Will we finally get Nintendo games on iOS and OS X?

The only way to enjoy Nintendo games is through emulators on iOS devices, even without jailbreaking . But what video game lovers, gamers, or anyone who enjoyed Nintendo games as a child have always wanted is to own the games officially on an iPhone or iPad.

This could be closer, although it's not the first time Nintendo has registered a patent related to mobile emulators. This time, TechCrunch confirms that the company is more interested in bringing a technology geared towards mobile emulators and finally leaving ROMs aside.

In the past, many Nintendo game emulator apps have reached the App Store , but Apple does not allow such content, causing great nostalgia among fans of classic games.

For now, Nintendo's plans seem to be focused on mobile technology , which it has been neglecting for many years. This could be beneficial not only for the company but also for developers and App Store revenue , for example, as it is the store that generates the most sales in app downloads.

The patent has already been approved, however, there are no further details about the start of any project. But what we can be even more certain of is that the arrival of Nintendo games could be even closer.
