If that's true, then I'll be very, very happy. Just remembering those great gameboy games...

I too want this so bad. I have so many Gameboy games I own that I'd like to play. Normally, when I need some entertainment, I'll bring my DS, H10, or portable DVD player, but I can't play GB games on any of those....yet.



Too bad DS can only play GBA games....

It should work on the 20gb, not the 5/6gb models, I *think*. Instructions for using it should be in the manual, if not, the Rockbox Wiki PluginRockboy page has it.

It doesn't seem to work on anything... I was talking in the IRC room a while ago, and people said the code needs to be added for the screen to be downsized because even the 20 GB screen is smaller than the gameboy screen...

Oh, right, it doesn't work on the X5, so of course it wouldn't work on the 20gb yet. Sorry, my first thought was "The H120 is a the right size screen, and it works there" but I forgot that it still needs to be adjusted for the color nature of the screen as well.

Really, Rockboy is one of the harder plugins to adjust for a new target.

Well, the 5Gb has a smaller screen, so a lot of things would be completely obliterated on any gameboy games anyway. Just try reading any text in Doom (The messages up the top).

the H10 have a square screen, (almost) just like the gameboy color (160*140)

I think Rockboy sounds better than it actually is. I downloaded a couple of roms and seldom play them.

The gameboy color screen was 160x144, and the H10 5gb/6gb is 128x128, which would probably end up looking quite distorted.

Yeah, even if you kept it at it's original aspect ratio, it would look even worse.
Oke (Kind of alright) example is running anything in ZXbox. You can't read anything and unless the game is fully graphical, you have no hope.
