Play gameboy games on your iPhone/iPod Touch with Gameboy4iPhone v1.7.0
Chris Eissens
Gameboy4iPhone has been released to the general public. Yesterday i wrote about version 1.5.0 being released via Cydia.
Today ZODTTD has released yet another update version 1.7.0 to the general public via our Installer.
I must say, i’ve played gameboy4iphone for quite some time now, and it simply rocks !!
The graphics are perfect, no lagging at all, even the sound is now almost perfect !!
I’ll show you how.
1) To install go to the games section in your installer. And chose the Gameboy4iPhone v1.7.0 from ZODTTD.com
i’ll add these screens when they are available in installer.
2) After you have installed the app, upload upload a ROM to /var/(mobile or root depending on firmware)/Media/ROMs/GAMEBOY/.
Roms can be found here .
Please make sure you own the original games !!!!
Upload the roms + the bios via WinSCP or FUGU for mac.
For a howto upload + download files on your iPhone or iPod touch, go here .
2) Let’s run the app after installation. You will see a Splash-screen, just click ok here.
For this example i used Super Mario Bros deluxe and our favorite original Tetris .
The game works perfectly with the default settings, but you can always tweak some options in the settings page. If you want you can always save your game, so you can start again where you left off.
You can also play in landscape mode, but as you’re fingers will be covering half of the screen, it’s better to play in portrait mode. But this is up to you :)
Enjoy

Hi, Multinova,
I tried to install the gameboy4iphone. Typed the source in the ‘Sources’, but couldn’t find gameboy4iphone app in the installer. I did find the other app’s by zodttd.
Then I did some search: seems gameboy4iphone is only available for beta-testers of zodttd because it is still a beta version…
