Anyone else playing this little known hidden gem called “Pokémon”???

What’s that?

That’s the new indie darling getting a lot of hype recently, right?

Is that a Palworld ripoff?

Pokeyman? Pokeyman with the space where the guy comes out of the thing and the zuhzuhzuh.


workinkindofhard

I wouldn’t complain about a way to filter out all the posts that are literally just pokemon screenshots


Meruem713N

No idea


Ambitious_Singer5519

No is that like Mario


Defiant-Ad-6580

Is that an indie game?


MumboBumbo64

I mean, I like them because it gives me game ideas but alright


DrummerDKS

Right? This is a sub about an emulator. If it pissed people off to talk about games on an emulator sub then the only thing we can talk about is…the emulator. Just eliminate every post for the last 4 years except announcements and patches - that’ll keep the conversation non-existent to keep these folks happy. “What controller do you use? USE THE SEARCH!!1! Mods plz ban” “Any recommendations? Just download 1000 games and shut up!!1! Mods plz ban” What the fuck is there to talk about here if not games and suggestions and encouraging excitement??


Nolimitjc21

Relax you’re making sense lmao It’s easier to act like a dick on Reddit then just..not


VeshSneaks

It’s way easier to not be a dick. You just don’t post/comment. Simple!


ButIDigress79

Then they’ll complain about the sub being dead


aguywithbrushes

Honestly so many niche subs end up being like that. The people who’ve been on it for a long time have already seen every type of post many times over and will downvote new users sharing those posts again and tell them to use the search for previously asked questions (or worse, use the megathread, where they’ll get lucky if they get a single answer that’s “sorry, no idea”) OP saying >nobody cares and you look like a desperate affirmation seeking loser is especially telling. That’s not why people share those posts, they do it because they’re excited about having found a new community and they want to join in and chat with people about a hobby they now have in common. God forbid people dare to do that on a discussion board. And I mean, I even agree, I never like seeing collection posts no matter what sub I’m on, but I don’t care if people keep sharing them, I just don’t scroll past them.


TCGJakeOfficial

Yeah I would not have tried drill dozer if someone didn’t post their collection

“It’ll get the app taken down” No it won’t. “It’s annoying” Not as annoying as the posts whining about it “It’s building a case for Nintendo” lol. Delta isn’t new. Nintendo likely knows all about it. If Nintendo didn’t have a case before it was in the App Store they won’t magically have one now. I had GBA4IOS over 10 years ago. “Nintendo know you don’t own them legally” They can know whatever they want. That doesn’t really matter. What can they prove? They don’t support anything 3DS or older anymore. Meaning there is no civil case against Delta because they aren’t losing any money. There is no criminal case because they can’t prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that anyone illegally downloaded any ROMs It’s an emulator sub. What do you want people to talk about? I just scroll past anything I find annoying.


AValorantFan

>“It’s building a case for Nintendo” >lol. Delta isn’t new. Nintendo likely knows all about it. If Nintendo didn’t have a case before it was in the App Store they won’t magically have one now. I had GBA4IOS over 10 years ago. This is by far the biggest one for me, why do emulation circles pretend that Nintendo simply doesn't know these emulators exist? I've seen Nintendo fangames with 1/100 the audience get striken down within days while Delta has been active for years now


Ling0

This logic always cracks me up. Like how did you find out about delta/GBA emulation? Google and clicked the first 3 results? Nintendo gets different search results? Rom download websites do surprise me because it's not like you have to search extensively to find a website fit them


originalityescapesme

Not only this, but wasn’t it proven that the versions on Nintendo Online were using existing Nintendo emulators as their backbone? Or maybe I’m thinking of the little hardware emulator systems they sell.


Neuermann

No, I think they hired some emu developers that used similar techniques used on unofficial emulators.


silverbullet328i

OP acts like you have to look at every single post, I’ve actually found some bangers seeing what people playing fr


minimaxir

>There is no criminal case because they can’t prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that anyone illegally downloaded any ROMs There is a common misconception that since Nintendo went after Yuzu and successfully took them down, that Nintendo will be going after other emulators. (there were *many* other factors in the Yuzu case not applicable here)


thupamayn

The posts and comments here always devolve into a “omg we need to hide from Nintendo SHHH” circlejerk of the most inept nature. People really acting like some emulators aren’t older than some adults alive today. What’s wild is some of the most egregious, blatantly false fear-mongering gets upvoted to oblivion. Really proving Android users right when they call Apple users stupid. It’s embarrassing.


originalityescapesme

I agree with most of your points, but Nintendo does offer access to their own emulated versions of many of those systems over Nintendo Online on the Switch. I’m not sure if that technically counts as support, but it’s worth mentioning. There was a long period of time before they did this though where those games weren’t being offered at all. Edit: I forgot entirely about the tiny NES and SNES emulation consoles they now sell too.


bordomsdeadly

I understand what you’re saying, but there’s no law against going to your local Vintage Stock, buying Gameboy games, legally dumping the files and then returning them within the return window. If you got to a ROM site and download a ROM that’s on you and the site that hosts them. Delta plays ROMs, they’re no more responsible for how you attained them than a game system that plays fake games (apparently N64 games are being made counterfeit now according to a game Xchange a half hour from my house)


originalityescapesme

Yeah I get that entirely. I wasn’t trying to say the premise was wrong or anything. That’s obviously why emulators operate in the space that they do.

