Avoid fake Delta apps on Android with these great emulators

Delta has shaken the iOS world to its core over the past few weeks and while there isn’t a perfect equivalent on Android, Google’s OS is still the best place to be if you want to emulate retro games.

Notably, Google doesn’t block apps from using Just In Time (JIT) programming to play games from more demanding consoles like GameCube, Wii and more.

While it looks clean, it’s not notably nicer than Lemuroid, and both apps seem to be running similar emulator cores and in-game interfaces anyway, so when you’re playing games they’re identical.

For $6.99, you can also upgrade to the Pro Tier to get a better-looking user interface, cloud saves, skins, and, crucially, multiplayer, which is something still in development for the Delta emulator on iOS.

DuckStation is free on Android and well-regarded when it comes to PS1 emulation, but in my opinion, Lemuroid has it beat since you don’t need to download bios files to start using it.

I haven’t used it much since I don’t have a lot of nostalgia for the PS2, but I did give it a test run and things seemed fairly smooth after the intel app setup.
