Wer es nicht sxhafft, ein Spiel zu starten, hat von Smartphone oder pc absolut null Ahnung. Leichter geht es nicht mehr. Installieren, Rom laden, keine 3 Minuten und das Game läuft 👍🏻👍🏻 Klare Empfehlung

Super

Funktioniert einwandfrei! Bester Emulator!

Funktioniert leider nicht so wie am PC!

**** :P on

Die App ist hier auf iOS noch ziemlich instabil. Leider fast keine Spiele spielbar, weil die App entweder einfriert oder komplett abstürzt.

Bester Emulator…

Endlich Retroarch für das iPhone. Was soll man dazu sagen, es gibt nichts vergleichbares. Wer sich damit auskennt, der liebt es. Wer nicht, soll einfach nachlesen, gibt unzählige Anleitungen online.

Schön, dass es dich gibt.

Nur leider ist RetroArch ein Abbild von dem wie ein App nicht aussehen sollte. Am Ende kommt man zwar irgendwie an den Start eines Spiels, aber die App ist sowas von überfrachtete mit Optionen und Zeig, was keiner braucht. Ich hab es ohne Hilfe aus dem Internet nach 30 Minuten immer noch nicht geschafft ein Spiel zu starten. Wenn es schon so viele Optionen gibt, sollten diese wenigstens durchdacht, verständlich oder versteckt sein. Im Hauptmenü braucht es das alles nicht…nur eine Auswahl an Titeln und einen Start Knopf. Aber nun ja…mir scheint als liebt es der Entwickler, einen riesen Haufen an Optionen zu haben.

How do I get the Sega Saturn emulator on IOS mobile?

AnonymousAVGN on

United States

I’ve tried to place the appropriate BIOS files in the system folder: sega_100.bin (SATURN JP BIOS) mpr-17933.bin (SATURN US/EU BIOS) mpr.18811-mx.ic1 (The King of Fighters ‘95 ROM Cartridge) mpr-19367-mx.ic1 In order to get the Sega Saturn emulator running, this is what I think I have to do: Load Content > Start Directory > ~/Documents/RetroArch > system. When I reach the system folder / document, the only emulator available is scummvm.ini. I don’t know if this is a error or what, but I don’t know what to do. If the developer(s) are available, please help me!

Learning curve, but honestly pretty easy to use

I absolutely love this app. I won’t lie, there is a slight learning curve. But I was able to figure out how to get a game working without even looking up any guides or tutorials. Don’t get me wrong, once I watched a tutorial, the app opened up in ways I didn’t expect. Have fun with it, it’s very rewarding.

I wish apply 1.32.1 mednafen core on retroarch

It’s okay

It’s okay Not a big dan of the controls and the way to get to the games is confusing

Apple TV version will delete your files randomly!!

Retroarch is great overall. The only request is that there is a way to back-up / sync or save files via iCloud. The Apple TV itself is fairly user-unfriendly.
