Almost perfect emulator,.well above the rest... I do have my issues with only being able to scan one rom at a time but that's a minor problem. Yes I know scanning the whole file is an option but that fails whenever I try and the notification is too small for the text saying what the problem is to show up... Something about not having installed the right software or whatever it said. Same as the GBC version of this emulator.

High quality indeed! I recommend having a folder inside of your downloads folder for your games for easy scanning. Games look good, run smoothly, and control great. Ads are out of the way, not annoying and only in the menu. Probably the best free emulator for mobile devices! However, there is an error when scanning a directory (folder) that has only cropped up recently. I can't fully see the error message as it's too long.

Really good, but kinda frustrating. The interface and functionality are almost flawless, but the control pad is incredibly annoying with a massive dead spot in the center. It can kinda be alleviated by making the pad smaller, but I still can't get it where it needs to be. Diagonals are nearly impossible. I think an octagon hit box would help tremendously. Also, the gun feature is useless. The mapping is off or something, it's virtually impossible to land a hit. Kudos for the rest though!
