*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hi and welcome to episode 115 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! Today, we're diving into the topic of emulation and how Nintendo is handling the new Delta emulation app on the Apple App Store. Delta coming to Apple has changed the conversation around emulation a bit since it's made it feel more mainstream and accessible - something Nintendo is not going to be happy about, but what can they actually do about it? Let's dig into this topic! Also in this episode, we have a special guest joining us, Stealth40K who is a prominent member of the Nintendo fan community. We chat with Stealth about the state of Nintendo's relationship with fans and what they can do better as Nintendo prepares for the launch of Switch 2. We've played A TON of indie games this week after the Indie Game Showcase and we tell you all about the ones we loved in the games we're playing segment. We wrap it all up with questions from our wonderful Patreon community. All this and more is coming right up!

| 0:01.0 | We are going to be looking at this explosion of interest around emulation and what Nintendo might be feeling, and if they maybe have lost the battle with this already before it even started? |
| 0:23.7 | Yeah, it was big news when this emulator came out on the app store for Apple devices. |
| 0:29.2 | And that's bringing emulation to a whole new audience. |
| 0:33.2 | And Nintendo can't be happy with this. |

| 0:39.3 | So we're going to look into this a bit more deeply. |

| 1:13.1 | Now that Switch 2 is a bit delayed. |
| 1:15.6 | And it was a really fun discussion. |
