YEP!!!

FIXED!

I enabled 2d/3d video acceleration in VirtualBox Settings!

Nobody compiled the emulator for mac/linux?
One very simple suggestion about the source code would be to remove the counter in the top left corner, so it won't appear on people's screen shots.

The emulator works perfectly fine with wine, I might try to compile it natively some time though.

That what just out of curiosity, so I can put the emulator binaries along with the java toolkit.

Are we able to add some code into the project that prints out in the emulator console window?

That's probably a good idea, it's not very useful for most people.

I have a feeling the AVR simulator can already do that.

I don't have a lot of time right now but I'll see what I can do.

I managed to compile the binaries with no compiler errors on Ubuntu 12.04.5 i386 on a VM. Unfortunately I cannot test it because with Unity enabled, it just launches a black box and with Gnome2 & Gnome3 it just says "Invalid renderer". I believe it is because it is a VM and the graphics rendering is already pretty sketchy anyway. So if anyone wants to test it on a native box, that'd be awesome. I didn't know if the simavr folder the compiler produced was required, so I included it as well.

tar.gz of the entire compiler output (gbsim & simavr folders)
MD5 checksum for gbsim.tar.gz
SHA256 checksum for gbsim.tar.gz
Virustotal results for gbsim.tar.gz

All credit for the source goes to the authors and as per the license, the source for the above object code can be found on Github

I can put up an x86_64 vm and build them as well if needed. Also a suggestion as far as the counter in the emulator display goes, you could just add a command line switch to enable it rather than removing it completely. Something like "gbsim <elf_file>" for no counter and "gbsim -c <elf_file>" to enable the counter.

Someone suggested it's because VMs often can't do 3D graphics. I'm not sure whether SDL2 can work without it.

Thanks for compiling the emulator for Ubuntu
I wanted to give it a try, but I can't download it, I get "This webpage is not available". Although the main page of your website works fine.
