I installed Ignited via SideStore. No Jailbreaking necessary. Not computer tether. SideStore can renew the side loaded emulator every 7 days when on WiFi. The iPhone is perfect for DS emulation with a stylus.
(Ignited is a fork of Delta with more options, and SideStore is a fork of AltStore, with no computer tether needed)
I play on my Android phone and I honestly love being able to just install the APK once, or even just install the emulator from like the Play store.
Pokemon is like the perfect game to play on phones though, HG/SS is my fav Pokemon game in the series and it has a bunch of cool custom ROM versions too. Pokemon games just play so well on phones.
I just hate how you can’t easily trade from game to game to actually “collect em’ all”
The emulators I’ve tried made it very difficult
Can you do that on Android?
Yes. It’s even easier on Android. Look for RetroArch. It emulates a bunch of consoles.
I don’t know how it works in RetroArch, with Delta/Ignited you can change the skin which also manages the size and position of the screens. I even designed custom skins to play full screen with no controls with Zelda since you don’t need the abxy and arrow buttons to play.
Can confirm. I played so many games on DRaStic over the last few years. Zero issues.
Of course, some games are not well suited to a full touch screen, especially if they require quick coordination of both stylus and D-Pad. They are relatively few though - most games work great.
Holy fuck this gave me a nostalgia hit as strong as a freight train
I play Pokemon via PokeMMo and I urge you to check it out! It’s available for desktop, mac, Android and iOS. You just need the roms of the games you want to play and then you create your character and choose your starting region.
Can you explain more what it is? Unfortunately, I’m already using all 3 free apps so I can’t add it for now.
Sure! It’s an app/game you download which uses the Roms of the different games to enable you to play Pokemon online with other players, but you don’t have to engage with them. You can also choose to just play each game as if you were offline and then transition into a new region after the top four, while having access to your pokemon from the old region. It’s a lot of fun, but the devs rebalanced the games a bit, which makes it a bit harder, but still fair :) Here’s the link where you can find more information: https://pokemmo.com/en/
Can also vouch for pokemmo, it’s like Pokémon but better. Global trade market, large playerbase, slightly more difficult than traditional Pokémon games, travel between kanto, johto, hoenn and unova as the same character (fire red/leaf green, heartgold/soulsilver, emerald, black/white)
It truly is the Pokémon game Nintendo will never make and I’ll never go back to playing the normal games, it’s that good.
HeartGold is retro? Fuck Im old
