For the emulator, I assume that you meant BizHawk? That's what Google turned up, anyway. http://tasvideos.org/BizHawk.html

Their Neo Geo Pocket page (http://tasvideos.org/Bizhawk/NGP.html) says, "Neo-Geo Pocket emulation is done via porting the core from mednafen."

The Mednafen Neo Geo Pocket page (https://mednafen.github.io/documentation/ngp.html) says, "Mednafen's Neo Geo Pocket emulation is based off of NeoPop.
The Neo Geo Pocket (Color) emulation in Mednafen is not very accurate in terms of low-level details; BIOS is HLE'd, CPU instruction timing is totally fubared, and some CPU instructions are likely emulated incorrectly. It's sufficient to play most of the commercially released games fairly well, but if you want to do NGP© homebrew development, you're better off at looking at something like MAME."

I know that Loïc likes NeoPop for its debugger features, so using it directly could be nice for that.

I think that MAME uses the Neo Geo Pocket core from MESS. If I am correct, that core was mainly developed by jdg (Judge is a member here https://forum.freeplaytech.com/member.ph...ile&uid=72) who also did the main emulation work on RACE and MHE. I think his would be the most accurate, but his cores don't get ported like NeoPop does. This is something that should be rectified. NeoPop is very easy to port to other platforms, but it is both inaccurate and slow.

I actually didn't mean to post here to discuss emulation. I started out wondering about "EmuHawk" and then got into all that detail.

I'm super happy that you have taken the time to build out this utility and tutorial for future Neo Geo Pocket homebrew developers, KeiDash. This has been a huge problem for the development community for many years. The lack of proper tools and the barriers of entry for people have kept the new developments to a minimum. I hope this helps to rectify that!
