REAL Emulation on iPhone! Delta on App Store

Ойындар

After 15+ years of waiting, Apple is now allowing retro game emulators on their App Store, and after a few crash-and-burn releases, we have the first legitimate emulator app on the store. Today we're going to talk about Delta, show you how to set it up, and then highlight all of its many features (and a couple shortcomings, too).

    True. But there is a reason why I still use the Vita, Switch and Steam Deck. All have different applications. For example, there is something about playing PSP and Vita games as intended, so the Vita is still great for playing said games. I reckon Delta would be nice to have to installed on the phone. Personally speaking, it won’t be often that I take other handhelds with me.

Something like this could have saved me a hundred $ or so, so I'm glad it's now an option. I'm kinda glad it wasn't back then though because your channel is very entertaining and informative and helped me a lot when I got a Steam Deck.

    IOS is garbo. If you use Android or PC and you move to IOS, you'll find that in IOS, nothing is done logically, there is only one way to do any particular action, AND you're paying extra for that privilege. The only thing Apple has going for it, is that while using IOS, you'll never learn the skills to use a real OS, and so you'll think IOS is easier. It's not, it's more basic, and if you have skills with other devices, I don't see why you'd move to IOS. Plus, Apple is the worst company for planned obsolescence.

Was shocked how awful and unintuitive their file browser (can barely call it one) is. Biggest thing iOS has going for it are the proprietary services Apple gatekeeps, the fact that a lot of apps get updated on iOS first and run better, and the battery life is generally better (but it's still 1 day, you're not getting anything crazy) but you never feel like you truly own your device and have the same level of control you do even on a Galaxy.

At first I felt the way you describe here but over time ive grown to like it a bit more. Ive had flagship galaxy devices and LG phones when they were around before and never have I gotten such good battery life performance on any android as I have with my iPhone. The build quality is also top tier and its not even got so much as a scratch or dent on it after 3 years. I was upset at first I couldnt access root storage but I learned to work around that. I used to pirate movies on my androids and watch them directly from it, now I still pirate movies but I stream them over plex which is way more convenient anyways.

    The BIG thing that makes this great imo is the option for "sustain buttons". It basically inverts the buttons that you select. So you can sustain the B button so you can always run in Mario, and then pressing it down and unpressing it actually unpresses and presses so you can do things like throw fireballs. Feels really great to play like that cause you can run without using the button.

    As an iOS developer you can basically opt not to adhere to DMA and keep everything as it was before (so not publish to the alternative iOS stores, just keep all on the App Store). This DMA only applies for developers that intend to use alternative stores and/or alternative payments... But as always, Apple made it super hard to understand and that's why the most developers don't publish apps in the Europe... 😢

    This is entirely Apple’s fault. It’s a completely arbitrary rule that prevents devs from putting apps in the App Store if they use an alternative store front. What reasonable justification is there for that?

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but what is the reason the app isn't available in the EU apple app store? I'm pretty sure there aren't any costs just because someone lives in the EU if you put your app in the store, just like in all the other locations. And hiding it behind a subscription for a "alternative app store" is a bit unfortunate to say the least.

    I couldn't care less about any emulators software or hardware that I'm not going to use or have interest in, but you are one of the few youtubers who are genuine and truly love what they do. And even fewer of the youtubers whose content is captivating I have had enough snacks and softdrinks this week so your next favorite snack and drink is on me. Keep up the fantastic work Russ. 👏 Edit: I also forgot that you do one of the best things a youtubers can do and that's to not beg for likes and subscriptions.

    I’ve ALWAYS been a SmartPhone hater when it comes to Emulation just because I didn’t want to go through a bunch of steps to side-load them. This made it a BAJILLION times easier & better, now I have access to a bunch of Fan Translations that I haven’t before (I don’t have a PC & I have to buy pre-made SD cards for my Retro Handhelds 😅) I had so much fun just browsing through all the cool ROM Hacks that I’ve always wanted to try & it’s so easy to pair a controller & hook it up to my tv 😁

    After sideloading the app for years now it is such a relief to at least have this on my phone until Apple or Nintendo cracks down on the app. But until then I don’t need to reinstall any certificates or refresh the app, it’s just there. Which is such a freaking relief. And it makes casually playing retro games way easier for me when I get real busy.

If it is free in an "alternate app store", at least 50 euro cents will be charged per user per year for downloads/updates (to the alternate store itself, and again to the app developer if it is over 1 million downloads). If it is free in the actual EU app store (like it is outside the EU), downloads would still be free to the developer.

    I’ve been using it since release and honestly it’s very impressive. It’s easy to use, and set up. Only one thing keeps it from being near perfect, and that’s not having a full screen DS option. I’ve gotten so used to the format of DS emulation with a designated button to switch between top and bottom screens. I know they said that more systems are coming g soon (3ds would be crazy if they could have it working as smooth as DS, with the full screen/swap option).

    Ipad users can use the built in zoom function in the accessibility options to have a better full screen experience on thier Ipads. Choose "Full Screen Zoom" in the region setting. Double tapping with 3 fingers zooms in and out. Triple tapping with 3 fingers opens a few options to tinker with including how much it's zoomed. Obviously it'd be better to just have a full screen option in delta but in the mean time hope this helps. 😅
