Last week, the Delta<\/strong> emulation suite<\/a> was launched on the App Store<\/strong>, which allows for easy emulation of classic Nintendo games on iOS up to the Nintendo 64<\/strong> era <\/strong>without the need for jailbreaking. However, certain technical restrictions imposed by Apple<\/strong> are making it difficult for a functional emulator for later Nintendo home consoles to appear on iOS.<\/p>\n\n\n

DolphiniOS<\/strong>, a fork of the popular Dolphin<\/strong> emulator for Nintendo Wii and GameCube games, confirmed a few days ago that it will not be available on the App Store despite emulators being allowed<\/a>. The reason behind this decision is that Apple does not allow DolphiniOS to use its underlying performance enhancement technology<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to its developer, OatmealDome<\/strong><\/a>, DolphiniOS uses a compilation called Just-in-Time (JIT)<\/strong>, which “translates” the PowerPC-based code of GameCube and Wii to a language that other devices can understand, making the emulations work more efficiently<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
