- For other emulators that run on iPod hardware, see Emulators on iPod.
First released in 2001, the iPod would become an iconic brand of portable media players.
In 2006, Apple introduced "iPod click wheel game or iPod games" as their first step into the handheld console market, despite having some third-party companies like Square Enix, Hudson Soft, and Electronic Arts making games for the iPod Classic, it wasn't the huge hit they hoped it would be, a mix of awkward click wheel controls, controversy over pricing and the lack of an iPod-specific SDK resulted in a lack of interest from developers and a quick decline in game sales, Apple stopped releasing iPod Classic games in 2009 and removed them from the iTunes store in 2011, Around 50 games were released for the iPod Classic.
The iPod brand would later evolve into the iOS-based iPod Touch that was incompatible with all games and software made for previous generations of hardware.
