Chip8 Games

How can I play  chip8 games with rockbox?  I put .ch8 files on it and opened them.  It had the game, but I couldn't do anything.  Is there something I'm missing?

EDIT -
I have an 80gb ipod video if that helps

LambdaCalculus:
Read the wiki page for more information:

Depending on what device you're using, the controls may be severely limited. The Chip8 games originally used a hexadecimal keypad (0-9, A-F) for control, so some games may have to be tweaked so all required buttons are within the available buttons on your device.

reshter:
so most won't run too well on an iPod Video, right?

LambdaCalculus:
No, they run perfectly fine. It's the control scheme that's really bad on the iPods.

reshter:
Right, that's what I meant.  Do any actually have good controls?  I'd really like to have free games on my iPod, but it isn't really gonna work if the controls suck.

I heard about Rockboy.  I did some searches and found nothing.  Where can I get it, or is it  already installed like chip8?  I just put .gb games on my iPod?
