Delta Emulator for iOS
Now that emulators are perfectly legal on the App Store, there’s only one obvious thing to do.
Delta Emulator is available here:

I am literally breathing heavily right now
Anyone remember if there’s any meaningful difference between the DS and DSi versions?
I think it was mainly just hardware differences
Just a few things to note:
1.) The touch keyboard is definitely playable but with noticeable input lag. Honestly, it’s been so long since I had my DS that I don’t remember what the original touch-screen experience felt like.
2.) Delta was designed for iPhone. It’s useable on iPad but it’s obviously not optimal.

What about Bte controllers? What would be good to pair with an iPad so you can play on the bigger screen ?
Holy shit I just realized something else: LSDJ. Hell yeah!
The portability comes with a trade-off though. On my laptop, I usually chain two instances of LSDJ, which you obviously can’t do here.
I do have trackers on my iPad, but oh boy... LSDJ is just my siren call
Has anyone used it with a controller or keyboard? I’m wondering how the lag is with that cos then I’ll just buy a controller if it’s decent
Not available in my region (Netherlands).
In the EU it will be available through altstore
just had some fun with this, however the audio gets stuck when using wireless earbuds. I wish there was a way to install the discontinued ids-10 on iphone. I bet it was fun too)
I'm porting a GB/GBC/GBA/NDS emulator wrapped into SwiftUI for Japanese (and soon other) language learning purposes, with stuff like realtime OCR of text on screen and vocab lookups.
Anyway while I'm at it I wonder if it'd be nice to have this embedded into an AUv3 too. I wonder what I could do to make it nicer as an instrument (or effect? are there?) in an AUv3 context. It could even be something like a sample player that works via load states and play/pause.
I can do native iOS but I'm planning to use the WASM version in a webview so that it's easier to put into an existing app and UI. I hope it's fast enough for all these interesting use cases.
It would be fun to try to add touch interactivity to some of these synth apps also.
That was their choice right? To minimize liability or something? Or does Apple force that for emulators..?
Yeah, as far as I know it was their choice. I’m not sure it’s anything to do with liability, it’s just altstore and this particular emulator are made by the same developer.
That sounds fun, I’m sure there’s a few homebrew carts that could be used this way, though is it not insanely complex wrapping an emulator into a plugin?
Available in the normal store for the uk
So how do you get cartridges for these?
Archive.org has loads
and I just bought a little emulator handheld... smh
There's a guy called Vimm who may have a Lair...
This emulator is great! I've finally ordered a controller for my phone!
Maybe not quite as exciting as Nintendo emulation but there’s a Commodore 64 emulator that has also been released this week:
https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/emu64-xl/id6483251916
Which one did you get? I got the Miyoo Mini Plus for my birthday last year. There’s still a lot to be said for a dedicated device I reckon.
My wish is for a Dreamcast emulation
However this is really cool
I connected my NES and SNES controller to play respective consoles and it works great
Good on delta!
Sorry I missed this, when were they made legal? I remember the scumm one
I’m in the uk. So the new eu thing altstire doesn’t apply. But this would be something different?
Got the rg35xx h in a massive sale. It's great I mostly wanted to play Pico 8 and all the new indie Gameboy games and it's awesome for that. It's becoming a bit overwhelming though. So much to tinker with!!!
Just the ability to have a limitless selection of indie micro games is fantastic.
Apple changed their App Store policy on emulators a couple of weeks ago. They are allowing them now so you can pick this up from the UK AppStore no problem. In the EU you need AltStore to get Delta but that’s just because they are made by the same dev and he wants people to use his store. Edit: Apparently it’s more complicated than that. There’s a really good overview of the emulator here with a bit more detail about the EU situation. Sounds like it’s something to do with the charges Apple wants to apply.
