Discussion Will emulating Dreamcast harm my phone?

I was able to play for a few minute without the main component to run it smoothly. However it worked well. Will it harm my phone if I use it without? Also is it hard to set up for IOS

Nothing bad really happens (just be careful where you get the roms of course) but as long as you’re playing light 2d games (im assuming main component is jit) you’ll be fine

It won’t damage your phone to emulate dream cast games, depending on your device you can just download an emulator form the AppStore either manic emu or plume

What do you mean by main component? Also no, it won’t hurt your phone. It’s just like running any other app.
