There are a few things I have searched myself, discovered by accident or just tested because I couldn't find anyone else talking about it and thought I'd post this random collection of thoughts for anyone searching terms!
1) I didn't realise you can install turnip drivers to Dolphin. I was finding some Wii games difficult to emulate at 2 or 3x and getting the odd stutter on GameCube with similar resolutions. I tested the r17 and r18 turnip drivers and it was much much improved and similar performance to what reviewers were showing in their videos.
2) I've had lots of problems with copying/moving files where I copy between the internal storage and the SD card and the process fails. So don't use 'Move to'. Always 'Copy to' in case it just crashes. I lost a couple of large ROMs with this happening.
3) There is lots of talk about different Yuzu forks but frankly I've not seen any real differences in my usage with the last version of Yuzu. I don't think it's worth getting all these forks until we see definitive new features. With the r18 turnip driver I have lots of things running that I couldn't find videos on and some not running that I have seen others run.
For example, I can't get any Assassins Creed game to run for some reason and Crysis 2 has major glitches. LEGO Skywalker Saga also crashed even with imported saved data which another person claimed would get you in-game. But some games I've seen either people run with major glitches, not at all or just couldn't find a good test video but I seem to be able to play just fine are Bravely Default 2, Xenonblade 1 (NCE turned off), Company of Heroes, Persona Royal, Star Ocean, Zau, Legend of Heroes, Tennis World Tour 2, WRC Generations. Outer Worlds is hit or miss on the colours/lighting of the environment glitching when outside.
4) Lots of people are talking about Winlator performance. I've installed and gone into about 12 games and to be honest the only consistently working ones are pre-2015 GOG titles with controller support. I've never been able to get controller mapping to work right on other titles like Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Call of Duty 4 and Oblivion. One thing that is annoying with the Odin 2 and Winlator is the analog/digital only triggers that mean trigger use can be hit or miss with how you press them.
And as with many of us, I have suffered from the 'the Odin 2 can do so much' and then inevitably tinkering loads without playing said systems. I've now set up ES-DE as my launcher (anyone seen battery drain from doing this?) and WiFi is off so that I actually play some games properly!

Delta Emulator FAQ

Welcome! Before diving in, please take a moment to read through this FAQ for essential information about Delta Emulator.

How do I download the app?

• For EU users: AltStore Link
• For all users: App Store Link

How do I use emulators like Gamma, Dolphin, PPSSPP, etc.?

• For detailed usage instructions, head over to EmulationOniOS. This subreddit focuses solely on discussing Delta on iOS.

Why are my thumbnails blank?

• It couldn't fetch the artwork for the ROM so you have to hold the game down press change artwork then choose an image.

Where can I get ROMs?

• We strictly adhere to legal practices and do not support obtaining ROMs unless from a legal source. Guides on acquiring ROMs from legitimate sources will be provided in the near future.

Where can I get BIOS files?

• Similar to ROMs, we do not endorse acquiring BIOS files through illegitimate means.

My files won't load into Delta Emulator!/How do I unzip files?

• Supported file types for loading include .zip, .rar, .7z, and others. To unzip files on iPhone, you may need to download a compatible app like unzip.

What file types/game types are supported?

• NES: .NES
• SNES: .SMC
• Nintendo 64: .z64
• Sega Genesis (Available for Patrons): .md
• Gameboy: .gb
• Gameboy Color: .gbc
• Gameboy Advance: .gba
• Nintendo DS: .nds

Can I trade Pokémon between devices?

• This feature is currently in development.

When will PS1/PSP or other game types be supported?

• Sega Genesis is currently available for Patrons. Stay updated on other releases by following their Patreon or visiting their website.

My question isn't answered here.

• First, check the Delta Emulator Website for additional information.
• If your question remains unanswered, feel free to post it in the subreddit or join the Discord community for further assistance.

We strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information. If you notice any discrepancies or have additional insights, please leave a comment.
Last updated: 05-14-2024

These are some of the frequently asked questions we've gathered regarding iOS emulation. This is a direct copy of the FAQ which can be found on the sidebar.

Where can I get ROMs?

• Refer to the Roms megathread.
  • Do not make a new post on ROMs, just read their above-linked megathread.
  • Remember to read rule 1 of this subreddit.

Where can I get BIOS files?

• Refer to The Emulation Wiki and look for "Files". As always, remember to read rule 1 of this subreddit.

What is JIT? How do I get it?

