★★★★★ Everybody's Best Friend · Jan 4, 2023
Decent remote. The only nes emulator I've found, after 7 apps, with a decent remote.
★★★★☆ Tanuj Kumar · Jul 31, 2023
One star less because you have to load single game. It can't read all roms in a device like other emulators
★☆☆☆☆ Gerald Lamontagne · Jun 9, 2024
Works only once, then it fails to open....
★☆☆☆☆ Jason Micha · Jul 3, 2023
App wanted access to my camera and microphone. Did not agree to the tos and Uninstalled.
