How to Add ROMs to the Delta Emulator

The Delta emulator offers an easy way to play classic games on your iPhone or iPad without requiring a computer. In this article, we'll explore two primary methods for adding ROMs to the Delta app: through iTunes/Folder and the iOS Files app.

Method 1: Adding ROMs through iTunes/Folder

This method involves transferring files from your computer to your device using iTunes or a folder. First, connect your device to your computer and open iTunes. Then, select your device and click on 'File Sharing' under the 'Apps' tab. Locate the Delta app in the list of apps and drag and drop the ROM file into the app's file sharing window.

Method 2: Adding ROMs through iOS Files App

Alternatively, you can add ROMs directly to the Delta emulator using the iOS Files app. Open the Files app on your device, navigate to the location where your ROM files are stored, and select each file from the list. Find the location of said file within the Files browser, then drag and drop it into the Delta app.

Tips for Adding ROMs

When adding ROMs, be sure to extract any compressed files (such as ZIP) before transferring them to the Delta emulator. Some users have reported issues importing compressed files, so it's recommended to uncompress them first.

Homebrew Games and ROM Hacks

In addition to playing classic games, the Delta app also allows you to play homebrew games and ROM hacks. These are independently created games that can be downloaded from places like Homebrew Hub. Homebrew games and some ROM hacks are typically okay to share, but be sure to check the copyright laws before sharing any files.

Downloading BIOS Files

To get started with the Nintendo DS emulator on the Delta app, you'll need to download the necessary BIOS files. These files can be found online by searching for 'Nintendo DS emulator BIOS' or similar terms. Remember to select 'Save to Files' from the Share menu when downloading these files, as they are required for the emulator to work.

Adding Nintendo DS Games

Once you've downloaded the necessary files, adding them to the Delta emulator is easy. Open the app and tap the gear icon (Settings) in the top-right corner. Scroll down to 'Core Settings' and select 'Nintendo DS.' Then, open the Delta app and add the ROMs as described above.

In conclusion, adding ROMs to the Delta emulator is a straightforward process that can be completed through either iTunes/Folder or the iOS Files app. By following these steps, you can easily play classic games on your iPhone or iPad without requiring a computer. Remember to always check copyright laws before sharing any files, and happy gaming!
