# Gopher2600
Gopher2600 is an emulator for the Atari 2600 written in the Go language.
Gopher2600 is an emulator for the Atari 2600 written in Go.
The accuracy of the emulation is very high and there are no known outstanding
problems with the 6507, TIA and RIOT chip emulation. Emulation of the ARM chip
is currently limited to the Thumb subset of instructions but it does include
accurate cycle counting and performance monitoring.
Accuracy is very high and and there are no known problems with the emulation of the 6507, TIA or RIOT chips.
It is an ongoing project and bug reports are welcome.
