They can't stop it, it's completely legal and has been available by sideloading through AltStore for years now. Nice to be able to install it via official channels, though I can't get that copy of it to let me sync with DropBox right now. It keeps crashing right after I tap 'Allow' in the DB popup.
Things change, and I have no doubt that Nintendo's psychotic IP enforcement team is sending a liquid metal robot to various targets to "enforce" their IP via a hail of laser fire.
Now when do we start seeing emulators for the Apple TV?
I think that would be more interesting for a lot of folks.

This guy will end up making the Vision Pro popular with Delta emulator alone.
Oh man I just found an old Game Boy with Super Mario Land 6 Golden Coins while cleaning out a closet. I used to play that all the time back in the day. This is so awesome. Only thing is I wish the controllers/buttons use the Taptic Engine or some way to feel like you were pushing a button.
SE as in Sweden, EU. But it seems article is updated about it being available in an Alt Store for us.

I tried Mario Kart and Super Mario World 2 but the refresh rate makes me want to vomit 😖 it’s all flickering
I was just trying it out and I did get haptic feedback when I push the buttons. See if it's disabled somewhere for you?
It actually works really well; was able to play some Mario without dying *too* much. My only complaint is there's a bit of an audio delay when using my AirPods.
Will they allow dynamic recompilation or is it all interpreter based?
Looks like they are skipping the AppleTV for some reason.

I wonder why the developer is trying to gatekeep where the consumer can get the app from?
It is a bit ironic he’s doing that after everything. It’s still free but really flies in the face of everything developers like him have been pushing for with Apple for years.
Apple didn’t take down the Bimmy emulator, the dev did because there were a few forum members here that were scaring him on Nintendo’s behalf
Of course. But without the games emulation is pointless.
What’s gross is mods lets it happen. That person is still posting in that thread about how their mission is to get Apple to reverse course on emulators.
"Don’t complain about about fragmentation" they said. "If you don’t want alternative app stores, just don’t use them and nothing will change for you"
Well, there we go. Of course the stores will leverage exclusivity. So far, no benefits for customers.

Cannot believe emulators are able to run natively on iOS now. I’ve gotten so used to side loading them for years. All I can say is, finally.
Is he some Nintendo attorney without enough work to do in Redmond?
I’d bet he’s nothing more than a diehard Nintendo fanboy.
I’m a game dev and I’m making a game called Wink for game boy. So are a ton of people in the indie game community.
This is true of every retro console out there
We wanted sideloading, not alternative app stores
