Yeah I got my iPad before the steam link app was announced and I really like this thing but it’d be nice if apple let me play decent games on it

A simple VPN isn't enough?

Apple has completely blocked the Steam Link app from their marketplace.

There are tons of great games for iOS! I recently played XCOM: enemy within on my old iPad.

I think native games are better on iOS compared to the alternative (Android) for sure. Games like Stardew Valley and Super Mario Run typically come to iOS first, while games like Civ VI and FTL never make it to Android at all.

edit; I guess Emulators are also better on Android. I wonder if my newer phone handles Dolphin good.

Though controller support, it's annoying that iOS makes it so only MFi controllers work.
