Gambatte works, you can grab it here:
http://maemobox.org/dblank/gambatte.zip

unzip and run from command line like this:
gambatte_sdl -i enter f4 f7 f8 up down left right -s 2 -r 44100 file.gb

key mappings:
dpad center = start
menu button = select
- = B
+ = A
with up/down/left/right as normal

Someone who isn't me should make a frontend :)

I'd be happy to do such a thing, once I get my N800. Unfortunately, that means not until Christmas.

can xmame be set to work as the frontend?

I'd love to do the frontend, but I don't have the time.

If anyone is interested in doing it, uktube is really easy to convert to work for that. (just modify it to list all .gb files instead of .flv files and make the view video button to execute the aforementioned command instead of mplayer command. Then just modify the texts, drop unnecessary buttons and that's it. Should take no more than few hours if even that.

is gambatte running in full speed? (or close to)?

Oh, and please make it so that dpad center doesn't do anything. Believe me n810 dpad middle is best served as a non-action button.

HOLY CRAP *dies*

Gambatte IS AMAZING!

Three time the size at a decent speed!

Great job dblank! Thank you!

Hmm i can't get any ROM to work. (I just get a white square in the upper left and nothing happens) Can anyone send me a ROM that does work ?

Gambatte is a GB/GBC emulator, no GBA.

Ahhhhh :) Ok works great now. All that's missing is onscreen buttons, a bigger screen and savegames :)

I think it could run faster, some games seemed pretty slow, and it didn't try to use the whole CPU.

I'm no developer, maybe someone could take a look at the code and tweak it a bit for the tablets.

Key mapping can easily be changed, just use something else on the command line instead of "enter", f6 is probably your best bet if you still want a start button.

You could change -s 2 to -s 3 for 3x scaling, and add -f for fullscreen, this is at the expense of speed though.

It supports normal saving, just no save states yet.

Hopefully a proper developer will improve the code for our tablets :)
