Ratings and reviews

Probably one of the best standalone emulator out there. Robert is doing god's work by maintaining this excellent emulator for years now, the sheer amount of work being put here from 2013 is astonishing. If you don't want to deal with retroarch convoluted and confusing interface and would rather want to go straight into playing any snes games without any hassle, then this is for you. It's not perfect, there's still audio lag and cut problems here and there but on it's own, this is still the best.

Very pleased with this emulator; I am using it on a cheap Android TV streaming box. The only problem I had was the joycon not working. This wasn't the fault of the emulator. Apparently in Android 11, using accessibility options messes with android gaming controllers. Once I disabled them all (key mapper, custom shut down button, etc) everything on the controller began working as it should.

I'm not sure why no one mentions the audio lag. I've checked with different settings and from a Google pixel xl snapdragon 821 upto a snapdragon 8 gen 3 samsung s24 ultra the issue is still there. Ive heard different reasons but this is supposedly cause it's accurate but the snes9x current core on retroarch doesn't have this issue.

What's new
