Emulation has been the go-to way for users to revisit their childhood memories and play the beloved games of yesteryears. Additionally, Apple’s decision to allow emulation software like Delta on its platform has finally made it accessible to millions of users. And although playing retro games on iPhones is satisfying for many, it’s safe to assume that the ultimate nostalgia trip involves reliving these classics on a TV with a controller. Luckily, the Delta emulator app supports this capability, and we’ll guide you through the process of playing these games on your smart TV.

Like many apps, the Delta emulator app supports AirPlay, allowing it to cast content to any AirPlay-enabled device. This means users can cast their Delta game ROMs on a TV and MacBook. Additionally, for an immersive experience, we recommend using a controller, which enhances gameplay significantly. Here’s how to connect your iPhone to the TV:

  1. Ensure your iPhone and TV are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
  2. Select the cast option on your iPhone’s Control Center.
