Ratings and reviews

For the most part, it works great with pretty much all of my favorite old school SNES games. However, I do have a complaint about the most recent update: the change to the savestate/autosaves function. Before, it was much easier and more convenient to access from the main menu, and I could easily disable autosaves. Now, I have to go into an extra sub-menu to use the manual saves, and it doesn't seem to be possible to disable autosaves in favor of on-demand manual saves. Please revert this.

Works about as well as the desktop version I've used for over a decade — it's missing a few features, like being able to exclude graphic layers, but I consider this only a minor issue. The virtual controls aren't great for action games due to lack of tactile feedback, but that's a problem with the medium, not the app. On the flip side, the sound renders FAR better on the mobile app than the PC app — far more authentic to the original SNES.

This is a very good emulator for SNES games, and I highly recommend this. My only problem is I find it rather complicated to start up a game. If you have a bunch of ROMs downloaded, and if you want to find them, you have to create a new folder on your phone storage, you cant Auto find ROMs. Also, the main issue I have is there is NO menu. You can't select your games with ease. But its AMAZING. The xbox controls are the same as switch online, and you have PLENTY of options! A great emulator!