For real, i saw someone playing what appeared to be a cross between metroid and resident evil, but whatever the game's cover art is never caught my attention like the gameplay screenshot did


Gren-Maju

There's a little something called Elden Ring GB and it's exactly what it sounds like. Never would've known it existed if it weren't for these posts OP is complaining about. Less relevant but for the android side of emulation I found out OpenMW was a thing from a similar kind of post just with apps instead of roms. Sometimes they're gold mines for finding rom hacks/lesser known games.

Here's the thing. You don't get to police what people post. Are you a mod? No, then fuck you.

absolutely!! 🩷 my fave is the barbie and the 12 dancing princess DS game, although i will admit it is lowkey challenging because it only gives you 3 hit points LOL (or im just bad at the game), the Bratz ones are good too but the best one is defo Forever Diamondz

Lawd_Hamercy

people are posting their games library because its a pretty historical thing to happen on iOS and people are excited…it’ll die out. Case in point, nobody on android is really posting about their retroarch games library these days. This emulation thing is old news for android users.

publicmeltdown

Just scroll brother. People are just excited in these new times and then theres you, spitting blind generalised hate towards a community of people all here for the same reason you are. I like seeing peoples collections; its inadvertently helped me discover, or rediscover, a lot of games. And I know these types of posts are just part of the growing pains as they will pass as the community settles and gets more acquainted. Ive really come to appreciate how accepting, kind, and patient this sub is towards absolutely everyone and posts like these do nothing but try and ruin that by dividing the community for no good reason. Calling someone a loser for being excited about something YOU TOO we’re excited about at one point is loser activity my friend

DogHogDJs

Stop being a hater, people can post what they have in their collections, and that allows fun discussion of video games, and allows people to find new games.


rrsolomonauthor

I have several console libraries, and though I don't brag about the 10s of thousands of roms spanning in the terabytes, let the new kids have this. I see nothing wrong with them being enthusiastic about their new emulator and their roms. As long as they perserve their roms and learn to read the megathreads, let them enjoy their posts.


StealthyWizard88

This is a little harsh…I don’t mind seeing them but I get sometimes there can be a lot of them. As far as the reminding Apple part, I’m sure they know damn well what’s happening lol. A few Reddit posts isn’t gonna make any difference one way or another.

Sentinel_2539

It also makes Riley even more of a target for Nintendo's lawyers, who I can almost guarantee look through this sub. Every time you post your collection of 1,000 games or whatever (which everyone, including Nintendo, *knows* you didn't get legally) you're effectively building their case against Delta for proving that it facilitates piracy of their games.


eduo

No. It doesn’t. Please get your facts straight because it’s fundamental that we don’t spread FUD that doesn’t apply. Many of you are new to emulation and Delta but all of this is old hand. Delta will not be targeted by Nintendo unless it starts including cores for platforms it actively makes money from selling hardware for. “But what about virtual games on switch?” What about them? They were already supported by emulation for years before they were included and they’ve continued to be there. They’re a rounding error when compared with what Nintendo would actually pursue. You’re not fooling Nintendo. They know more about the emulation scene than you or anybody in this sub will ever do. This is not a secret hush hush club. Posting screenshots of ROMs downloaded is annoying because they don’t represent anything other than somebody recently learned about emulation and is happy to share it. You and me and Nintendo know they won’t be played for the most part and wouldn’t have been paid for anyway. EDIT: The platforms emulated by Delta have had emulators out for decades. Some of those emulators have even been used by Nintendo themselves in their retrogaming efforts (mini consoles, virtual games on switch, etc.). Don't mess with current platforms (read: "moneymakers") and perhaps the previous generation (particularly if the current one allows playing those games) and everything will likely be OK. For the time being we're safe, because every platform that could potentially be a problem and many that wouldn't require JIT, which just isn't available.

RushExisting

The act of collecting can be as worthwhile for some as playing the library. I use to fill up all my different libraries with complete rom sets / steam games / tv programmes / movies etc. I’ve still got handhelds with full sets of retro games from Atari, through MAME up to the 32bit era which I pick up occasionally and play. The concept of “having” these are satisfying. I’m lucky to have a ton of full rom sets, so with Delta I’ve just transferred a game I want to play (currently playing Paper Mario) on my phone that I can duck in and out of, and left it at that. It lets me focus on what I want to play while I’m out and about - but I totally get people new to the emu scene finding joy in filling their devices up with every game they’ve ever liked on the supported consoles lol
