  • Retroarch.. does it actually work.
    I know everyone has their opinions about using paid emulators, but I bought a copy of RetroX on a black friday or Christmas sale or something like that several years ago for my shield and I'm very happy with it. I map an NFS share off my fileserver that holds all my roms, and I use a bluetooth xbone controller with it and have very few, if any, problems. Source: over 1 year ago

  • Anyone using a launcher?
    In my opinion the ideal situation would be a backend that any developer could build a frontend to that would suit their approach. For example there are many Retroarch frontends like Highscore, EmulationStation, etc. These all suit the needs for what some person may want. Source: about 1 year ago

  • Is there a user interface that will load all roms from NES up through GameCube?
    I use EmulationStation on a lot of devices. It would cover what you're looking for. Other frontends I like are RetroArch and Daijisho. Source: over 1 year ago
