Playing Sonic on iPhone with GBA emulator

[sonicblast19]

Dude,did you noticed something from playing emulators on iPhone?It's about Android phones aswell,how hard is to play ,for example Mario?It's impossible,why?Because there are no buttons.I can say that touchscreen gaming ruins gaming instead of inovating.The DS inovated 7 years ago,the PSVita I guess it'll take it a step further but the iPhone\Android fucked gaming.Games are so casual that I rahter do something else when I'm bored,like reading,which sucks giving that I've paid 400$ for that thing.

[thecosmiced]

how is it for a HACK(not saying i dont like it) but for the games on the store the controll pad is SHIT and for a HACK its perfect? I KNEW THEY WERE TOYING WITH US!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[avanty123piw]

[kickfliper4321]

@avanty123piw To fix that go to settings and turn on smooth scaling

[KKZReset11]

The emulator is epically slow

[alienfromhell]

LOL MOTOROLA DROID > IFAIL

[billywithtalent]

[Hyperstar96]

At least know what game you're playing before you make a video about it.

[imWeezyHD]

[treckoreborn]

@imWeezyHD nerd

[datkewldude45]

[rageman75]

some newer games are O.K.

[twanniex1]

wow lol, back then sonic was still awesome, the OLDER games rocks, the NEWER SUCK ASS XD

[sir0c0]

the original was the best all the kids missed it with there new 3d and sonic rush shit

[flimflabber777]

@sir0c0 its not the kids fault its your generations fault for making the 3d shit xD

[sir0c0]

@flimflabber777 agreed but i had the master system with sonic on it and the genesis and a game gear and they where the absolute best

[boface187]

cool an all.. but playable? not really. the phisical buttons on the droid make gaming easy and worth while.

[DarkbladeXYZ]

Wow.... you just showed us that you have a gba emulator on your iphone yet you won't respond to us when we ask how you do it.... jerk

[Minasodrom]

@DarkbladeXYZ google it you fag

[DarkbladeXYZ]

@Minasodrom I youtube it first then I google it... fagget

[MrKickyourbutt]

@DarkbladeXYZ You ever hear of Google?

[ShawnyBoyKrump]

@DarkbladeXYZ It's in fucking Cydia you fucking dumbass. If you don't know that by now you dont deserve an jailbroken iphone

[MrActiveX]

I DONT KNOW HOW TO JAILBREAK "

[sir0c0]

@MrActiveX search for spirit jailbreak in google sure yal find it

[zoidberg87]

Cooool! how did you do it !!? I wanna Gba on Iphone too!!!

[keybladekirby]

[uegow]

[piphus]

lol when people who have a hacked iphone/ipod say "oh that app isnt free anymore, or you cant download it anymore :(". YOU HAVE A HACKED SYSTEM, just go download that app/software free! even if it is off itunes store lmao

[Marthuiop]

[SmashCrazy]

@Marthuiop there's a free version...

[Marthuiop]

[maxc16]

is this app on cydia? I can't find it...

[ConsoleChallenger]

Yeah Its Called gpSPhone and you can get a rom source but unfortunately it takes a long time

[aosprite48]

look up zodttd repo on google

[aaaqqqquuuuaaaaman]

Hey how did you change the screen so the game took up the whole space? When I use the app it's just a tiny little section being used for the actual game. -_-;;

[genrealbean]

You Go to options and change the skin. There should be like 5 to pick from. Use 5.

[UnfoldedTreeLover]

im gettin an itouch for christmas i cant wait for a while i thot my mom might get me a fake 1 but i asked her if it was fake so she showed it to me and its not so yea i cant wait but i have to

[uberiballo]

i just hate to carry mp3 and phone. now i have 5800 music= fantastic but gaming or apps on it... meh but now im getting n900 and lets just hope it can run ps1 emulator fine ;)

[Multi1337Elite]

The app - store

[danielwcas]

where do i go to get that?

[aaaqqqquuuuaaaaman]

Jailbreak your phone using blackra1n (google). Install cydia and then youtube how to get cydia apps for free. Or pay six bucks, whatever.

[LulzBat]

Pretty cool

[spartanosia5]

this usda be my favorite game when it first came out for sega genesis....im not old btw lol im only 15

[herburner]

If you're 15, you weren't alive when this first came out for sega genesis youngin.

