GAMEBABY consists of two parts that attach to your phone. As a phone case, both parts attach to the back. As a controller, flip the lower part to the front, and your phone instantly becomes a retro gaming handheld. Enjoy gaming on-the-go with GAMEBABY’s versatile design. So if you are a gamer on mobile this is certainly something for you to check out.
GAMEBABY supports GB, GBC, GBA, and NES button layouts, with custom emulator skins for perfect compatibility across various handheld console layouts right on your iPhone 17 pro or other compatible phones. You will need to download apps to get this case to work and it may take two apps depending on your region for me in Ireland I had to download two apps being altspace and delta emulator and delta being the main app where you can add skins and game ROMS in order to use the case to its full potential.
GAMEBABY needs no charging, Bluetooth pairing, or complex setup. Just flip the lower part to the front anytime, anywhere to start gaming and a first I have seen in such phone case offerings where a charge is needed via phone or bluetooth connection so this is a simple slap on and get playing with no faffing around to some extent.
How it works
- Accessory: The GAMEBABY is a two-piece case that acts as a physical controller when the phone is not in use as a regular case.
- Physical buttons: The bottom piece of the case contains physical buttons that operate by pressing on the screen to mimic touch inputs.
- Game compatibility: It works with the Delta emulator to play games from systems such as NES, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance.
- Emulator setup: To use the physical buttons, you need to download the Delta emulator from the App Store and a custom skin that aligns the on-screen controls with the physical buttons on the case.
Overall it is not your typical phone case but ads more to the usual slap on and go it is functional and retro and enables you to open a new world of gaming on your iPhone.
