Can VisualBoyAdvance Play Original Game Boy Games?

VisualBoyAdvance (VBA) is designed primarily for Game Boy Advance (GBA) titles. It supports backward compatibility for Game Boy Color (GBC) games via GBA's hardware compatibility mode, but it cannot run original monochrome Game Boy (DMG) games.

Compatibility Summary

• Game Boy Advance: Fully supported.
• Game Boy Color: Supported via GBA backward compatibility mode.
• Original Game Boy (DMG): Not supported.

To play original Game Boy games, you need an emulator specifically targeting that hardware, such as SameBoy, BGB, or GearBoy.
