The update makes control pad a joke
09/09/2024

Cory Burnsed
I had been playing Pokémon X for the past couple of weeks after buying the app, aside from the pretty regular, out of the nowhere crashes of the whole app, it was too pretty great. And the controls weren’t bad, until this new update. When I try to select the deep pad down button, and when I try to select the B button, it has an extreme delay, which makes you miss opportunities in playing the game. There is some form of overlay problem on the bottom half of the screen, I am playing on an iPhone SE 2022, but this is a joke. Plus every time I press a button now it has haptics that jiggle, and no one ask for that. And as far as I can tell, there’s no way to turn it off, which I really would love to do, it’s extremely irritating and distracting. Please fix the down button on the deep pad, and the B button delays and tell me how to remove these terrible haptics. If you’re going to do an update release, do through testing, I paid money for this, that means I paid money for you to do your job right. Which you are not.

Tomodachi life wont work

I am currently encountering significant challenges in attempting to open the game “Tomodachi Life” on my device. Despite having meticulously downloaded all the required files and diligently following the detailed installation instructions provided, I am still unable to get the game to function properly. Upon launching “Tomodachi Life,” the screen remains completely black, and the game is entirely unresponsive, which is quite frustrating. Interestingly, I have no issues accessing and playing other games on my device, indicating that the problem is specific to “Tomodachi Life.” I would greatly appreciate any guidance or assistance you could offer in helping me resolve this issue. If you are able to successfully address this problem, I am more than willing to upgrade my current rating from a 1 to a 4, as a token of my gratitude for your help. Furthermore, if you are also able to fix the glitchy behavior in the other games I have, I would be delighted to increase my rating from a 4 to a 5, reflecting my satisfaction with the overall experience. Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter. Lol don’t mind my funny writing but pls help

kinda works

edit june 2025: the app definitely works a lot better, i gave it 4 stars instead of 2 because it pretty much works now, but dislike the $5 price for an unfinished app.shouldn’t charge $5 for an app that only kinda works on an iphone 14. lots of performance issues. isn’t optimized at all. but i mean at least the games run (kinda). also the joystick location is stupid and annoying and doesn’t make for a very enjoyable experience. for some reason only half of the A button works too, and if you press too far to the right, the device gives you haptic feedback like you’re pushing it, but the input isn’t registered. i originally gave this app 3 stars but lowered it to 2 after playing for more than an hour and realized how frequent crashes are (every 5-10 minutes regardless of my settings). i will give this a better review if they fix the horrendous issues with this app, but until then, don’t buy this garbage.

I tried this app for 30 minutes and uninstalled it cause it appeared to be a half finished app. First of all the button layout and design are totally different for different emulations. For example the snes’s transparent and no letter buttons are good but some button isn’t working at all(like the middle one between select and start)(which I didn’t figure out the way to exit the emulation and switch game so I have to quit the app), and the 3DS buttons are completely different that they even are not at the similar size and aren’t transparent. Also u just made the settings for a few emulators, ant the exit is just completely quit the app which is annoying when I just wanna switch the game. I haven’t tried the other emulator but I think they’re also unfinished.Please improve the app cause this is really a great concept on design and ease of use!!!
