Comments on GBA Emulator: Retro Gameboy for Android

★★★★★ Austin Burson · Oct 11, 2026

I know everyone seems to be complaining about prices and ads and whatever else. Seems like they just want to have something to complain about and be seen in some way. My experience is that I paid a little bit of money to have a heck of a nostalgic experience playing the games I did when I was growing up. They have the same sounds, the same controls and the graphics are absolutely insane (obviously terrible to mimic the retro feel, but that's what makes them awesome!). Recommended for sure!!!

★★★★☆ Marlena Trisa · Oct 14, 2026

Only thing I don't like is that you can't turn off the auto hold on buttons, and it glitches and gets stuck on the button that is on auto hold. Wish there was more to do to change layouts of the controller on the screen

★★★★★ Luc McDonald · Oct 2, 2026

D-pad is a little wonky from side-to-side, but other than that works perfect

★★★★★ Elijah Aguilar · Oct 13, 2026
