Comment on iPhone sideloading seems a certainty for European users - here's the latest development
DdCno1@beehaw.org 2 years agoI bought my first Android phone in late 2010. Its 600 MHz single-core CPU just barely ran a GBA emulator at playable speeds. The screen wasn’t multitouch and a bug in the operating system (fixed about a year or two later by the manufacturer) meant that any time the screen was being touched, CPU load would shoot up to 100% and everything slowed down to a crawl, which meant I could only play turn-based titles. That’s how I discovered Advance Wars.

PS2 emulation is my recent surprise. If you have a powerful enough device, then AetherSX2 will run games extremely well on it. Less powerful devices can still run PSP games using the remarkable PPSSPP emulator.
Then there’s the whole business of emulating Windows PCs. There’s a number of impressive apps that can be used to play even fairly new titles. I believe Winlator is the latest.

I’ve only used it with older games so far, but it works really well already. If you don’t mind a bit of fiddling with the configuration, I highly recommend trying it out.
