There has been a lot of discussion and confusion going on when it comes to speedrunning Game Boy / Game Boy Color games in the past, especially when it comes to picking the correct emulator or even hardware. Although the Game Boy community is relatively small compared to more popular systems like NES and SNES, we do our best to inform newcomers to the do's and don'ts to get them started.

A few threads have been made already on this website, where information can be gathered. But we decided to make a separate website where everyone can find the information they need bundled together. Not only does it contain all the info you need about speedrunning Game Boy games, there are also pages about the Tiny Ten speedrunning race, the GB Monthly speedrun challenge, a list of dedicated GB streamers and all kinds of articles about Game Boy in general. In the future we will also provide in tutorials for a whole bunch of Game Boy games.

Spread the word to your friends and family and bookmark www.gbrunners.com already, won't you?

Dear admins,

Would you be so kind to add "Portable Marathon" as a thread under the Marathon section of the forums?

We are currently setting up our second edition and would like to promote it some more. Although a thread exists on the SDA forums (see link below) it doesn't seem to be able to get the word spread as much as it would on speedrun.com.

A short description: The portable marathon exists of 10 original Game Boy games (other portable platforms in the future). It gets hosted on the ESA twitch channel thanks to the support of Bangerra. The main focus of the marathon is to showcase (unheard of) Gameboy games to the speedrun community in order to expand the love for the platform.

Thanks in advance.
