You know when Dolphin emulates GBAs as separate windows ("The design is very human") for games like Zelda: Four Swords Adventures? And you have to squint at that tiny corner, and making the game fullscreen breaks everything.
Let me introduce to you GBA Orca.
It picks up those Dolphin GBA windows and streams each one to a phone over Wi-Fi or LAN. Player 2, 3, and 4 just grab their phone, open a URL, and they've got their GBA on their own screen.
- Windows only (Linux with wayland was too difficult...)
- Windows and Linux (X11 and Wayland)
- Local network only — no cloud, no accounts, no nonsense
- Free and open source
github.com/regitkin/dolphin-gba-orca
-WebRTC ready (low latency)
The code is messy af. There are a lot of improvements to do; But it does work and I use it to play with my friends. Now you can do it too!
