A couple of weeks ago Apple started allowing emulators onto its app store. Not a scene I’ve dabbled in before but once the free “Delta” mostly-Nintendo emulator starting taking over the charts I had to give it a go. It works great. Supposedly it’ll work with games from any of:
- NES
- SNES
- Game Boy
- Game Boy Color
- Game Boy Advance
- Nintendo DS
- Nintendo 64
- Sega Genesis / Megadrive
Me, a saint, has obviously been magically backing up my purchased Nintendo game cartridges since I was a baby (to be fair devices exist that can help do that sort of thing). But for anyone who has temporarily lost their local backups, searching for “roms” reveals a whole new world of archived games I didn’t really know existed.
Finally I can experience the joy of Mr Nutz once more, this time in mobile form.
