KiGB is the most accurate and free portable emulator for Gameboy, Gameboy Color and Super Gameboy for Windows, Linux and MS-DOS. A Mac OS port is done by Richard Bannister, however it is less featured than the Windows version. The latest release is v2.05 (2008-6-11).
4x4 World Trophy, Carmageddon, Color Panel Demo and multicart games among others are first emulated perfectly in KiGB.
Besides compatibility, KiGB is the only one that can allow you to play most 2-player games over a TCP/IP network. Others can only allow you to play on the same PC. Other special features (click here for a full list) are:
In SGB mode, up to 4 players can be supported
Support of the game "Gameboy Camera" (without the camera functions)
Per-game configuration such that each game can have its own custom palettes (GB only), key mapping, etc.
Support Gameboy Printer.
Support boot ROM for GB.
Simulate boot ROM for GBC.
Support an experimental graphics effect- shadow.
