★★★★★ Анарбек Анарбек · May 30, 2025

★★★★☆ fahdad1234 does gaming and make peoples days better · Feb 20, 2021
You are missing 1 star because unlike the sega genises xl emulator you cant run rom hacks otherwise perfect emulator
★★★★★ GreenBoy 6607 · Apr 1, 2022
Amazing for SNES, but there has been a bug I've been expressing it makes me lose my downloaded SNES games. Otherwise, this is the best for SNES gaming besides the SNES.
★☆☆☆☆ Gregory Smith · Jul 27, 2023
This sucks dude, I can't even play my favorite roms, half of the roms I have are boring and just lame, I want something new besides this boring stuff, I'm deleting this app.
★☆☆☆☆ Modified B13 · Feb 26, 2020
The emulators frame rate is off, and you can't adjust the controls. Makes most games - Super Metro id; unplayable.
★☆☆☆☆ N/A N/A (MsTBuck) · Mar 6, 2026
App crashed as soon as you open it and I have the flip 7 phone
★☆☆☆☆ Irsan Kief Delavin · Mar 7, 2022
Delete it causes you can't save who thinks this is good atlese my boy lets you save
★★☆☆☆ Darnell B · Dec 1, 2023
This is my preferred app, but unfortunately the frame rate drops horribly when connecting a Bluetooth device like my controller.