[spartanosia5]

i didnt mean to say when it first came out..however i did play the first 3d sonic game when it game out on sega dreamcast...but i still think this is better

[s2beta007]

you do realize this isnt the first sonic right..? this is sonic advance.

[spartanosia5]

yeah but its based heavily on the first one...close enough lol

[uberiballo]

be happy that he knows what game hes playing. there are really many kids who don't know that mario was first 8-bit 2-d game

[ToonLawliet]

But some of us 15 year olds do know about the series. When it was good, or in my language, or until the sonic stages in sonic adventure. Then the series got screwed a lot

[TheKosuko213]

@herburner im 15 and i love sonic the hedgehog nd im taking bout the very first sonic game

[BeanManIncorporated]

@herburner Yeah, man, I'm 13, and I love the originals and have since I was a little kid.

[OnlineSkill]

@herburner I'm 15 and I was playing the original sonic, us poor kids grew up with older games.

[theALNation]

@herburner dude this is for gameboy

[jachie123]

@herburner are you sure?? this is sonic rush or something. not the original sonic that was for genisis??

[HyperFoxIII]

1:25 sound in the background at the same time as th gate closing on Sonic

[mlfscr123]

I love how you can see the buttons on screen, yet see-through so you can still see the whole screen of the game.

This is amazing stuff!

[RikuJerrad]

..it's called transparency.. it was not invented yesterday

[spartanosia5]

lmao....thats kinda cold...

[atlantafalconsfan99]

does this also work for the 1st gen itouch?

[RuneMan226]

practically, playing any emulated game must be hard, considering that if you press the d pad and a button at the same time, you end up with it thinking you pushed the middle of the screen, unless you let go of the d pad before you push the button.

[trick6952]

not only that but some games are quite laggy and unenjoyable

[espeorb]

Believe it or not, that's not true. Whether or not it was on first-gen firmware, the multitouch functionality of the iPhone/iPod Touch OS 2.0 and later (which is about the time I got my iPod Touch) allows for pressing very different parts of the screen at the same time almost flawlessly - for instance, a D-pad and a main button.

However, one flaw in the multi-touch design is that no more than two places touched are recognized at once. Not that you need more for the GBA...

[benyboybob]

False, it can support a stupid amount; not sure exactly how many. But even TapTap Revenge has the user pressing 3 parts of the screen simultaneously...

[benyboybob]

False, iPhone is the first ever handheld device to support multiple touch so you can press all they keys at once if you wish without any problem :-)

[giggles628000000]

which emulator is this one, cause all the other ones ive seen for the iphone sucks ass

[sf2explus]

bullshit the screen is covered by the thumb whats the point

[RamenKingRoshi]

This is cool, but for the games that actually need the L and R buttons, having them on the face seems less convenient.

[espeorb]

For the people who say it doesn't run fast, the new 5.0.0 gpSPhone update makes it run near-perfect. Heck, most ROMs run that way now.

[nobleknight44]

yes it does silly!

[mrxdolliee]

My games lag... A lot!

Is it maybe that it just lags on the Ipod Touch?

[gcsjr123]

ipod domination!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[DriftDemonKing]

russian tv in background.

[rex22neo]

Sounds like teletoon with the minishow where a stick figure is controlled by hand just tormenting it.

[n1ghtshad0w]

where do u get the games for the gba emulator?

[dragon7118]

w w w (dot) 3roms (dot) c 0 m

[flanzashreddah]

just about every new apple product incorporates multitouch somehow, it's pretty cool.

[StuBoyUK]

pretty kewl how u can play sonic on there using the emulator.. i must get that, i love sonic from the days of sega game gear, woah thats too much info eh. anyway u aint a nerd, but a bright spark ! stay kewl

[niny322]

so in the future we wont need buttons 2 play games? damn..

[ANARCwillTheThrill69]

i need an ipod touch now!

[RegiMoep]

But you have to keep in mind that the iTouch doesn't support Multi-Touch. Meaning you can only press one button at once. At least that's as much as I got from reading through forums.

[Exbrolly2000]

All touch devices from apple are multi touch

and so is the iTouch(which is iPod Touch)

[RegiMoep]

I know that iTouch means iPod Touch, though I heard that this has no multi-touch, seems I'm wrong though.

