Update: That didn’t last long. Bimmy is no longer available on the App Store, which may or may not have anything to do with the NES portion of the title.
Update 2: Actually, from the developer, Tom Salvo: “I removed the app out of fear. No one came to me.”
Bimmy NES Emulator is one of the latest game emulation apps to officially hit the App Store. NES may or may not refer to the Nintendo Entertainment Console.
The application is made for iPhone and iPad and is compatible with Apple silicon Mac computers. Bimmy is currently available for free after a short launch for 99¢ today.
According to the app’s description, Bimmy is “a simple emulator that helps in the development and testing of home-made games. Play public domain ROMs and test your own creations!” Bimmy integrates the Files app to load ROMs and support game controllers and save states.
As part of an ongoing policy update, Apple recently gave developers the green light to submit emulation apps for distribution through the App Store. Apple has also changed its policy on allowing game streaming services on the iPhone and iPad. Both changes are applicable globally and are not limited to the EU like other updates.
