The Gameboy gameshark doesn't touch the ROM. It only has one cheat type, which writes a number into a specified memory location.

I don't think it is currently in the works. Calc84maniac had two camping vacations in a row and is currently working a bit on F-Zero I think

Gamesharks only change values in the RAM(or Flash, if that's how the game is saved), that is correct.

Unfortunately, I think the project may have died, since Calc84maniac lost the source code in a craptop hard drive failure, but I think the current version emulate games pretty well. I do not recall hearing much issues and I did not get any myself except maybe sometimes with Dragon Warrior I & II Bundle. I can't wait for Ndless 2 as well.

I had issues with Zelda, where the calc froze completely, but I think it's probably the ROM's fault.

Hmm, the reason this is possible is that, well, the gameboy had a z80 processor, thus, the calc must be able to emulate it. The nspire can emulate it too, because an ARM processor is much more advanced than the z80 processor

These are my thoughts, if I am wrong, tell me

Well, it still needs to translate things to ARM format, though. Had the Nspire used a z80, there would be much less translation to be done, since both processors would be similar. This is why a GB emulator was possible on the 84+SE, even if those calcs are only 15 MHz. I could be wrong as well, though. Not that it matters much, though, because the Nspire is fast enough to emulate the GBC, anyway.

If you ever revive this, are you planning to add support for more than 1 page of ROMs in the game menu?

Even better - an OS hook to run ROMs directly from the my documents screen.

I have a gameboy advanced somewhere in my house. I'm sure that you could make an emulator for that, on later calculators. Very interesting work.
