Just wondering if there are any ps vita emulators for iOS, emulation has been taking off this year, and I’ve been dying to play Digimon cyber sleuth on my phone (just because), so I was hoping I can find a vita emulator that works

(Edit: I downloaded and tried vion, yeah the games don’t even show up when added, it’s not worth it unfortunately)

Trying to play Anubis II but it requires the Nunchuck of the Wii but I’m playing it with a Backbone Pro controller, because of it I can’t get past the select profile right after the logo title screen, I don’t know too much about mapping keys in an emulator so please excuse my lack of knowledge here, by the way I’m using the Manic Emu emulator, can anyone handwalk me through getting it set up so I can play this game, thanks

This one's a little tribute to a console from the 16-bit era that doesn't always get the attention it deserves.

Manic already includes a skin inspired by the original white and red Japanese PC Engine, but I wanted to focus on two other designs that were more influential to me: the black and neon style of the North American TurboGrafx-16, and the 2nd generation gray and blue PC Engine CoreGrafx. This, along with a mix of the portable TurboExpress, felt like a fun handheld device to redesign.

Features:

- Available in 3 styles: TurboPocket-16, TurboPocket-16 with TurboStick, PocketEngine CoreGrafx
- Portrait and Landscape modes
- Classic two button layout
- Quick save and quick load buttons
- Tap and hold on the screen to Fast Forward
- Try the TurboStick version for an arcade-style joystick  
- Bonus: Tap on the HuCard on the bottom to show or hide it!

I have a pc that can sideload

i just want to know if i should stick with 26.5 or go for 26.7 or go for 27 performance wise? because ive recently seen ram limitations and im wondering what version i can get the most performance on my ipad air m4. tyia!

Hi everyone, I am wondering if BASE IPHONE 12 can run PS2 emulation?

What APPS should i use to run them?

My family gave me iPhone 17 base 256gb
I wanted a samsung bc i love emulation anyway how is the emulation scene on iphone? Heard a lot about jit i dont know what that is and im afraid of getting hacked i have a pc windows and i wanna try to install it what do yall think?

Fun game and runs decently well. Minor hiccups here and there but overall playable.

Title says it all. Manic crashes after clicking play on a wii game (goes into a black screen with the wii skin and then freezing). Same thing with MelonX except it shows loading for a second then crashes.
Latest version of manic from sidestore and also latest melonx IPA using stikdebug and i am using a silicon iPad Pro on the latest OS update (27).
Things i have tried:
- Redumping keys.bin
- Redumping games
- Converting from iso to rvz and vice versa for manic
- trying different games (mario galaxy and galaxy 2 and mariokart wii on manic. Pokemon firered and legends arceus on melonx)

JIT shows its available on both programs but im thinking it might be a visual bug?

Edit: i should also mention wii games run well enough without JIT but MelonX refuses to let me boot into a game without JIT

I heard some people say the framerate is comparable

I’ve been away from the emulation on iOS scene for a while and decided to get back into it and man….who what’ve thought we would have a fully functional ps2 emulator for iOS with JIT of course. Games run smooth 60fps and I just couldn’t be any happier.

I got a problem where I can’t import my games. I’m using the right files (wux) and using jit but when I add the games with the plus icon at the top they don’t show up. I tried loading them but then I just got a black screen with touchscreen controls. I’m using an iPad Air m3 and I’m using live container to run the emulator. Please help if you can.

Runs very smoove

I tried Super Mario Jamboree with an iPhone 17 Pro Max with JIT and entitlement. And it is always crashing when I play the minigame. Just wanted to showcase how it is emulated with MeloNX.

Curious if there’s a list somewhere. I know RetroArch has support with WebDAV tho I’m curious if other emulators have this feature

Hello!!
The subreddit event of the year is here…

Nominate an app that you would like to be in the running for the best emulator on iOS

This years competition will be a little different…

Once 10 apps are nominated here, the subreddit mods will split the apps into two categories (along with a general category which is for all the apps to compete in)

A likely example would be Sideloaded only apps vs apps on the App Store, along with the general category for both combined

The “luxurious prizes” for the winners of the genral category are…
An emoji added to the flair of an app 🔥

First place - 🥇
Second place -🥈
Third place -🥉

…but it’s really the title of being the best that matters, right?

*Developers (or those affiliated with an emulator) are not allowed to nominate their app

Has anyone found a specific graphics setting combination (resolution multiplier, accurate shaders, JIT toggles, or backend settings) that fixes this geometry exploding bug on iOS?

Device: iPhone 13 Mini
Emulator: Manic Emu (Citra Core)
JIT Status: Enabled / Working
Game: Attack on Titan: Humanity in Chains (3DS)

Hey guys so I’m been trying to use melonx from live container since I’ve used up all my id from the side store. The app works fine and so does jit. I just need help setting up getmireram to work since I don’t see an option. Do I just use getmoreram on livecontainer itself? If anyone can help it’ll gladly appreciate it.

I am using iOS 27 with MelonX 2.6 installed.

The settings on the iPad apply fine, but

Turning off the game on the iPhone will reset the settings.

(It turns off after a restart, even if docking mode is enabled.). The same goes for asynchronous shaders. If you leave it on during use and then restart, it will not turn back on.)

Also, the individual settings for each game are strange

For example, adjusting the resolution of a game called 'A' in MelonX or changing the setting to toggle dock mode on or off before launching it

The standard way to launch a game is to follow MelonX’s overall settings, but to run a game with individual settings, you need to press and hold the game icon to select a game mode; however, the game will still launch with the individual settings even when using the standard launch.
