RockBoy game compatibility list/playability? (create a wiki out of this?)

[r00tb33r]

After searching the forum for about 10 mins I gave up trying to figure out what games actually work, and which ones are playable to the point of being fun.
So I would like people to post their experience with the plugin and what has worked for them and how well...  Perhaps this can be used to make a compatibility wiki.

...
I'm using a Gigabeat F if that matters.

Since it's entirely subjective, I don't think there's any reasonable way to get objectively useful information out of this.

Aww, comeon.

I'm sorry, pleading doesn't change the fact that some people think Mario is playable, and some don't. Even if you do ask only people with the same player, it doesn't mean there will be anything resembling a consistent opinion.

You really think that the humankind is that hopeless?  I always criticized, but I never thought it was that bad...

Playable? how do you define that?

[froggyman]

i have never found any that dont work, so i would even have an idea on where you would start such a wiki.

As to what games are good, that sort of thing doesn't belong here

[r00tb33r]

I'll start then...

 Game                      | Status
----------------------------------------------------
Super Mario Bros. Deluxe   | All Good, no problems
Wario Land ][              | All Good, no problems

I disagree. Mario Deluxe runs quite slowly and hard to play on several of the players, and the button map on the Gigabeat is not ideal for any action game creating problems for most of them.

the pokemon series is quite playable. From my experience, most sidescrollers are quite laggy, and the more advanced ones are simply unplayable. The only real way to replicate the gameplay is, effectively, to buy a gameboy.

Do we mean playable as in doesn't crash or speed wise?

I've had no problems with any ROMS, except speed; so really, I guess one could say nothing is compatible or everything is compatible. 

Isn't RockBoy just a port of some other emu? Maybe there will be a list for the original project.

Or use a gigabeat with its speed

but the controlls for that target is quite unfavorable to my understanding

I don't know about the Gigabeat F/X, but I found the S to have the best-suited buttons for Rockboy out of the players I've owned (Gigabeat S, iPod Video, Sansa e200).
