Gameboy emulator coming soon to Windows phone homebrew community (Update: Now Available!)

Samuel Blanchard is hard at work. He is building a Gameboy emulator, called Wario's Jewel 7, for Windows Phone. The application is still under development phase. Current version is 0.4.5 which currently doesn't have audio output and portrait only mode. The developer has stated that the application will be made available to the public "very soon" so keep an eye out for it at official blog. Screenshot and details of emulator in action after the break.




Feast your eyes upon the images of Gameboy emulator in action:




The developer has also built a game list creator tool which makes lets users create their own list of games for quick access specifically for Wario's Jewesl 7 (Just drag and drop your GB Roms to the software, very nifty).
Remember that this emulator will only be made available for users with unlocked devices since Microsoft is strictly against emulators. We'll keep an eye out for release date.

Source: XDA 

Update: The emulator is now available. We have deployed the app and currently testing ROMs. We'll get back to you and tell you more about performance issues, if any.

Navigate to http://wj7.fr.cr/ and download the list and game creator to load your ROMs on your unlocked device. Also works on dev. beta 2 Mango.
