Not really the dev's fault.

The way that GBA4iOS is being updated doesn't work for iOS 6 and below.

iOS 6 and below devices also weren't cut out for some of the new features.

Well, I suppose I'll have to stick to GBA.emu, which, might I add, sucks in the controller customization and cheat code department?  

So are there any downsides to upgrading my iPad 2 to iOS7?  

Nope

Well...

If you're jailbroken you can upgrade to iOS 7,

Get GBA4iOS,

And then re-jailbreak.

I'm good 5hift x3 I got iPod 5 with iOS7. This is gonna be epic.  

Still under heavy debate on what I plan to do once I get this...

Before my old save files were corrupted I had a pretty damned good Pokemon emerald team.

Do I want to cheat them back in?

Or earn them back legit...

You don't even need touch controls.

GBA4iOS 2.0 is MFi Controller compatible.

If you're jailbroken you can also get the tweak that allows you to play games using a PS3 controller.



Or you can just get GBA4iOS for free without going through all this trouble.

No buying, cleaning, or re-shelling necessary.



I remember playing MegaMan on the older version of GBA4iOS.

Wasn't very hard at all.

Maybe you just aren't accustomed to touch controls.

MegaMan and Bass?
The game is hard, but it doesn't need LR.
MegaMan Zero does.
If you don't use dash on the R button, you're a weird ****.

Don't. Mine's 5.1.1, keep it old.  

Dusty, just stick to an older version. Jailbreak your device, and download an emulator from there. Plus, people are bound to upload GBA4IOS 2.0 to Cydia.

Please stop using emulators.

First off, it's not like a computer where you have a controller.
Secondly, LR buttons? Horrible placement.

Just buy a GBA SP.
If you have the money, get the AGS-101 with a brighter screen.
SP is fairly cheap, I got a dirty ass one from craigslist, and about 6 games, 5 were Pokemon ;), and I ordered a newly made shell on eBay for $5, re shelled. Ended up $30 for 6 games, a working system, and a $120 profit.

I've got 3 Gameboys (backlit, non-backlit, original horizontal) and I still use an emulator. Why? Because I like having all my things on my phone without carrying my Gameboy in my bag (no space) and I can't play Liquid Crystal or any other fan made games without a flash cart.

I'm pretty sure that won't work.

First of all, GBA4iOS runs on certain iOS 7 changes.

Second of all, it probably won't show up on Cydia because there won't be any point.

It's a web app.

Jailbroken and non jailbroken devices can all download.

Cydia is a community thing. I could upload GBA4IOS 2.0 on there with my own source. Anyone could.
And well, I've found quite a few iOS tweaks and apps that work on an iOS 6 device, so there's a possibility it will work almost perfectly.
