    Wanna play arcade games ?

    GameBoy Emulators

    1. Download these files from http://www.htcwizardweb.net/node/323

     fmodce.zip

     PocketGBA.zip

    There are many ROMS are available on the web. http://www.get-your-rom.com/gbaroms.php

    2. From the decompressed fmodce.zip file, Copy files fmodce.dll and fmodce.lib to your \Windows directory on your wizard.

    3. Create a folder on your device (\Program Files\GameBoyAdvance) and from the decompressed PocketGBA.zip file copy all files gsgetfile.dll, PocketGBA.cfg, PocketGBA.exe to this folder you’ve created.

    4. Create a folder on your device (\My Documents\My Games\GameBoyAdvance) and from the decompressed game.zip file copy all files to this directory.

    5. Navigate to where you copied PocketGBA.exe to (From Step 3) and execute. The interface will load up, now with your stylus touch the “load” icon.

    6. Navigate to where you saved the game ROM to (From Step 4). Click Ok in upper right hand corner Now click the “Run” icon on the emulator’s interface. Game will Load! Your wizard should display something that looks like this

    7. This is just an extra tip that I’ve done to simplify navigating to the GameBoy emulator executable through your file browser, just simply create a short cut to GameBoy Advance and put it in your “\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Games\” folder and your GameBoy Advance emulator will now show up there from now on.
