It's been a busy few months for apps and app stores on iOS, and the mini-revolution continues: the first third-party iOS app store has now gone live in the EU, while another Nintendo emulator for the iPhone has appeared (and seems to be sticking around).
All of this ongoing transformation is due to regulatory pressure Apple is facing over its iPhone gatekeeping. The most sweeping changes are in European Union countries, where the AltStore just went live (via AppleInsider) – if you're in one of those countries, you can install apps from outside of the official App Store for the first time ever.
