Rockboy

gbl08ma:
I don't think that downloading ROMs of games you own would be out of law (at least under the Portuguese law). But this is only valid for the games you own their physical support, in this case, the cartridge.

Use at your own risk. Remember that while Rockbox and Rockboy are opensource, that doesn't make it legal to play pirated games (most GBC ROMs are not opensource!).

Chronon:
There are a couple of links at the bottom of the PluginRockboy page to pages with public domain and/or homebrew ROMs.*

*: I guess they technically aren't ROMs if they didn't get dumped from some sort of ROM but hopefully people know what I meant.

AlexP:
The legality or otherwise of ROMs is a non-trivial question - it differs from country to country, and I doubt it has been tested in many.  As a result, no discussion of where to obtain these ROMs is permitted on these forums.

Homebrew/those with a redistributable licence is obviously different.

Nobody:
I have a Ipod 5.5 Gen (Video), and was wondering if there was a special version of Rockbox that runs a faster Rockboy? Maybe a patch somewhere, or an older version of Rockbox?

It's pretty darn slow, and here I was thinking the Ipod Video would be one of the faster candidates for using Rockboy.

No.

The Video has among the slowest CPUs (second only to older ipods and the old archos players).  I would not have picked it for general purpose computing.
