Virtual-E – a freeware emulator for NEC’s V810 Microproc (alias Virtual Boy’s proc.) written with Win32 and DirectX in C++.
This emulator is based on information and code provided by David Tucker and the documentation provided by NEC Semiconductors on V8XX Family Arquitecture.
This program is part of an ambicious project to connect the Virtual Boy to an IO port for graphic purposes.
As many Windows programs, the Virtual-E practically provides a self-learn-guided interface. In this version, to do emulation you must load a ROM, after this, you can start the emulation, load information about rom, stop emulation and reset.
The Virtual-E provides some options, like the priority of each thread in the emu, the frame rate and skip rate values, and the keypad configuration.
For PII/300 or higher processors we recommend to move the display thread to High Priority to get bigger FPS and let the CPU emulation works like the real VB.
