Store listing

Full description
Pocket Retro is a retro console emulator for Android. Load the classic game files you own, pick up where you left off with save states, and play with touch controls or a real gamepad. Built on open-source Libretro emulation cores, Pocket Retro organises your games into a clean library and gives you controls, skins and display filters you can tune for every system. KEY FEATURES - Game library: scan a folder you choose and browse your games by system, with search and favorites. - Save states: several save slots per game, plus optional autosave that restores your progress automatically. - Fast forward: speed through slow sections of a game. - Save files: import and export in-game save files. - Touch controls: an on-screen gamepad with haptic feedback and adjustable tilt sensitivity. - Controller skins: choose a look for your on-screen pad, for all systems or one system at a time. - Gamepad support: pair a Bluetooth or USB controller and remap every button. - Display filters: Sharp, Smooth, CRT and LCD looks. - BIOS management: see which supported BIOS files have been detected in your folder. - Themes and 22 languages. COMPATIBILITY Pocket Retro can run game files for systems such as Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, NES, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Sega Mega Drive / Genesis, Master System, Game Gear, PlayStation, PSP, Nintendo DS, Atari 2600 / 7800 / Lynx, PC Engine, Neo Geo Pocket and WonderSwan. Performance depends on your device. Newer systems such as PSP, Nintendo DS and Nintendo 64 need a powerful phone. WHO IT'S FOR Players who want to revisit games from their own collection on a phone or tablet, with the convenience of save states and modern controllers. PREMIUM & ADS - Pocket Retro is free to download and supported by ads, including a rewarded ad before a game starts. - Optional Premium removes ads, removes the ad before each game, and unlocks every controller skin. - Premium is offered as a weekly or yearly subscription (the weekly plan may include a free trial) or as a one-time lifetime purchase. Prices are shown in the app before you buy. - Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel them anytime in your Google Play account settings. --- DISCLAIMER - Pocket Retro is an emulator and does not include any games. You are responsible for only using game files and BIOS files you legally own. - Pocket Retro is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Nintendo, Sega, Sony, Atari, SNK, Bandai or any other console maker. All product names and trademarks belong to their respective owners and are used only to describe compatibility. - Emulation cores are open-source software used under their respective licences. - By using this app, you agree to our Terms of Service (https://policy.tranquilmind.co/pocket-retro/terms) and Privacy Policy (https://policy.tranquilmind.co/pocket-retro/privacy). - Support contact: [email protected]
