GameBoy Advance Emulator for Mobile Platforms
Vilímek, Hynek ; Růžička, Richard (referee) ; Šimek, Václav (advisor)
The GameBoy Advance console was released by Nintendo in 2001 and it has experienced phenomenal success during its existence. It used to control the majority of the market at one time and partly due to this it has become synonymous with portable gaming consoles. This popularity was gained especially thanks to the games developed for it. They have become so popular that even today there is a demand for them. These games, however, are not played on the original consoles but on today's mobile devices. And since current mobile devices are technologically very different from the console, it is necessary to run these games via an emulator.

"Some trees flourish, others die?": Opportunities and Problems of the Video game Canon
BRIXÍ, Václav
The paper attempts to enter current discussions related to the perception of video games as art. The thesis will focus primarily on the emergence of the video game canon, and will trace the evolution of this entertainment industry towards an increasingly institutionalised reception and evaluation of video games. This development will be examined both in academic context, with attention paid, for example, to the emergence of university departments and scholarly monographs on the history of video games. At the same time, the author will focus on non-academic strategies of value creation, such as the operation of the The Game Awards event, or the efforts to establish a normative genre-based system of video game creation and evaluation by game developers, journalists, and emerging critics. Methodologically, the thesis will draw on the theory of the canon of other arts, with particular attention to the development of the film canon as an example of the establishment of a new art and its institutionalization during the 20th century.
