I posted before about the easiest way to add NES ROMs to your iPhone. Well now there is a much easier way. The best part about it is that you don't have to SSH into the phone to install them.
It is totally easy.
1. Go to settings, general, auto-lock, and set it to never
2. Open installer
3. Install "NES" (version 2.0.5-1)
4. Go to sources, edit, add - http://123locker.com, refresh sources
5. Go back to games, install "NES Roms" (version 1.20)
6. Start playing
Once the NES Roms package is installed, it gives you about 50 of the most popular Nintendo games that were made. Including Super Mario Bros, Tetris, Zelda, Contra, Mega Man, etc.
Now are they playable?
Yes. This version seems to be a lot more playable than the last version I had on my iPhone. I ended up uninstalling the NES and the roms from my iPhone because the controls were terrible and it didn't make for a fun game.
How can you tell?
Open up Contra or Punchout, if you can play either one without too much difficulty, you can tell the controls are better than before. Contra is a tough game to begin with but was absolutely impossible on the previous NES emulator version. Now you at least stand a chance.
I think I am going to keep these on my iPhone. There is always times where you have nothing to do and need to pass the time (like when you are at work). This is when I'm going to play these. The logo on the homescreen button also looks kinda cool. From my experience on the iPhone, this is one of the few 3rd party apps that I actually like.
Installing these through SSH seems like a joke now since this is so easy.

Thanks for this! Really works! Glad I found your guide. Amazing job well done!
Yeah, it's pretty cool. The controls look so cool too. My favorite games are punchout and lemmings.
