+description = "A port of the TGB Dual Game Boy emulator to libretro. While this core is a decent, usable emulator, it is most notable for being able to emulate to Game Boys connected via Link Cable, which is useful for things like trading Pokemon, etc. This functionality can be utilized by a second player either locally or via netplay (if supported by the libretro frontend). Thanks to the core's modest hardware requirements, it should run well even on low-powered hardware, though users with more powerful hardware may be better served by the SameBoy core, which can also do the same Link Cable functionality but with improved accuracy and compatibility."

While remaining relatively conservative and true-to-the-original, this core provides the additional features of running at fixed framerates (with interpolated animations applied on the keyframe for smooth animation at greater-than-original framerates), software bilinear filtering, software Half-Life/Quake 2-style colored lighting RGBA and third-person view mode. Check the libretro documentation for an explanation on the directory structure required to load BGM files, etc."
