Pitch

I saw that a previous team attempted an NES emulator so I thought it could be interesting to do something similar with a Gameboy emulator. I would prefer to work in C++ for the project for performance reasons. My goal would be to get simple graphics to draw to the screen, but I'm not expecting that it would be possible to get existing games to run within a semester. The project should be able to take in standard Gameboy ROM files and run the Gameboy's instruction set in real-time.
