Are you fucking kidding me? I was looking forward to sideloading so I could play some emulators on the last iOS device I have. Well at least that‘s my last iPad since the new one is complete trash.
I have an iPad mini that was given to me as a gift last year. It’s a lovely little device, it really is. But I don’t know why it exists at this point. I mean, it’s cool for reading pdfs, browsing the internet on something bigger than my iPhone, but I’d say 90% of what I use it for is as another screen for my work Mac. It’s cool n’all, but it sure as shit ain’t £750 of cool.
I never saw a good use for them at all, but people seem to love the minis. I think they might be big with older folks who don’t want a large tablet, but have shit eye sight and want a couch device that’s easier to read than a phone. That’s my theory anyway.
If you aren’t needing any emulators past GBA/DS/SNES, afterplay.io lets you play your ROMs on an unjailbroken iOS device using Safari
Honestly I’d love a GCN emulator if you know of a good one for iOS. I use Dolphin on my laptop, but I’m not always able to be on my laptop.
Sorry, I don’t mess with AltStore/TrollStore so I’m not super knowledgeable with those options. If you do run AltStore on a Mac, I think you are then able to use JIT which you need to be able to run GCN emulation via dolphin. And I think there are also ways to use JIT over the cloud but I’m not familiar with those methods.
