RetroArch Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• RetroArch cannot be found on the PlayStore, the first result is a copycat. It is just me?

  No, isn't just you. Every 64-bit phone haves the Play Store Retroarch available, the 32-bits no. But you can still download the 32-bit version on the Retroarch website. Source: 11 months ago

• Cause of the intrusion has been found and isolated. Sites are operational again.

  It was only the download links on retroarch.com on the Platforms page that got (briefly) redirected for a few hours. That should all be safe now. Source: 11 months ago

• Malicious download links?

  Yes, only the retroarch.com and libretro.com websites were affected. Source: 11 months ago

• Recent update from supposed hackers

  I went to retroarch.com and it said "discord.gg/evaderz is big haxors" its unrespectable. Source: 11 months ago

• Latest RetroArch on Xiaomi Mi box

  I've got installed RetroArch Plus from Google Play on my Xiaomi Mi box 4k and I want to update it to the latest version. I downloaded apk from retroarch.com but when I use apk installer to update it say is not compatible. I removed version from Google Play but fresh install 1.15.0 is not compatible too. I tried 32 and 64 version. What I'm doing wrong? Is any other AndroidTV version? Source: 11 months ago

• I know its an emulator but...

  If it's still giving you issues, try using Retroarch and the SNES9X core. You can install it directly through Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1118310/RetroArch/) and use the Big Picture mode (since it looks like you're going into a TV?) or as a stand-alone (https://retroarch.com/ , you can add the stand-alone into Steam as well for Big Picture mode). I think Steam might handle controllers a little better... Source: 12 months ago

• Why the heck is retroarch running so badly? All of a sudden it just started running literally EVERYTHING, no matter the game or console super poorly, and iirc I didn’t change any of the settings. Steam says it’s up to date too and it doesn’t have any other problems with my other games.

  Have you tried using the non-steam Version? You can download it on https://retroarch.com. Source: about 1 year ago

• How can I get PCSX ReArmed on V90 to read chd files

  If you want to run RetroArch on your V90, you can grab the V90 version of RetroArch from retroarch.com. RetroArch has a bit of a learning curve and is not as easy to use as the default emulators. Source: about 1 year ago

  Oh if you ever want to try the ds version you can get the rom from here https://vimm.net/vault/19184 and play it with retroarch here https://retroarch.com/ using the desume ds emulator core. Source: over 1 year ago

• 32 or 64 bit for Android?

  If possible, you should sideload the apk from retroarch.com instead of using the one(s) from the Play Store, as we cannot update the one in the Play Store until we have full compliance with Google's "scoped storage" requirements. Source: about 2 years ago

• How To Play Dos Games From GOG With PS4 Controller? (Using DS4 Windows)

  I don't know how well these games specifically run on it, I don't have then, but my go-to app for retro gaming with a controller is RetroArch. I've used the DOSBox-Pure core there to play some DOS games with controller, worked really well. You can zip the game folder and load in RetroArch just like you would load a ROM in a console emulator. Source: about 2 years ago

• unable to install RetroArch on my Sony Smart TV

  I tried install RetroArch from play store (V1.9.14) but failed, I tried both the normal and plus version . The apk can be downloaded but installation failed at near 100%.

Thanks a lot. Source: over 2 years ago

• Does anyone have the final fantasy iv pixel remastered apk?

  My honest opinion is , Instead of apks and mods, download an emulator like retorarch or Drastic(paid mod) , and download the rom(I don't know if I'm allowed to link it here, just search on YouTube , there are many good ones) for the game and play it on there , much better experience and performance imo.

• Issues involving Save States made on Android > PC

  It gets confusing when you compare builds/cores between the retroarch.com installers and the ones you get from the Play Store, and build/core versions seem to matter. The Information panel in the main menu is your friend for researching this scenario. Source: about 3 years ago
