If you want to emulate the games, pretty much any PC emulator is a thousand better than this.

If you want to play in public, any GBA is better than this.

Seriously, there is no reason why to even bother with phone emulators.

cant be assed to play normal speed during a, say, five minute bus ride. hardly enough to get through route 1 in that time. but no problem getting three badges and a third starter evo like that. im exaggerating of course, but you get the idea.

Besides maybe the newest Nexus models but even they would experience major lags and constant blackscreens.

DraStic can run DS games pretty decently, even on low-end phones. They built it from the ground up, instead of just porting an existing emulator.

The absolute easiest way is just looking it up on Google.
Searching for [name of the app].apk will already give you hundreds of sites where you can download it.

Alternatively just use the filesharing site of your choice or TPB.

After that, install ES File Explorer normally through the market, search for the .apk on your phone and simply install it.

They're okay if I just feel like playing casually, but I much prefer having the real game and being able to trade. It's really only useful if you don't have a system or game. I like it a lot only because I got my friend to play FR and Emerald, since he's only played SS, Black, and White 2. He got way more into the games after he played them.

Emulating Pokemon on a smartphone is fucking fantastic. I just played through Fire Red and Emerald on my S3. You just have to change the on-screen controls so they don't suck so much.

Shrink the "screen" a little and make the buttons bigger, but not so big that they overlap with the screen. "My Boy!" for Android even lets you add a fast-forward and screenshot button right to the main interface. Its lovely.

I'm in the process of transferring my emulated bros to a Platinum ROM via Desmume and Pal Park so that I can trade them to my retail carts.

Pretty sure it's SacredGold. Just look up whoever did BlazeBlack and VoltWhite, it's the same person.
And contributing to the discussion, I've been playing FireRed Omega on my Android for a few weeks, and I quite like it. I would never bring my 3DS out in public, but if I'm on the bus or on break at work and I just want to do a bit of grinding, I can pretend to be a genwunner hipster playing the remake of the best game on my phone because lol nostalgia. When actually I'm enjoying training a Jynx for the first time in my life and eagerly anticipating sending the shiny Oddish I found totally legitimately to my Black 2 and eventually into Y.

It depends on the rom, what the rom is on, and the game. I don't think you can on a phone. On a computer, though, you can get on the GTS, and there's link cables that you can use to connect a computer to a GameBoy, I think.

How is a PC emulator any better than on a phone?

For me, playing on my phone is a thousand times easier than playing on a GBA in public. I always have my phone with me, and I can have all the game I want to play right there. I don't have to bring ANOTHER device to shove in my pocket or any game cartridges.

Why people are against phone emulators at all makes no sense to me