[Exbrolly2000]

Think about it....How do you resize pages\pictures?

Yup, multitouch

[NisslMissl]

are you kidding me??

no multi touch

I've got the iPod Touch and as far as I've noticed you can zoom into pictures by pinching in and out

does that sound multi touch like to you?????

[RegiMoep]

So I was right after all Oo

[nayte23]

well when ur pinching how many fingers are u touching the screen with, 2 isnt it, hence multi touching

[generaldane]

the controls are fucking ridiculous

[Sonic6293]

a dream come true... u have to jailbreak, right?

[TundeakaTBO]

this is just my opinion but i believe this is the best game to play on the iPhone hands down. I've tried tons of apps, tons of games on several diffent emulators, and this is the best for me. whether you have 5 mins to kill or 30 minutes to use, this game is perfect whne using the save feature.. A+++

[kevchangu]

its amazing

[sumerjatt]

where can i get the gba emulator

[ApookPS3]

You can play Sonic on the iPod video but not as detailed.

[thehellsyeah123]

the is only one game i would want SUPER MARIO

[LittleEmoBoy001]

Why is there no sound once the game play begins?

[yilei92]

hmm mine lags like crap anyone know how to not make it lag?

[taylord135]

just a question 1se the emulator and games are on your ipod do you need inbternet to play it

[orinationx3]

O_O

The intelligence of your question amazes me!

[kikaimaster]

isn't that sims 2 in the background?

[SkylineR034]

unlike you i accurally get called on my mob and dont use my mob for fken games.

[jamaicob]

yeah you ca get phoned on an iphone and im sure the only reason your slagging this off is cause you cant get one

[qwertyuiop1035]

LOL PWNED

[SkylineR034]

Ye u srs? Ue just a fagget who would play that sht on the train just because ur a fucking asian nerd

[jamaicob]

im not asian thats disgusting, but i am a nerd

and i aint been on a train in years. i go by plane or car

[HazzaP123]

Calling someone a nerd when you say "srs"

LMAO

[SkylineR034]

lol, so because i say srs im a nerd?

[Exbrolly2000]

[SkylineR034]

[Exbrolly2000]

Epic fail much? nerd

[Ellio123]

Lol, epic fail.

[everyoneloveskayla]

can it save?

[brumanima]

where to download the emulator??

[Profixi0n]

you aint gonna tell us the fucking source ?

0 stars for you

[voxmodder]

hah, Ever heard of google? 3 seconds of my life got me a download link. Think before you fucking post

[digitaltrav]

sounded awful, i guess thats why you disabled the sound for the gameplay demo.

shame it's too slow to play GBA games, it would've been pretty nifty.

[killervalonz]

Its an emulator that isnt build good enough yet.. the iPhone shouldnt be the problem

[pauly1996]

ding dong lol awnser the door

[Eparabola]

should i jailbreak my phone? i wouldn't mind playing some street fighter 2 on the train to work but i don't want to violate the warranty either

[Grog2662g]

If you know what you're doing the warranty is irrelevant because you can just restore it to factory firmware before bringing it into the store and they'd never be the wiser.

[qwertyuiop1035]

true dat

[Machsonic]

That's ballin', I had jailbroken my iPod Touch, but I restored it cause I wanted my warranty back.

[CharlieWThompson]

U Jailbroke Your Iphone

U GAY!!!

HAHAHAHAHA

Wait For It To Mess Up Then You'll Be rying With Your No Warranty Shizznik!

AHAHAHAHAHA

[vanstrummer99]

Right, cause only 2Million people have hacked iphones out there. What a Douche you are Charlie! You're obviously big on the scene and the community. Have fun with your Razr dude, on your own network. I'm sure your provider loves putting it in your mouth for $9.99 for mini golf!

[CharlieWThompson]

It's Actually $1.99 For Mini Golf And A Warranty Costs More Than That But Wait....

I STILL HAVE MINE

[Icesniper32]

oh yeah! this is amazing

[hkn453]

twinkle twinkle little star what I wonder is a cat

[Chaallocco]

Beast...

[kiik1012]

how do you play so good?

