Release notes:
Don’t let the version 0.0.5 fool you, this is a large update. Thanks to a large amount of help from NerveGas (NES.app author), we now have a much improved GUI and sound! Also some performance fixes were implemented via the default frameskip settings and some dynarec tweaks.
There’s still some work to be done in terms of compatibility/performance, but it’s rapidly improving. And thanks to NerveGas we now have a nice iPhone and iTouch GUI and sound is now outputted!

ZodTTD is writing history today. First he released the only existing and public Gameboy Advance emulator for iPhone and to put a little bit of topping at it, it’s the second emulator for foreign systems on iPhone – The first emulated system was the good old NES.

Things that still need work:
– Compatibility is lower than usual but many games are playable. This is being worked on as a high priority.
– Sound output is disabled, but it IS being emulated. So performance will only get better as this feature gets worked on.
– Auto frameskip might be off. Switch to manual frameskip if needed.
– GUI and instructions need a lot of work.
