    I just wonder how they are being allowed to do this? I am reluctant as well, mainly because it seems to good to be true... I mean how many people walk around with legal roms that they can use?

    Of course it's technically illegal. Same for Gridlee (Mame). Don't remember people going in about that. We've got no rights to use those games but we do. People also drive 1 km over the speed limit that's also illegal. Do you have no illegal mp3s?

    I mean I honestly wouldnt worry. If you honestly are worried just simply don't install

    I only drive the posted limit or walk :).

    I didn't know there was any other emulators iOS capable.

    I'm not throwing off on anyone using or saying that I won't, just curious about more info.. I mean other than site traffic, how is this benefitting the dev?

    I'm thinking it's a NSA ploy :)

    Downloaded it. Downloaded Super Mario 2 and 3, Zelda - The Minish Cap, and Grand Theft Auto Advance. Tried Super Mario 3 and there were some horrible noises coming out of my iPad. As far as games on the iPad go Mikey Shorts is way better than this. Deleted.

    Been following Riley's blog since he released the first gba4ios and have been looking forward to this so much! With cheat codes,controller support and a better rom comparability as well as GBC support this is a must for retro fans!Pokemon emerald is getting smashed again!

    Check out wario world twisted. I had tried it on the older version of the emulator, it didn't work.

    This installed fine for me, except for the Dropbox sync, however, what is recommended for zip files? Do I have to unzip on my computer
    then transfer via iTunes?

    You should set our iOS date to yesterday and then try again.

    What a horrible, horrible analogy. You're comparing Apple where the device is made in China, to some unknown/bootleg/illegal operation by some guy based in China.

    It didn't install for me, and I couldn't x out of it to abort the download, so I rebooted. It must be doing something at a low level because now I can't start up again (shows a blue screen, then the apple logo, then the blue screen, then the apple logo).

    I've put my iPhone into recovery mode and will restore from a backup. Forget this crap, I will play GBA games on something else.
