Comments on GBA Emulator: Play Retro Games for Android

★★★★☆ Steve Frank · Nov 1, 2026
Good game library and was able to connect my controller but the sound is all glitchy and stuttering. Has the games I'm looking for.
★★★★★ Jonah Pantoja · Sep 5, 2026
I like how it already has games unlike most emulators, but I wish it had PlayStation games and 2010 games
★★★★★ Gine · Sep 22, 2026
Ts game is so much better than gba games
★☆☆☆☆ John Williams · Oct 1, 2026
Love the fake comments on here... first thing the app does is throw an ad at my face. If this is an emulator why is it asking me what genre of games I like? It's illegal to come packed with any ROMs unless its some kinda homebrew title... unfortunately, I will nvr know since im asked to set up a subscription... right after it throws an ad at me... oddly enough, I tried another fake emulator app a few days ago that has the exact same setup as this. Throws ads and wants money to do hell knows what
★☆☆☆☆ Philip Destephano · Oct 26, 2026
I wanted to play Pokémon Emerald, and it wouldn't let me get past the press start screen it just kept reloading and a couple of other games, too, so I deleted it
★☆☆☆☆ Jove Thoas · Oct 29, 2026
GBA emulator is basically unplayable unless you pay for premium, since you only get one free game a day. The app feels super sloppy and isn't fun to use at all, plus the only free skin didn't even work, so I had to stick with the default. It’s full of pop-ups constantly begging for money, and the controls feel really choppy and unpolished. I’d honestly rather just pay for a different app. Do better guys.
