Goomba & PocketNES ~ Not totally dead.

You see, Dwedit has been updating these two awesome emulators for Gameboy Advance. Unfortunately, most emu sites, even GBA-centric ones, aren't covering this.

Cool, I didn't know that Goomba Color was still being updated. I'll start using this instead of LameBoyDS.

Will Goomba Color run black and white games just as fine as the regular Goomba? I never even tried. Or is the old Goomba still worth having?

Does PocketNES run Kid Icarus at good speed?

It seems to run alright but the sound is very scratchy. PocketNES often has trouble with sound.

All the games I've tested out on both have run pretty much identically. I do however keep the regular Goomba program handy in case I'm only interested in taking mono GB games with me. The regular Goomba takes up less space on the flash cart. Not that much less, but it helps if you're trying to cram as much crap onto a 256 mbit as possible.