• JIT, or Just in Time, is a technique used by emulators such as Dolphin to emulate the CPUs of consoles at fast speeds. Without JIT, some emulators would run at unplayably slow frame rates. However, on non-jailbroken iOS devices, an app cannot use JIT by default.
• To get JIT on non-jailbroken devices, you can use AltJIT for example.
• Devices running iOS 17 or higher currently require a Mac to enable JIT.

What Apps are available?

• See the Wiki
• You can't play Switch games on any iOS device.
• App Store apps cannot use JIT, which means emulators for newer retro consoles (Wii/GC/PS2) will not come to the App Store unless Apple allows usage of JIT.

When is coming to the App Store?

• See the Wiki for App Store links/statuses. We don't have specific dates for much anything, since it takes time for Apple to review the apps.

My files won't load into emulator!/How do I unzip files?

• Zipped files can end in .zip, .rar, .7z, and other filetypes.
• How to unzip file on iPhone. If that doesn't work, you may need to download an app that unzips files

Locate the zip file you wish to download.
Download the file to your iPhone. Note that download options will also vary depending on where the file is located.
On your device, open the Files app.
Locate the file you wish to open in the “Downloads” section of the app.
Tap the zip file. Your device will automatically begin unzipping it.

Folium - What does "Beta Not Found" mean?

• There is currently no working TestFlight link for Folium. Keep an eye out for their Discord server for updates.

Why does my emulator keep crashing?

These steps apply especially for Limon and Folium, but you should try them (or similar steps) for other emulators too.

• General:
  • Use a different ROM.
  • Enable/Disable JIT.
  • Simply accept the fact that some games don't work.
• Limon:
  • Try downgrading your app.
  • Disable CPU/Shader JIT.
  • Disable Hardware Shader.
• RetroArch:
  • Before playing your game, scroll down to set core association then select the correct core for the system you are trying to play. This only needs to be done each time you attempt to play a new system you haven't tried before.
• 3DS:
  • Get a nand file and make a mii (3DS).

Why does my game show a black screen when I try to play it?

• First, try all the steps in the above section. If it still doesn't work, try one of these:
  • If using a zipped file, unzip it before inserting it into the emulator's folders.
  • If using Limon and a New 3DS game, make sure you're using .3DS or .cia files and import them into Limon through the app itself. Also make sure New 3DS is enabled.

