript that can cause a kernel panic be defined as an exploit? (You might be able to resize it with an iframe)
It's pretty terrible. It's not hard to require that the user select a ROM from his or her local machine. Web browsers go to the trouble of supporting blob URLs for a reason.
http://taisel.github.io/IodineGBA/ is one where you load your own in. You need the BIOS ROM in addition to the game ROM, as it's all LLE emulation, no BIOS SWI HLE'ing.
Amazing. Can anyone give a brief description of how this works? It looks like it's already down too. www.letsplaysnes.com/ also does the same thing it looks like.