[HOTdominicanguy]

WOW! thats awesome

[vastenmielinen]

nice emu !

[thereefour777]

not worth voiding your warranty for this get a psp and do it its worth it on the psp bigger screen

[titchytaylor]

It is, however, worth waiting until July 11th and getting the amazing SDK Games... Even though this is already great... Better to have loved the game and lost the warranty then to have never loved at all

[kiik1012]

but the psp can't call people

[thereefour777]

so fucking what use a regular fuckign phone duh

[kiik1012]

what the hell are you saying thereefour777?

[HayLow3fan]

have you learnd to use the reaply button on the right of the comment?

[kiik1012]

have you learned to spell?

[thereefour777]

fuck it dont matter

[kiik1012]

ok?

[Floreum]

I heard Doodlez on TV :P

[XxgamerdavexX]

hard controles but awsome

[jimmyBrannon]

man your pretty good

[baadnewz101]

what does jailbreak mean?

[WIIRULESMAN]

It's when you remove the lock the iphone has to stop it from using 3rd party applications, so you can put all sorts of stuff on it, like this gba emulator. It's not illegal, but it voids your warrenty, so if your iphone breaks, Apple isn't going to fix it for you.

[jayhawksrock1]

so basically it's fun untill you break it then your screwed? lol

[WIIRULESMAN]

Unless you know how to fix it. ;)

[pinkstarchicken]

yup, if its software wise, its pretty easy to fix, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons, the iphone will restart, keep holding, dont let go, a connect to itunes thing will pop up, plug it in and restore it, and your back to new!

[MadGrandpa]

jailbreak means hack for ipod touch or iphone.

[effected51]

Controls look surprisingly well. I wonder how SNES games would play..

[zeferovit]

good game

[JaTHlete2134]

Can someone tell me when i jailbreak my ipod touch, and put emulators and roms on it, how much memory do i get to use for it?

[ernestryles]

depends... default for apps and stuff on touch or iphone is 100 mbs. roms can be as large as 16 mb. if u install bosstool and move stuff in order it says apps and games will be on the big part of the drive which is all of ur space not taen up by media

[parepala]

is your iphone jailbroken where did you get that game??

[nadertom]

does the speaker works with out the headphones ??

[claudiomarioto]

PLEASE SEND SOURCES!!!

[vert98]

Who that watching bernard in background, or whatever?

[jizz123456789]

looks laggy

[redstarstudios]

goto 1:40, its not laggy

[W1ldPr0duct10ns]

dude, please help.

i cant save on mine.

its pissing me off.

what should i do?

[iliketurtals]

HOW!!!!!!!!!

[moovuly]

Can't you play mp3 music and run this at the same time?

[BryanCashman]

yes it is uber cool

[blinkingLEDs]

Looks bad. wtf is up with the sound?

[bpeterdude316]

thats what the iphone was made for !!!!

[unions8]

I have played several games on PDA under many emulators, and i must say, it sucks much more with the terrible 4-way pad and buttons spreaded everywhere through the device. This iPhone interface seems much better to me. I wonder, if there is still way how to improve the sound handling. Don't forget, the emulators on PDA has been developed for years in opposite to the iPhone ones, which are just few months old ;-)

[jimmarn]

That's cool... i'm gonna buy a iPhone wich is the best phone ever! man never seen anything like i.. so glad i didnt buy the sidekick :P

[stevetran14]

DOES IT LAG ABIT?

[mikeeey1337]

i knew that eventually there would be some emulators for the iphone, but as i had already guessed, it would suck cuz you needed to either waste or cover screen space to play. that's the disadvantage to not having buttons. get a pocket pc! =) check my videos!

[leodarkmetalone]

it's much much better on my nokia n95 with sound works very smoothly!!

[pilalovesyou]

мне больше нравятся другие кнопки! что поменьше!

ну ты обречен теперь на вечные вопросы..лол)

[bllaad]

blues clues in the background!! lol lol lol lol!!

[belcherjermaine]

where did you get the emulator and rom?

[ihaterub]

because sound is poor and i turned it off

[ygrowup]

why is there no sound in the game?

[jm87p]

can u show how to put the games

[ihaterub]

that iPhone version is 1.1.1

[dejan654]

osm

[jch15223]

that gpsphone version 1.1.2
