So many ads! I started it up, sat through two ads only to have it crash afterwards, then sat through another one when I started it up the second time, got to the actual game, tried to adjust settings and got slapped with another ad. Being forced to sit through 4 unskippable ads before I even had a chance to play a game is just ridiculous, even for a "free" app.

TRY MELONDS INSTEAD. This emulator is mid. The problem with it is that your games will crash quite a bit in the middle of playing. I was playing HeartGold. I've lost lots of progress because either the game became unplayable from a glitch and soft locked, it froze, or it crashed. It also has too many ads and audio issues. For anyone reading, the emulator MelonDS not only lets you fast forward in games, but it also fixes all these problems and lets you use nintendo WFC stuff and fan servers.

Can't even enter in the app, once I launch it I have an add, then I closes the app and redirect to G-play, then I reopen the app, then adds again.

Hi! We sincerely apologize for this frustrating issue. This is an unexpected ad overlay bug and definitely not intended. Please try clearing the app cache and reopening it. We are pushing a hotfix in the next update to resolve this loop permanently. Thanks for reporting!
