Good news for all those who have been waiting for a better way to run the Delta game emulator on an iPad: with version 1.6 now available, iPad support is finally here. The latest update is a big one, as it not only brings an iPad-optimized version of the emulator, but also seamless switching between iPhone and iPad, some improvements to DS support, new menu button skins and gestures, and a new logo. (Delta had to scrap its old logo after Adobe threatened to sue it over the similarities to its signature “A.”)
Delta version 1.6 update is now available on both App Store and the Alternative shop PAL. It comes just three months after Delta creator Riley Testut promised that iPad support was on the way and would allow for both full-screen and multi-window play using Stage Manager and Split View. Before you run and download it, though, take note of the developers' warnings about DS games: “This update is incompatible with existing DS save states. Please save normally in-game before updating to avoid losing progress.” The Delta team has also created a new app, Delta legacyto help users migrate their saved states. Instructions for the process can be found in the Delta website.
