    Good evening Touch Arcade! :)

    In the recent months there has been a explosion of emulators on the Apple platforms. Apparently because Apple now allow emulation on its platforms. (Or have been forced to by the EU?). For us that have no real experiance with emulation and want to give it a spin. Advise.

    (( Don’t discuss where to get ROMs (GAMES fyi) and stuff like that, as I understand that downloading a ROM of a game that you don’t own personally is illegal. ))

    Here I want a discussion of emulation on iOS/iPadOS in general, how it works, what to get and what is the best, pros and cons - and so on and so forth. No question is too dumb, we are all beginners in the beginning. :D

    So what to download and where to start?

    A google search gives me this: ( https://www.google.com/search?q=emulators+on+ios&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=sv-se&client=safari )
    PPSSPP, iNDS, Provenance, corellium inc, RetroArch, Delta, Dolphin, Nintendo DS, Eclipse, GBA4iOS, Appetize.io LLC

    A not very good wiki about emulation on iOS:
    https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Emulators_on_iOS

    So, for me as a total noob on emulation, what emulator should I go with? I want something simple that doesn’t require me to make a lot of settings. I want something that just work right out of the box without a mess.
