How to Play ROMs on iPhone (4 Steps)


Launch Cydia and add the following 'Repository': 'http://thebigboss.org". To add a repository, launch 'Cydia' and click on 'Manage' then 'Sources.' On that screen, click 'Edit' (top right screen) and then 'Add' (top left). Let the application reload after it adds the source.
Click on 'Sections' in Cydia and look for 'Emulators.' Tap on that and you will see emulators for the original Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance and Sega Genesis. The iPhone will not handle any other ROMs because of graphical issues. Install the emulator of your choice and let it download and install.
Connect the iPhone to the computer and close out of iTunes if it is set to pop up. Download the free program iPhone Browser (see Resources below). This will allow you to see all the hidden files on your iPhone. Launch this application after it installs and use it to navigate to /private/var/root/Media/ROMs/. Copy any ROMs you have downloaded (there is a site to download ROMs in the Resources section) to this location under whatever folder the ROM is for. If it is a Gameboy Advance ROM, you will copy it to the folder 'Gameboy Advance Roms.'
Disconnect your iPhone and launch your emulator application. If you put the ROMs in the correct folder, it will detect them and you can play them. Some of the emulators will even allow you to play the game with the iPhone in landscape (sideways) mode.
