Pretty good!

Great Emulation! It has a bunch of great options that can add some really cool features in the future. Only issue I have right now is the static/pop sounds in old games like Donkey Kong,Pac-Man,Track & Field. So these games I have to play with the sound off. Definitely a fun/easier alternative than Retroarch with a ton of potential.

Edit: As mentioned in my GenZD review, your game mode is not working. There is no pop up that says ‘game mode on’ like other supported apps. For one thing, I believe it needs to be classified as a ‘game’ versus ‘entertainment’. That seems to control the pop up at least. Is it working and we just don’t see the pop up?Thank you for not giving up on this one. You deserve a model for patience. It took a year, but better late than never. This is a great, feature rich app. What I like about this is the preservation and history aspect that comes with this type of emulation. Reliving the arcade experience from back in the day. Thanks again!

Hi! You might not see Game Mode if it has been activated before. Sometimes you need to wait 5 mins after the app has launched for it to work. Thanks!

Been too long of a wait, but we finally have the best arcade (MAME) emulator officially on the App Store. Built on the 269 emulation core but the latest 276 set seems to work great. This emulator has the absolute best arcade ROM emulation for iOS devices. The visuals are fantastic, sounds are perfect (for ROMs I’ve tested), game controller support works flawlessly - you can do everything from navigating the front end to launching and playing games with the game controller. And best of all it’s absolutely free with no ads and no IAPs. Perfect and thank you devs for all the hard work.

Iv been trying to find a good app to play arcade games like the mortal kombat arcade games and this app actually loads them and plays them just fine. One thing I would like to ask is to fix a certain audio issue with the app, I’m not sure if it’s the game itself or the apps emulation with the sound but it cuts of certain sounds it seems when there’s too many sounds playing. Besides that everything is perfect
