    Probably has to be the best emulator out there. Hands down!! Controls are responsive. And the only thing I keep asking myself is where has this emulator been when i was in high school lol. Nice job devs!

    My favorite part about this is that I can seamlessly load save states between my iPhone and iPad.

    I’m incredibly impressed with how well I’m able to emulate gameboy and gameboy advanced games on my Apple Watch. It’s amazingly simple with this app to add roms from your phone and they play impressively well on such a small screen. You would be surprised how well you can view these games on such a small screen and fit in the controls as well. Some games that require a lot of quick button pressing and reaction time might not be best on the watch app but I highly suggest giving games which allow for more reaction time such as turn based strategy, and rpgs a try on this. For instance any of the Pokémon games would be great on this. The price is unbeatable for the ability to add vastly better games on your Apple Watch than any that exist on the App Store.

    The audio on the sample channel sounds wrong. I’m a chiptune musician and wanted to use this for working with lsdj, but the sample channel has an added waveform whenever it’s triggered that makes it so you can’t hear anything on that channel like it’s supposed to sound. A good example to show what’s wrong can be found with the home brew rom “amenizer.” Actual hardware and every other emulator I’ve tried all you can hear is drums, but on this app there’s an added high pitched screech.

    This works amazing for GBA. I love how simple the controls are, and how easy it was to import games and save files. It is easy to save game states and transfer them between iPhone and Watch. I also love being able to use the game in portrait and landscape. This is the emulator I was dreaming of, thank you! Well worth the money.

    Does exactly what it says in a nice looking minimal package, I don’t use my Apple Watch much but playing GBA on it is extremely novel.
  • Good start!

    Would love to see different overlays, opacity options, more options in general. Good job!
