Great
Works flawlessly with gba games at any fast forward speed but ds games can be a bit janky if you speed them up, 2x times is the sweet spot for ds games if they’re turn based

RetroArch Reviews
Amazing!
Everything works perfect for me, no errors encountered at all. I will give it 5/5 if/when PS2 and/or GameCube support is added!
How do I get the Sega Saturn emulator on IOS mobile?
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
Plz do it…
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.
Good but
3ds , ps2 , gamecube … Edit: thumbnails satured
super !
no lag so far and local netplay. ❤️ and 🏆 to the libretro team ! oh, and that interlaced halation is an absolute masterpiece of a shader !!!!
THE BEST EMULATOR
