Riley Testut, the developer of the popular Nintendo emulator for iPhones and iPads, Delta Emulator announced in September 2024 that the emulator would soon receive an online multiplayer feature. With the latest beta update, the emulator keeps has delivered on that promise. In a post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the official AltStore team page shared that the new Delta Emulator v1.7b4 is now available on both AltStore PAL and AltStore Classic to Patreon members.

The latest Delta Emulator beta update brings the much-awaited online multiplayer feature for Nintendo DS titles. In a follow-up post, the team also announced that they wanted to keep the multiplayer setup as simple as possible. For that, they have removed the requirement to manually change the DNS settings to connect to the third-party WFC servers. All you need to do is choose from the three popular WFC servers available within the Delta Emulator app Settings and you are all set.

The team also noted that once the update is out of beta, the multiplayer feature will be included in Delta v1.7 for users who have downloaded the Delta Emulator from the App Store on their iPhones and iPads. The update also brings new game controller skins, a new context menu, the ability to take screenshots using game controllers or skins, and more. Here's the complete changelog:
