This is a precise guide on how to play game boy advanced games on your android device. This isn't a new thing, but it is unknown to many, which is why I'm presenting it. This is a simple guide to play any gba games from pokemon to zelda on your phone with ease. The controls are alike and the nostalgic feeling is amazing.
What you will need to download for this (Note: All these things can be downloaded from the Play Store):
File Manager of any sort (You may already have one built in)
4Shared (Not necessary, but makes things easier)
My Boy! (The gameboy emulator) [If you want the full version for free, hold off on downloading for now]
Now that you have all these things downloaded, you should be able to play the emulator.
You can't play an emulator without games. So this is the site where you should download the games from: http://coolrom.com/roms/gba/
From there, you download the games you want and extract them with your file manager.
After you've done that, open up My Boy and scroll down until you see the game you've downloaded.
Example of where it should be if you extracted properly:
/mnt/sdcard
or
/mnt/sdcard/Download
After opening your rom, you're now able to play the game.
If you have any questions regarding this, feel free to reply to this thread.
Extras:
Disclaimer: You may come across infected files if done improperly, so pay attention.
If you want the full version of this game, open up the 4Shared you downloaded from the play store. Sign in and search for My Boy. A list of APK's should show. This is the important part: You want to look for the latest updated APK, which for now is 1.5. After downloading, you want to install it and you should have the full version for free.
