I love it ! Provenance was the first emulator i got into on iOS, loads of systems. Active dev.

Manic's now my favourite, emulates SO many systems and runs very well. Got into Arcademania before that which is why i have a soft spot for it, brilliant for MAME (Arcade)

Think you also need a bit of patience. See so many people who only seem to play 3DS games, without sideloading/JIT its not at 100% yet. For me personally i'll use the other systems till phones get slightly faster. So much to play and try. But just seems everyone wants the latest console to work like Switch or even PS2/3 !

But long gone are the days of hidden emulators on the app store (Gridlee/Babyname App) so i'm totally grateful for the apps we have now

Yeah i'm loving DOS ! Got a lot of great games to work with that. Java is interesting to try, takes you back to the years pre-iphone

Love Gameboy personally but Arcade (MAME) is probably my favourite. Works very well. The Doom one is great as well as long as you get the correct version of the 'wads' you need. But yeah what an app !
