I can also highly recommend the PyBoy[0] project for Game Boy emulation. It is written in Python, has an accompanying report for documentation, and is still being developed.
It provides an interesting basis for student projects to work on, such as machine learning on games, rewinding time and replaying (great for machine learning), adding the sound-subsystem, link-cable, and much, much more.
