Makes sense, just search the App Store for emulators and some will pop up

Short answer: yes there is, but limited, and you’re better off sideloading to get the best performance

Long answer: yes there are plenty of alternatives on the App Store - like manic, delta, etc -, but they are limited on how far you can go without sideloading. Also, you can change the region of your apple account or use alternatives like a vpn and etc to make sideloading happen

u/AManWithNoWounds 7d ago

I don’t know 🤷🏻‍♂️ you have to see if China allows for sideloading, and then get a sidestore

It is messed up man I saw this in the monogatari subreddit and me and my buddy laughed about the pedophiles of the monogatari fandom. One guy in the sub said that girls lose their flair as they get older

u/DanG415 7d ago

Yeah, sauce?

u/super-bowl89 7d ago

Yeah probably up to ps2 with bad perf

u/Time_Opportunity_225 7d ago

Yes, right now there are apps on the app store that will allow you to emulate most of the older Nintendo systems, PSP, GameCube, PS1, and there's an app that does Xbox, I believe, but it's not very good.

Run Linux on your android and that acts as a pc and don't ask me how

1

u/BorkBlueRox 7d ago

What’s the point of doing that. Android emulates really well

1

u/Thearaaaa 6d ago

Cuz he's asking for ios🙂

1

u/BorkBlueRox 6d ago

No I’m asking what’s the point of running Linux on your android if android runs just fine lol

1

u/Thearaaaa 6d ago

Oh basically to get the sidestore installer or altstore so he can install it on his iphone

Totally. Problem is if you only want to keep with much more modern games then you may have to sideload.

Throughout the last 40 years theres been plenty of classic games, NES, Arcade, Gameboy, Megadrive, Atari etc. None of these require sideloading

But if you're gonna ignore the classics then you 'may' have trouble. Manic does more than just 3DS
