Once again, convinced that the immortal classics. Just the day before yesterday I was telling you about webNES - Web emulator of classic NES games (NES), which allows you to run our favorite ROMs on iPhone without jailbreaking. Today we have another good news for fans of old school - updated GBA4iOS 2.0. This emulator, as webNES, does not require jailbreaking and allows you to run games on the GBA-devices with the official firmware. Now is a good time to break away from the boring Flappy Bird and play good old Legend of Zelda, Pokemon and Super Mario World. How to do it, as well as more details about the GBA4iOS, I want to tell you in this article.

Actually, GBA4iOS - this is not a new project - he was already well known among fans of emulation and zarekomendovl himself on iOS 6 with a good hand. Updated GBA4iOS 2.0 has a new interface in iOS 7 style and looks amazing. In addition to the visual component, the update also touched upon and functional parts - emulator got built-in mini-browser that allows you to download ROMs directly. Also, you can connect your Dropbox account to GBA4iOS, to have easy access to all your romsety. However, at the moment, this feature is still in testing stage and available to a limited number of users (I unfortunately did not work).
A key feature of GBA4iOS is backward compatible with older ROMs, with the classic Gameboy, Gameboy Pocket and Gameboy Color. It's pretty cool, because as they came out on a huge amount of good games, like Pokémon Blue or Legend of Zelda. Old games are not so perfect graphically, yet to play them much more interesting than the modern, especially given the number of pleasant memories associated with the time when we played them for the first time.
As with all major simulators, GBA4iOS can work with the cheat codes and cheats supports 5 different formats. Moreover, it is possible to use the automatic control of cheat in games using the Master Codes. Cheaters bad, but if fighting instincts dulled for 20 years - can afford a little pozhulnichat. Also, of course, you can save whenever you want (there are sales of auto-save).
Another nice feature in GBA4iOS - is to support the design of the controller, you can modify the appearance of the buttons. For example, you can set the skin with Mario or Luigi, when you were playing Super Mario Bros. Already available are several free skins on the site GBA4iOSkins. In the future, we can expect an even greater number of different topics, because the developer has opened the possibility of the creation of third-party designers.
Since February 19, GBA4iOS 2.0 is now available as a free download from the official site. Let me remind you that his work does not require a jailbreak (Cydia for release is not planned) and play classic hits on your iPhone can now be anyone. And all this - thanks to enthusiasts and Riley Testu Alyssa Surowiec, which have created GBA4iOS, for which we are sending them well-rays.
