    Pokemon on Apple Watch before GTA6

    If you are this close to your phone to get the watch to work. Then you can just play in your phone. What a useless thing.

      You don’t have to be close to the phone for this app to work on watch. Only when you first transfer the roms over

    Seems like a cool gimmick, worth $2. I can see something like that coming in handy when standing in a long line for an attraction at a theme park, waiting at the DMV, or something similar where you don't have access to one of your retro handhelds or you don't want to emulate on your phone / doom scroll.

    Wow! It's really cool that you can play Pokémon on apple watch! Although it's a little tricky to operate on the small screen of the watch. I have developed the XGBA emulator, so let me try to optimize and adapt the watch operations on the XGBA emulator.🤩(Perhaps we could try some motion sensing recognition instead of tapping around on a small screen?)

    Emulation itself is not illegal. You can sell an emulator. You cannot sell the ROMs Nintendo can do nothing about emulators because they themselves do not violate copyright.