Hi everyone,
I'm posting this to help those getting started with the RG556. I learned these things after watching tons of youtube videos, so I hope it helps. Veterans who have more tips are more than welcome to add them in the comments. I used to emulate a lot on pc a decade ago, but I have only recently got back, so there are many things I don't know. Also veterans: please help with point 25 below.
1) Where to buy the RG556 ? this will depend on where you live. For me ebay wasn't an option. I got mine from AliExpress, Anbernic Direct Store, and my experience was very good. It was cheaper than the official Anbernic website. In all cases, you may want to pay with paypal just to be safe.
2) Blue or Black ? With Bag or not ? I bought the blue model with the fancy bag and I'm happy.
3) Should you buy the option that has Device + SD cards with preloaded roms ? The general recommendation is no, get your roms yourself on a decent SD card. I bought a Sandisk Extreme 512GB, but that was probably overkill, 256GB probably would have been enough. Building a rom collection takes a lot of time, but you don't need to make a whole library from day one. Just begin with a few games you want to play.
4) What charger ? You can use your phone charger. You need a 5V 2A output. A bit higher ampere output is also ok.
5) Where to get my roms ? Assuming you own the games legally, you can get information in the Roms reddit. Concerning Vita, I recommend only the nonpdrm archive, otherwise it becomes a pain to load games.
6) Your device has arrived, what to do ? First, install the screen protector. For this you can follow the video of Retro Game Corps. Don't panic if you didn't get it perfect on first try. In my case I had a big vertical bubble air that wouldn't go away. It's because it wasn't perfectly in place, protruding a bit to the left. So I raised, very gently, the tiny part that was exceeding using my fingernails and put it in perfect position. Google for "How To Rescue A Badly Installed Tempered Glass Screen Protector", if necessary.
7) Now to actually get started. You can follow the video of Joey's Retro Handhelds, RG556 Starter Setup Guide. However, DO NOT delete the paid apps. Unless you want to purchase them. So don't delete M64PlusPro or YabaSanshiro Pro or Drastic. I deleted Drastic by mistake but it's fine, MelonDS seems good so far.
8) Insert your SD card (preloaded or custom) in the socket, while the RG556 is off. Push it gently but ALL THE WAY until it clicks into place. I had to use my finger tips for this. If you don't push it all the way and start your device, it will damage your SD card. Unfortunately I got all my precious roms erased in my first attempt because of this, but thankfully after reformatting the card and fully inserting it, it worked. As you insert, the SD card logo should be up, facing you. Refer to Joey's video if you are in doubt.
9) To save space, it is recommended that you compress your roms. For PS1, PS2, Saturn and Dreamcast, use chd format. For N64 and old consoles: .zip. The rest basically in their standard format. For psp, use iso. You could compress the iso for psp, but some people report issues with this. How to compress roms into chd format ? use chdman. There are many versions on the web, older ones do not work for dreamcast if I remember well. So use the one that has a "bat" file called "cue-gdi-iso to chd". A version of this seems available at the recalbox website, for some reason the french website has the more recent one that includes iso compression, not the english one (the program itself is english). I can't remember where I got mine. Anyway, just double click on this bat file after putting your roms in the same folder and the magic will work, without any script. Retro game corps recommended a certain interface called namdhc, which for me worked well in the beginning, but then became buggy, so I prefer the oldschool bat.
10) Follow Joey's guide to configure each emulator, get the bios, set the controls, retroachievements, etc. I disagree with some choices of emulators so let me detail below.
11) PS1 emulation: Use a standalone Duckstation. Google for "duckstation/android" and download it from the duckstation website. Pick the regular apk version. I didn't test the playstore version. Do not use the retroarch Swanstation. It gave me garbage performance. Your default setting here is to use Vulkan, upscale the graphics 5x, enable "use software renderer for readbacks" and enable "pgxp geometry correction". This should play most games well. If you get slowdowns, lower the resolution to 4x or 3x (I didn't need lower than 4x on any game so far). Didn't attempt widescreen, so you can test and see for yourself if it looks good on a game per game basis.
12) PS2 emulation: use AetherSX2 v1.5-3668. You can find it on the archive website. This is the most tested version. Joey recommends a patched NetherSX2, but I tested both and I think that for the RG556, Aether works better. In particular, crash bandicoot ran like garbage on Nether but very well on Aether. Now a word of caution: you cannot have both emulators installed. So if you want to test both emulators for a given game, you will need to uninstall the one you currently have. But before uninstalling, backup your saves, otherwise you will lose everything. To do this, use the "Transfer data" in the menu and export to a folder you know. Then import this data back in your newly installed emulator. Also, make sure you make a memorycard save, as the savestates will get corrupted in this process. Now, what are the recommended settings ? use Vulkan with 1.5x resolution as default and vary from there depending on the game (some higher, some lower). My own default also include: multi-threaded vu1 and instant vu1 in system, and threaded presentation in graphics. In some games I also need to set the hardware download mode as unsynchronized. Only in extreme cases do I try the system underclock (EEC Rate and EEC cycle). This can indeed make a big difference in lagging situations. Unfortunately some games just won't work well no matter what. I think the previous tweaks are enough for beginners and will get most games to play well on the RG556. There are tons of more advanced options for real nerds.
13) PSP emulation: use PPSSPP from the official website. Your default settings are Vulkan with 4x resolution and widescreen. Lower the resolution per game if necessary (all games ran perfectly for me at 4x except maybe God of War and Dante which require 3x or 2x).
14) Dreamcast emulation: use the retroarch Flycast. Your default settings should be Vulkan with 2.5x resolution, though 2.25 is probably all you need. I didn't have any issue with any game with 2.5 so far. Lower if necessary. Widescreen seems to work well in general.
15) Saturn emulation: Contrary to Joey, I got much better results with the default RG556 Yaba Sanshiro Pro, than with the retroarch Beetle saturn, which didn't even recognize my Panzer Dragoon roms and had glitches/slowdowns in many games. So yeah, don't delete the Yaba Sanshiro Pro which is installed. You can also compare each game with Beetle saturn. If you already deleted it, you can install the free version, but it may perform a bit worse. No graphics upscale for saturn.
16) N64 emulation: the default M64PlusPro works very well. In Display, my default resolution is 1440x1080, it seems stable, but I confess I didn't test a lot.
17) Nintendo DS emulation: MelonDS is recommended. I didn't test much. I think the out of the box settings worked well. It's a system that should play without any problem. I may be wrong but I think there is no upscale setting. People say you may upscale in Drastic. So it's a good reason not to delete it.
18) Gamecube emulation: Use the Dolphin from the official website, the latest beta version. Default should be OpenGL with 2x resolution. Lower if necessary on a game per game basis. You can also experiment with Vulkan. If you get slowdowns, then some people recommend using the Dolphin MMJR 11505. You can find this one on the archive website. I didn't test the gamecube much but the games I tested ran well.
19) Wii emulation: Same Dolphin (regular or MMJR). Only tested a Fire Emblem game and it worked fine. People recommend using European (PAL) roms for better performance.
20) 3DS emulation: the best build for the RG556 seems to be the Citra MMJ 20231222, which is still available on github at the time I'm writing this. Many games work at 2x resolution. There are several builds: standard and Antutu. My understanding is that the Antutu may play games faster but also consume resources faster. So stick with the standard MMJ unless your game plays slow. A new alternative that seems promising is Lime3DS.
21) Vita emulation: Get the Vita3k from the official website. Emulation here seems binary: either very good or unplayable. Several games seem to run great, e.g. Persona 4 Golden. Still, the emulator is quite new so hopefully you don't get unexpected crashes after 20 hours... maybe ask in dedicated forums/reddit if your game of interest in fully playable until the end. Many games don't boot on the RG556 so there it's clear from the start.
22) Switch emulation: my advice, don't bother. You will only frustrate yourself. Very few games run at full speed, and you generally need to go to 0.5x resolution. This specific emulation is also very unstable, and I'd say there is a significant chance your game may crash unexpectedly later even if it seems to run well for the first few hours. If you want Switch games, buy a Switch Lite, it is cheaper than the RG556.
23) Any youtube streams ? Yes, forthenext has tons of live streams for the RG556.
24) What about the battery ? I find it satisfactory. For PS1 games I'm very happy with it. PS2 is of course more demanding. If you want specific figures, check the streams of forthenext, he displays the battery at the stream start and end, in the description or comments.
25) Are there spreadsheets with tested games? YES ! and you can help expanding them. Here is the one for RG556:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16z49gqJEuzyI1PSMsi231CD8FhCeaBbrZ-NlYpj518E/edit#gid=1839465806
The previous spreadsheet is publicly editable, which is great because it means we can all enrich it, but it also means it's a good idea to download regular backups of it, just in case someone tries anything funny. It took countless hours of testing to get it. If your game is not featured there, then check the following ones for the RP3+ and RP4+. The RG556 performance lies between these two:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets1/d/1Vf7SIS7ecWa_J301h0mb2bxMWBMtKLvcpAFyaa5-LDc/htmlview
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pt2LCjE2RBvPlCQBmiPI7ashzGRzEAjx7O50wRfRq7U/edit#gid=795689960
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BEtjET1HihLtNt1LCN0r44h7y3Lq1rvbeAd2gZ8re3s/edit#gid=1863516520
Finally, you have the general Aether sheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gvYgOd1MZUndLwRVLgd7qFVks8ISrrVAcmBvraZmTsM/edit#gid=1345672843
All these spreadsheets often contain very valuable recommendations on how to tweak the game to perform well. So check them out for the games you want. And do help the RG556 community with your own tweaks (first spreadsheet) !
Happy gaming !

