Two days ago, popular GBA4iOS developer Riley Testut released a thank you video for its second anniversary since version 2.0′s release. After a showcasing of Nintendo games through the years and thanking everyone for their support, the video goes cryptic and introduces a new project in development by Riley.
To this day, there is little to no clue as to what this project will actually be (much less when it will be released), however there have been a few details leaked in OPERATIONiDROID’s latest video which you should watch above.
Things we definitely know so far about Delta:
It is definitely a new emulator application as its future domain home has already been registered under http://deltaemu.com by Riley. The word “emu” giving away its true purpose. As to what kind of emulator, nobody knows yet.
One person so far, while speculating, has gotten very close to predicting what this new app will be, according to Riley.
There is a visual clue hidden in Riley’s video that has yet to be discovered. Although, according to a tweet, the clue might not necessarily be visual. You’re welcome to tweet me or post your speculations below as to what this might be!
Riley, in a conversation with OPERATIONiDROID, discloses that:
Delta is a new app. You can think of it just like the Nintendo DS; it wasn't a new Gameboy, it was an entirely new thing. This is the same relationship between GBA4iOS and Delta.
There you have it! For those that are a bit perplexed as to what he meant, he did not confirm this new emulator to be a DS one, just that the parallels between the release of the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS closely resemble what he’s trying to do today with Delta from his previous GBA4iOS work.
As you know, Jon (the man behind the channel) and I have been working closely for years and have a close relationship with the developer so little details like this should come to no surprise from time to time. Make sure you follow both Riley and OPERATIONiDROID, along with myself (@mithical), for any new tidbits or exclusive details on this new, highly anticipated app.
