Do we know if these emulators will support JIT? JIT has always been prohibited on iOS (which is why there are no browsers other than Safari - Firefox and Chrome on iOS are just a Safari WebView plus a crappy interface on top).
Even when sideloading emulators, you only get JIT by paying for a special developer license or using exploits on very specific iOS versions.
Without JIT, sure, go nuts emulating the NES... But forget about anything more demanding than a GameCube, or using this to run a VM or something.
Actually Altstore has AltJIT which works on all iOS versions altstore supports but requires you to be connected to the same network as a computer running altstore.
UTM (which is based on QEMU) is already available on iOS.
Sadly jail breaking is required after iOS 11
For what?
For for UTM
No I believe it also works with altstore (though I haven’t personally tried it).
Hmm. I’ll give that a shot.
