Overview
BGB by beware is one the most accurate Gameboy emulators around. It has a no$gmb-like debugger, but lacks some of the inaccuracies of no$gmb. Its accuracy is possibly only surpassed by KiGB, but consdiering it has both an excellent accuracy and a powerful deugger, and is freeware, it is probably the best choice for developers.
