Support NeoGAF

The hapatic feedback on the newer iPhones really is sublime and makes the experience here even better overall

 

[cyberheater]

Just tried it with the backbone game controller. Works great.

 

[Alexios]

This is false. There is no Sega support. It only is for the Nintendo systems mentioned in the original story.

Granted, it's in beta so maybe for patreon subscribers but the various pages (and article you cite) mentioning support for the system aren't very clear about that

 

[VAVA Mk2]

Android users be like

Bro the original story linked in the OP literally says this

(and even the Sega Genesis, for when you want to play those games that Nintendon't).

 

[Dorfdad]

I can't imagine wanting to play games on a shitty phone screen with shitty touch screen controls (or having to lug around a shitty seperate controller for it)

What's the options? Some of us have iPhones with us at all times now you want to carry that plus another devices like a 3ds etc around in our pockets? It's really convenient to have it on the phone and synch across our devices with saves etc.

 

[RoboFu]

You can use an iPhone as a usb drive but the files you add via that method won't show up within iOS.

No you can hook a usb drive up to an iPhone and it reads in the files app which other apps can access if user gives them permission.

 

[DeepSpace5D]

Whoa…this is awesome. Just gave it a shot on my Ipad pro and everything works, except I have no audio for some reason. I'll play around with it though.

 

[IntentionalPun]

No you can hook a usb drive up to an iPhone and it reads in the files app which other apps can access if user gives them permission.

That's not what I was talking about, talking about just plugging an iPhone into a pc and loading files onto it.

I don't believe those are accessible from within iOS but I could be wrong.

 

[Dacvak]

Dang this is so awesome. I never thought I'd actually see the day where I'd have to stop jankily sideloading emulators on my iPhone. Now all I need is Dolphin with USB to GCN controller support and I will be good forever.

I apologize, you are right. I didn't read the article since I avoid Vox trash and was basing it on other sites that discussed Delta and what systems are actually supported in the App Store release. But hey, my ROMS are ready for when they do decide to support it. As of now it doesn't so we wait.

 

[ComputerBlue]

I hope this app gets screen resizing options at some point, it's hard to play some of these games on a small screen without changing the aspect ratio.

 

[FoxMcChief]

I'd like to see some new skins available at some point, or the ability to remove them.

 

[Davevil]

In europe 1,5€ at year only to install the alt store with only one app ?

 

[FoxMcChief]

This is what the screen looks like when playing a DS game in landscape with a backbone controller.

 

[Porticus]

Android only wish to have apps so fucking good and polished.

 

[DeaconOfTheDank]

I remember jail breaking my iPod Touch in junior high and emulation was the primary reason for it. Good times.

Pretty neat to finally see a decent emulator make its way to the official appstore. Gave it a spin and I'm pretty impressed with the quality so far:

Spoiler: SNES

 

[onnextflix5]

Not sure there is much (if anything) they can do about it

They can quietly complain to apple, like they did with Microsoft. Don't expect it anytime soon, don't think Nintendo wants to rock the boat so soon, give it a year or 2,

 

[Bojanglez]

Can I side load apps, download files, put videos on it for flights, etc? Basically use my phone as an external drive.

I also used to have all my devices ROM and save folders synched to Google Drive and I could seamlessly play and resume from my phone, tablet or Nvidia Shield, it was beautiful.

 

[Emedan]

How y'all play anything other than JRPGs on touch controls?

 

[FoxMcChief]

How y'all play anything other than JRPGs on touch controls?

I'm not. I'm using a backbone controller.

 

[cyberheater]

Is there a good snes style controller that will work with iOS.

 

[Ozriel]

The DS is so good.

Wonder if there's any swivel controller grip so it can be played in portrait with a PlayStation controller?

Edit: nvm just saw the screenshot from FoxMcChief . Looks fine in landscape

Yup, it does look fine.

 

[CitizenKratos]

So this only works if you live in EU countries?

 

[Maddux4164]

No need to go through that whole upload to gmail and add gmail to phone and etc

iPhone can absolutely download those files directly and Delta will see them and click open. Done. Easy.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

So this only works if you live in EU countries?

If you live in EU countries, you have to pay an arbitrary bullshit tax just to install a separate store just to install the stupid app.

 

[TheZink]

How can I get DS games to work? Keeps saying I need to downloading DS files but I'm not sure how to

 

[DeepSpace5D]

I have a Dualsense controller paired via bluetooth to my ipad. Works perfectly in Delta and is detected automatically in the settings.

I aint brining no controllers along. Point is, I think menu games is what makes sense on touch.

Oh Im playing on an ipad pro 13 inch at home. I don't bring it out with me often, that'd be like bringing your laptop with you all the time. I have it sitting on my desk paired with controller and it's awesome.

If I was just using my little phone while out then yeah I'm not going to bother bringing a controller as well.

 

[Musashipan]

I hope Nintendo sues them.

 

[LordOfChaos]

How "strange" that Apple had a sudden change of heart on this policy, just when they're forced to allow third party app stores. Not like this would take a lot of the wind out of them as a significant reason people wanted them.

Anyways, I'm in Canada and not getting the third party EU app stores, so I'm glad to be playing Pokemon Stadium 2 on my iPhone anyway!

 

[cyberheater]

For what?

Tbh I can see myself playing with a controller in a long flight on my iPad Pro.

Really does. So awesome to have instant access to this stuff (as an iphone user). Maybe one of those small 8bitdo controller on a keychain would be nice compliment.

 

[RoadHazard]

Touch controls make me vomit uncontrollably.

 

[Maddux4164]

Pretty cool. You can add box arts via the games database. Already built into the app.

 

[Maddux4164]

Really does. So awesome to have instant access to this stuff (as an iphone user). Maybe one of those small 8bitdo controller on a keychain would be nice compliment.

Are those iOS compatible? I know the 8bitdo pro for like $50 is "officially supported".

That cheap $20 one would suit me fine for this purpose though. Just easy. Small. Play a bit and move on.

 

[Maddux4164]

For fun, tested Goldeneye 007 on N64

One of the more demanding games. It runs at full speed. No skips. Nothing. Phone emulation has come a long way. Also my iPhone is from 2020. So it's not the new 14 or 15 etc

[StereoVsn]

I really wish I could find a decent telescoping controller with USB C that could accommodate Pro Max phones with a thin case. All of them expect you to take the case off and I ask not dealing with that.

The new V2 Backbone controllers support Pro Max phones with a case.

And they're the best telescopic controller you can get, so win-win.

Hmm I bought one when it first came out, it didn't fit even a fairly thin case.

Are you sure it was a V2? The new models fit the majority of normal sized cases.

 

[StereoVsn]

Yeah, that was a V2. Maybe between the camera bump and the case it wouldn't work. I could probably cut that extra protection cut out or something but don't feel like doing that on a $100 controller.

 

[hullostranger]

Tetris??

Works great and looks crisp out of the box!

 

[Dorfdad]

I'd like to see some new skins available at some point, or the ability to remove them.

they are already available. https://delta-skins.github.io just add them to your iCloud or whatever and inside delta select the current skin and a + will show up top right and add a new one by importing the file you downloaded. Its a little tricky at first but its works
