Now you can Koreacatch 'em all on your Apple Watch.
Not to be confused with Pokémon Gofor Apple Watch, a new project by developer Gabriel O'Flaherty-Chan turns your Apple Watch into a mostly functioning Game Boy through the magic of emulation.
The program is named "Giovanni" after the villain in the original Pokémon games. All of the code for the emulator is open source, so others can build on it.

"To help address this, I made my own game a few months ago (a 3D RPG), but obviously it still didn’t address the bigger issue.
He then decided to make an emulator, which would make a lot more games accessible on the watch.
O'Flaherty-Chan said he had to make some trade-offs between performance and framerate, which resulted in a somewhat slow but fairly useable result. He was also inspired by some Facebook developers who got Doomrunning on watchOS a few years ago.

The project is just a prototype for now, and it's very unlikely that Apple will ever allow an app of this kind to be part of the official App Store. While you can find emulators on Google Play, Apple typically keeps them off the App Store—likely because they encourage piracy.
Still, Giovanni is an amazing proof of concept and hopefully an inspiration for developers to do more with the Apple Watch.
