Your collection
Build the collection you always wanted.
Drop a game in and it's shelved — named, boxed, and filed under its console. Ten games or a thousand, you always know what you own, where it lives, and what's worth firing up next.
- Every system, one place. Your whole collection sorted by console, with game counts at a glance.
- Box art, automatic. Cover art is found and downloaded the moment a game lands — no folder full of anonymous files.
- Import from anywhere. Files, a folder, or the clipboard — zipped ROMs and multi-disc PlayStation games included.
- And yes, the boxes are 3D. Real boxes that spin as the game launches. It's the little things.
The name is literal
Every press taps back.
Every button press answers through the Taptic Engine. And when a game rumbles, that rumble comes straight from the emulator into your hand — not a canned buzz, the real thing.
- Per-system controls. Analog sticks, N64 C-buttons, DS stylus, DOS keyboard and trackpad.
- Make it yours. Rearrange the on-screen pad and set stick sensitivity per game.
- Real controllers too. MFi, PlayStation and Xbox — per-player remapping, two-player local play.
Controls built per system
Each console feels like the console.
Not one generic gamepad stretched over 26 systems — every layout is built for its hardware, buttons where your thumbs remember them.
Screen filters
Pixels the way you remember them.
CRT, aperture grille, VHS, handheld LCD, scanlines, bloom, Game Boy green — dial in the glass your games were meant to glow through.
That's a real in-app CRT capture — rainy night in Hyrule, curved glass and all. Full shader set lives in the app.
Go wide
Full-screen landscape. Or your TV.
Immersive landscape mode floats the controls over the game. Or send it to the big screen over AirPlay and use your phone as the controller. Blackout mode keeps night sessions easy on the eyes.
26 systems mounted
From 1977 to the 3DS.
The bright ones open a setup guide.
