Overview: igpSP

• igpSP is a port of the Game Boy Advance emulator gpSP to iPodLinux.
• gpSP is a highly optimized emulator, full speed emulator originally written for the PSP and later ported to the GP2X (and even later to the iPhone).
• The GP2X version makes use of an ARM dynamic recompiler (dyna-rec), allowing for realtime speeds.
• The GP2X version was first ported to iPodLinux by Zaphod, then later improved by zacaj.
• The latest igpSP version is a proper re-port by Keripo and is very stable and relatively fast. It is able to achieve emulation speeds between 50-80%.
• The ZeroSlackr version has a few path changes for ZS-friendliness. For more information, see:

Usage:

• Dump your own 'gba_bios.bin' file and place it in the "Data" directory. For information on how to do that, see the "igpSP ReadMe from Keripo.txt" in "Misc/Docs.tar.gz" archive.
• FastLaunch through "Emulators > igpSP > FastLaunch" to start igpSP or use "Emulators > igpSP > Roms" to directly select a rom.
• Use the "Emulators > igpSP > Sound" toggle to chose which build (no-sound or with-sound) to use. Off is recommended.
• Files with a ".gba" extension have their default action set to igpSP.
• Rom files should be placed in the "Roms" folder. Public domain rom files can be optained through various internet websites while commercial rom files should be dumped from real GBA game cartriages (downloading commercial roms that you do not own is ILLEGAL). Public domain roms can be found here: http://www.pdroms.de/files/gameboyadvance/ For instructions on dumping your own ROMs, see "igpSP ReadMe from Keripo.txt" in "Misc/Docs.tar.gz" archive.
