About this game

THOUSANDS OF RETRO ADVENTURES, ON EVERY SCREEN! 🎮

Bring your collection together, discover homebrew games through the built-in catalog, and turn your phone, tablet, or Android TV into a retro center built around the way you play.

🌐 PLAY ONLINE WITH EMULAITOR HUB

Create a room from a running game and play online with other people. EmulAItor Hub streams video and audio, receives guest controls, and syncs player controls seamlessly. Share the room code and configure a name and password to bring the group together.

📱 TURN UP TO FOUR PHONES INTO ANDROID TV CONTROLLERS

Pair phones or tablets by scanning a QR code and use them as touch controllers on the same Wi-Fi network. The controller layout automatically adapts to the system in use and keeps a manual fallback selector.

🎮 MORE THAN 20 CLASSIC SYSTEMS

Enjoy a wide range of systems including NES, SNES, Game Boy, GBA, Genesis, PlayStation, PSP, Nintendo 64, Nintendo DS, Arcade, PC Engine, Atari, WonderSwan, and many more.

☁️ CONTINUE ON ANOTHER DEVICE

Its a great emulator, but one annoying thing is the download time for NDS and above. It is VERY slow, and can't download if you exit the app or switch off your phone. But overall great app!

Thank you for your review, Boikhutso! 😄 As noted across the app, the catalog downloads from third parties, so we have no control over that platform or its speed. If it doesn't perform as you'd like, you can legitimately download your ROMs on your own from wherever you see fit and add them to your games folder. Enjoy the classics! 🕹️

Thanks, Yves! But it's just one guy behind EmulAItor doing all the work solo! 😄 To set up your gamepad: pair it in Android Bluetooth settings, then open EmulAItor → Settings → Controller settings to map it. Dreamcast is not supported yet (huge task for a solo dev!), but I never say never. Enjoy the classics! 🕹️I will reply to your email. 📧

The app itself works but I have a complaint. I can't use 2 buttons at the same time and have to instead; only press one to work. I can't jump and shoot/look down and shoot in Contra. Hopefully that gets fixed soon.

EmulAItor already supports simultaneous button presses on physical controllers and touch controls. On screen, the small dots between buttons press both at once. If a physical controller cannot do it, the limitation is in that controller, not the app.

What’s new

Improvements to free play with ads:
- Retry an ad when opening a game without selecting the game again.
- If an ad fails during a session, retry it or exit while the game remains paused.
- More reliable rewards and clearer messages while ads load.