So just recently Ive started to dabble into emulation for android and Ive been wanting to play Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze. But the issue is where do I get the rom download from? Ive been getting my roms from the website "Emulator Games" but that Donkey Kong game isnt on there so where can I get it from?
Also if it matters im using the Dolphin Emulator for Wii games.

Help with JIT not working
I added dolphin to my iPhone using a PC and AltStore. I have two ROMs. When I try to launch them it says I need jit. So my phone doesn't connect over WiFi for some reason so I have it connected by usb c cable. When I hit install jit or whatever the wording is, I can then pick my phone and then pick either dolphin or AltStore. No matter which one I pick, the pc says THE URL TO DOWNLOAD THE DEVELOPER DISC IMAGE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. Does anyone know how I can fix this? TYIA

To keep it short, getting a flip tomorrow but going on mini vacation, how long would it take to setup it for gamecube before I leave home? I’ve had several handhelds but never android, I don’t even have an android account. I was thinking windwaker and starfox assault would be great for a couple day trip.
Anyway, is it as simple as download dolphin, put my rvz rom on sd card with a gamecube folder and a separate bios folder, plug it in and play? Do I even need bios for GC? Do I need an SD card for just a couple of games? Any specifics like formats needed for sd card?
I’d like to add a couple n64 too but sounds like that’s quite a bit more involved getting retroarch involved, I’m just kinda guessing though, with time constraints seems dolphin setup might be easier.

