About

This is the second in a series of emulators I've worked on, with the eventual goal of writing a GBA emulator. In comparison to the preceding CHIP-8 emulator, the Intel 8080 processor is a much more complicated machine. Its instruction set is almost ten times the size of the CHIP-8's, and it requires the implementation of tricky concepts like hardware interrupts.

Many video arcade games were built around the 8080 microprocessor, including Space Invaders, one of the most popular arcade games ever made. I've also sourced two lesser-known arcade games, Balloon Bomber and Lunar Rescue, both of which appear to work well on this emulator.
