This February, delve into the adrenaline-fueled world of "Sonic the Hedgehog" on the Sega Genesis. This seminal platformer introduced gamers to Sonic, the iconic blue hedgehog renowned for his breakneck speed, as he confronts the nefarious Dr. Robotnik in a quest to liberate his animal companions.
Developer(s): Sonic Team
Publisher(s): Sega
Platform(s): Sega Genesis/Mega Drive
Why "Sonic the Hedgehog"? Launched in 1991, "Sonic the Hedgehog" redefined platform gaming with its emphasis on rapid movement, intricate level design, and vibrant visuals. Its compelling gameplay and unforgettable soundtrack have cemented its status as a timeless classic, appealing to both seasoned gamers and newcomers.
Gameplay: Players guide Sonic through a series of zones, each comprising multiple acts teeming with adversaries, environmental hazards, and hidden secrets. The game rewards maintaining momentum and precision to navigate its complex level designs effectively.
Emulator Recommendation: We recommend using the Genesis Plus GX core within RetroArch. This setup delivers accurate emulation of Sega's 8/16-bit consoles, focusing on speed, precision, and portability. RetroArch offers a cohesive interface and Retro Achievements integration built in.

I try to do some cheat codes online but it didn't work
i have a s23 ultra i have never used an emulatior this complix before last time was ppssspp i know my phone isnt that strong so i am wondring if i can run small games like palworld or any smilier AA games
I want to start playing 3ds games on my android, but I don't know what to do or where to start.
I'm playing Pokémon Emerald on John GBA Lite and have been using save states instead of in-game saves. I didn’t notice earlier, but now the music and most sound effects don’t play, only Pokémon cries in battle and rain, which sounds terrible. I tried fixing it by saving in-game and loading that save, but in my two most recent save states (after beating the Fortree Gym, and during the battle), the game resets before finishing the save process, forcing me to reload an old save from the beginning. Deleting the in-game save file doesn’t work because it gets automatically restored. I don’t know how to save properly to try and fix the audio.
I also wanted to try moving the save State to pizza boy a basic to save in game there and then move the save file back but I'm not really sure how to do that and in the folder where I think the save states are, they are different file types from the one in John GBA so it wouldn't even be compatible.
Any help is much appreciated.
Anyone know which settings on DraStic make it look most closely to actual DS rendering? I like to keep things immersive on my emulation. :D
Is winlator the best bet? I tried this but it required such an older version of DX that it ran very poorly. Thanks in advanced for any help.
Are there any special graphic packs settings or graphics settings / audio settings to get this to be playable? This should be fully playable no? I am getting a lot of crashes. Like I cannot get pass 30 seconds of gameplay. Maybe my rom is corrupted ?
I can't decide between them, they're all almost same price and the only difference I can make of them is that G8 Galileo has hall effect while Kishi and Backbone has rumble.
I know the difference is pretty subjective but I'm curious. Is hall effect worth exchanging rumble for or is stick drift not that much of a problem?
Hello so I have been playing pokemon sun and ultra sun on lime3ds and it lags very badly whenever I enter battle in both pokemon sun and ultra sun it's worse in ultra sun and the fps also drop to 1 to 3 fps. Other than that the games run above 30fps most of the times.
Is there a way to get better performance?
I have redmi note 13 5g 256gb storage and 16gb ram,it's prossecor is the dimensity 6080.
Also the lag and performance drop is worse on citra than it is on lime3ds.
Ok so, i downloaded rare launcher, logged in, downloaded rocket league and now it doesn't run at all no matter what settings i use, the closest i got was the pop-up window appearing and then checking task manager, it builds up to 5 gb of ram usage then goes down to 3 and closes.
Any advice would be appreciated!
Hi, I read that nethersx2 should save per game settings when you enter the settings screen when game is running, however I am finding that the setting is acting like it's global for all games.
E.g if I set the upscaling to 1.5 in one game and then set it to 1 in another, the first game changes to 1 next time I launch it.
Can anyone help?
I'm using latest nethersx2 on rg406v android device
Which custom versions of Winlator (and or its contents) are compatible with Mali GPUs?
After the police points the guns at kiryu, the game freezes, but sound still plays. Any idea of why is that?
I'm using a Motorola g32 with standard settings.
Post: Hey everyone,
I'm trying to play Breath of the Wild on my OnePlus 13 (Snapdragon 8 Elite) 512gb 16gb, but it keeps crashing. I've tested it on both Yuzu and Suyu, but no luck. Same with Totk.
On top of that, the newest Turnip drivers crash every game I try. I've tried different versions, but only a really old one works
Has anyone else run into this issue? Any fixes or workarounds? I'd really appreciate any help!
Thanks!

Title says it all. I have the latest Citron 0.4 installed and everything is running really well. In case I need to re-install the app for some reason, I'd like to know what firmware I'm currently using.
From a recent post I made, I just got my hands on the Galaxy S25. I was able to play celeste thru citron and a handful of games through gamefusion just fine. When I tried Lets Go Pikachu, there was this weird artifacting forming whenever I moved around. I haven't really found a solution to this or if there even is one. Aside from that SD8E is looking really promising so far.