So I downloaded the Dolphin and Project 64 emulators and was able to find some really fun ROMs for a bunch of games that are harder to find (and specifically avoided ones I either already had a copy for or could already access through the Switch virtual library) What are people's opinions on:
-Streaming emulations if one keeps their mouth shut about it -Streaming games that are prohibitively expensive for a smaller streamer -Games you can't find normally
I know there is an ethical debate to be had here, but I would be streaming games that are either rather hard to find in working condition (like Marvel: Rise of the Imperfects, or Mickey Speedway USA).

I have the ROM, I have dolphin through emu deck, and I have the GBA_bios.bin file but I don’t know where to put the bios file to make the gba integration work for the game. I open BIOS in the roms file and there is no option for GameCube. I put the bios file in the GC file with my ROM and it still didn’t work. The GBA screens appear, but are blank and do nothing. When I open the user files in dolphin there is no GBA file to put the BIOS in. I did it on my laptop and it had the GBA file and worked fine, but does anyone know where to put it on steam deck dolphin? Any help is greatly appreciated

Soooo, i fucking need your help 🥲

1. I have a problem with CEMU. I set up a controller in desktop mode to play Wind Waker HD. First, I can't configure a pro controller, the game only responds with a gamepad scheme. And if I configure a gamepad, the game works in desktop mode, but when I switch to gaming mode and launch Zelda nothing works ... I've been at it for 3 hours and I can't figure out what's causing the problem...
   
2. With my first steamdeck on steam rom manager, I could put my emulators (CEMU, DOLPHIN) in gaming mode and configure them directly from there. Now only my roms appear in steam rom manager. There's no trace of the emulators, even though I did exactly the same steps as with my first steamdeck. What could be causing this problem?
   

Thanks in advance!

Hey everybody, can anybody tell me what is the cheapest phone I can buy (in the US) used or new doesn't matter as long as it has some form of software support (custom roms are fine) for the next 4 years. Also expandable storage and/or headphone jack would be good. I want it to be able to run Genshin and Dolphin emulator at passable framerates (15fps)
TL;DR Cheapest phone with these criteria (in order of importance)

• Some form of software support for at least 4 years
• Should be able to run games like Genshin and/or emulation at a passable framerates (15fps)
• Decent Camera
• [OPTIONAL] Expandable storage and/or headphone jack

Hello all, I have a question: What are the Pros & Cons of RetroArch/RomStation in comparison to other Emulators?
The context is I had forever used Emulators that are mostly focused on one or 2 consoles, like say Dolphin for GameCube & Wii, Snes9X for Super Nintendo, FCEUX for NES, etc. Still though, I've always heard about people using RetroArch and my friends like RomStation, but at the same time, I haven't heard particularly GOOD things about them in the sense they appear to be on par with what I'm already using.
From what I understand, RetroArch groups everything in one single App which is useful on its own, but I don't mind having multiple emulators installed, like after I've installed Dolphin and Snes9x, I'm set for the longrun. There are also the console features to account for, for instance Dolphin is able to use the GBA Link feature, Project64 was able to use Pokémon's Transfer Pack to use a GB save, and there's even a seperate emulator for the Super GameBoy on SNES, so I don't feel as if I'm missing on anything playing on PC. Lastly, I believe I'm more in control by having each Emulators be seperated like this, but I'm not sure if that amounts to anything.
So I'm just uncertain if it's worth trying RetroArch/RomStation even if they may be good emulators on their own rights, so what is it that they do better than Dolphin, Snes9X, etc.?
​
There's also a dilemma I'm having right now with my naming scheme; I've grouped all my games in a principal "ROMs" Folder for convenience, but while the cartridge games are actual ROMs, for CD-based games, they are mostly ISO Images, and people say those are not ROMs at all. So to end it once and for all; Is there a singular term that groups together ROMs and Images, or in other words Emulatable Game Files, to make things so much simpler? This is to quell my OCD brain and not have to think about it the next year and again.

Hi all, I updated Dolphin and now it isn't working. I go to start a game and it looks like it will launch for about two seconds and then it will kick me back to the game screen on Steam without any sort of error messages. I've reset Dolphin and Emudeck. I ran Steam ROM manager again. I think I've seen some other posts about this, is there a known fix? Thanks.

I’ve googled the hell out of this, I’m using emu deck to play GameCube games through dolphin in my steam deck, and have set 3D CRT filters to on in emudeck settings (as well as the decky plug in). But for some reason my GameCube roms still won’t load in with the CRT filter enabled. Any help out there?
