Ratings and reviews

I've been using this since it became RetroAchievements compatible, and this emulator works wonderfully as it is. Absolutely amazing emulator, highly reccomend! My only complaint is the lack of tilt controlls, but given that that's on the roadmap for this app, I'm willing to wait however long it takes to play games like "WarioWare: Twisted!" the way it was meant to be played!

it was perfect it worked like a charm all I had to do was install the application and the rom and enter the files!

app has worked great for me so far. No issues saving or basic feature being locked behind paywalls. clean up woth good customization. would highly recommend for anyone looking to emulate
