  1. 5/5Best Emulator

    This is the most user-friendly emulator I’ve ever used. It’s simple but powerful, and organizing ROM files feels incredibly smooth. The customizable on-screen controls work really well, with unique layouts for each platform. Now the top buttons in the game screen can also be customized, and landscape mode can be locked. It’s so good.

Versions

App Store

  • 1.0
  • 1.1.0

    1. New Control Experience: Introduced a new SpriteKit-based in-game overlay system, significantly enhancing tactile feedback and control precision. 2. Smart ROM Recognition: Optimized file and folder import workflows with new multi-file association detection. 3. Enhanced Disc Image Support: Added automatic recognition for cue, m3u, gdi, mds, and ccd image groups, including missing file detection to ensure reliable imports of complex games. 4. Data Architecture Upgrade: Migrated core game data to a secure private directory to prevent accidental deletion and ensure your save files are safer and better protected.

  • 1.2.0

    1. Architecture Overhaul: Decoupled rendering from game logic. By offloading logic to an independent thread, we’ve achieved more consistent frame pacing and superior system responsiveness. 2. Multi-Speed Fast Forward: New support for 2x, 3x, 4x, and 6x speeds. Skip repetitive sequences and boost your gameplay efficiency instantly. 3. High-Fidelity Fast Forward Audio: Integrated the signalsmith-stretch algorithm to provide smooth audio time-stretching, eliminating noise and artifacts during fast forward. 4. Granular Configuration: Upgraded settings system with per-core and per-game overrides. You can now define unique parameters for every classic title.

  • 1.3.0

    1. Added per-player external controller mapping with in-app binding configuration. 2. Added persistent game-level input binding profiles, automatically restored per ROM. 3. Added configurable core/game options: video driver, audio driver, and mute during fast-forward. 4. Added overlay touch player assignment and improved virtual/physical input coordination. 5. Improved stability for Saturn (Yabause) when exiting with connected controllers.

  • 1.3.1

    1. Added RetroGo Pro support. 2. Improved purchase and entitlement management. 3. Minor stability and UI improvements.

  • 1.4.0

    Version 1.4.0 brings a major redesign to how you browse and discover games. • All-new tab bar navigation — Library, Discover, and Settings each have their own dedicated tab for faster, cleaner access. • Game Discovery — explore game databases for all supported platforms directly inside the app. Look up titles, check compatibility, and find what you want without leaving RetroGo. • Redesigned Library — browse your collection the way you prefer: icon grid, list, grouped by core, grouped by tag, or a full folder tree. Every folder is its own page, making deep collections easy to navigate. • Platform icons — each system now has its own icon in the library, so you can tell platforms apart at a glance. Icons across the rest of the app have been refined too. • Fixed a button conflict that prevented the accelerate button from working correctly in PSP racing games.

  • 1.4.1

    This is a small follow-up update to RetroGo 1.4. • Added in-game disc switching support for multidisc games, including M3U-based game sets. • Added an Acknowledgments page for open-source projects, Libretro contributors, and homebrew games used in RetroGo promotional materials. • Improved legal and attribution information inside the About page.

  • 1.5.0

    Make the in-game controls your own — and the whole app now rotates with your device. • Customizable in-game toolbar — rearrange, pin, or hide the top buttons, with the rest tucked into a More menu. • New landscape lock button to keep the game fixed in landscape while you play. • The entire app now rotates with your device, not just the game screen. • Turbo speed levels — Very Slow, Slow, Medium, Fast, Very Fast — set per core or per game. • Tap-to-lock Turbo for the X/Y buttons: a quick tap keeps auto-fire running hands-free; tap again to release. • In-game toolbar icons now have subtle shadows, so they stay clearly visible even over bright scenes. • Added Contact Us in Settings to send feedback by email.

  • 1.6.0

    Unlock cheats, cleaner discovery, and smarter game names. • Added Cheats — create custom cheat codes, enable them in game, and browse built-in cheat templates for supported platforms. • Added cheat template search, so you can look up available templates by game name. • RetroGo can now automatically match cheat templates using ROM metadata when available. • Cheat templates are delivered as an optional on-demand download, keeping the initial app size smaller. • The Discover page now groups different variants of the same game into one cleaner entry. • Added Chinese game names for supported titles, improving browsing and search when using Chinese. • Improved in-game pause and resume timing for menus and popups. Thanks for playing! Have feedback? Reach us via Settings › Contact Us.

  • 1.7.0

    LAN play, smarter cheats, and a stick that follows your thumb. • Added LAN Multiplayer — host or join a game over the same Wi-Fi network with automatic Bonjour discovery, no setup or accounts required. A live room panel shows players, roles, and ping in real time. • Added a Popular Games section to the cheat template catalog, making it faster to find cheats for well-known titles without searching. • Cheat templates can now be unbound manually, so the auto-matcher won't re-attach the same template in future sessions. • System cheat templates can now be copied as editable user cheats in one tap — customize any built-in entry without modifying the original. • The analog stick now features dynamic thumb tracking: the base follows your finger as you drag, and keeps responding even when you move outside the original touch zone.

  • 1.7.1 · 25 Jun 2026

    Sega Mega Drive support, auto-matched Mega Drive cheats, and one-tap save overwrite. • Added the PicoDrive core, bringing Sega Mega Drive / Genesis, 32X, Game Gear, Master System, and Mega-CD games to RetroGo. • Mega Drive titles are now in Discover — browse and look up games right inside the app, with Chinese names that follow your app language. • Added a Mega Drive cheat template database with automatic CRC32 matching, so cheats bind to recognized ROMs with no manual setup. • Reworked save states into a sectioned list: overwrite an existing save in one tap instead of only creating new ones, and watch your save land in the list before the screen closes.
