Gameboy Development Forum

In other words... if my rom runs smoothly on the emulator, does it mean it'll be as fast on the real thing?

I'm asking because i'm working on a GBDK project and until now I was only runnig my roms on BGB, but when I thought to test it on VisualBoyAdvance I verified that there's a subtle but noticeable lag.

I'm actually on the BGB Emulator home page right now and it says "Because of BGB's high emulation accuracy, if your rom works in BGB, it will most likely work on hardware too". But I wanted to know you guy's opinions. Also I've yet to get a Gameboy and flash cart for myself.

I know i'm supposed to keep my code optimized before encountering performance issues, but i'm new to this thing and i'm still testing the waters here.



Also, I'm Matheus. I'm new (new to this forum, to GBDK, to game making... just new across the board) and i'm building my very first game
