Retro gaming emulators on Apple’s App Store have been gaining traction ever since the company began allowing them back in April. The latest addition to this category is an emulator that brings back a failed console from Nintendo’s past — and it’s available on Apple Vision Pro, too.
VirtualFriend, developed by Adam Gastineau, is available to download for free on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Vision Pro, and lets you play Virtual Boy games on Apple's devices. The emulator has been in development since December, and Gastineau revealed that the app spent three weeks in Apple’s App Review process before being made available. VirtualFriend is straightforward to use — the first screen prompts you to find a game on your device through Apple’s Files app. Once you do, the game loads into the emulator, ready to play.
