Provenance App Brings Nostalgic Arcade Fun to iOS

In case you missed it, developer Joseph Mattiello has launched a new emulator on mobile called the Provenance App, offering an iOS and tvOS multi-emulator frontend to help you play your childhood favorites from times long past. Nostalgia is a huge factor when it comes to these old-school experiences, and this iOS emulator seems to know exactly how to tap into that.

With the Provenance App, you can look forward to turning back time and reliving your glory days across a wide range of systems including Sega, Sony, Atari, Nintendo, and more. While you'll never be able to go back to simpler times in real life, you can, at the very least, revisit vintage arcade adventures from the comfort of your own home and in the palm of your hand.

Mobile emulators aren't exactly new, but having more options to choose from when it comes to oldies-but-goodies is always a plus. The Provenance App stands out with its support for a diverse array of gaming systems, making it a versatile choice for retro gaming enthusiasts.

This app goes beyond just emulation by offering a full-page game metadata viewer, where you can happily peruse all the release data you'll ever want, along with box artwork to really bring on the nostalgia. What's more, you can customize this metadata, replacing the text and images with your own to add a personal touch to your gaming experience.
