Help! I just bought the gameboid and am trying to figure out how it works, what's tbhis gba bios they are talking about

It tells you to supply a gba_bios.bin. Google is your friend!

 

[akodiakbear86]

Why would you even post that? You are no help at all

 

[enkryptik]

actually it's more help than ya think. just google it and send to droid then navigate to it when gameboid asks.

 

[akodiakbear86]

Well yours is more help. What do you mean send it to droid idk how to do this stuff, this is my first smartphone

 

[enkryptik]

Connect to PC and mount SD card. Copy file over. Or if that gives you hell, install swiftp and FTP it to your SD card.

I did it by DLing it on the PC and putting it on the SD card with the ROMs.. when it asks, just point to it on the SD

Thank you for the real answers. That's what I'm looking for when I post a question in a forum, not some jackass telling me to google it.

He's not a jackass, he just doesn't want to be banned. gba_bios is kinda illegal.

 

[akodiakbear86]

well why the hell would they be selling the stuff in the marketplace then? that makes no sense at all

The gameboid program is not illegal Things you might decide to use it with are, but that's on you!

Yeah, the program itself isn't illegal, but gba_bios.bin, and roms, are both illegal. If you don't believe me/us, just look up any debate on legality of emulators/roms.

ok im not saying it isn't illegal, I was wondering how they are able to sell that in the marketplace. Is there a legal way to use the game then?

Well, the only way to legally use it is if you're just playing homebrew, not real games.
