This used to be the best emulator out there, now, after the last update, all the touch controls are broken. As many others have stated, I have to touch way off of where the button actually is for it to register. I'm also on a Moto G Power. The emulation works, but until the buttons are fixed it doesn't deserve more than 2 stars. Things are basically unplayable, and I paid for this app, so that kinda makes me mad.

I've had this emulator for years. It's hands down the best, no doubt. I've played everything from DragonBall games that requires using the touch pad to Pokemon and Zelda. It is so seamless. Very easy to use. -I would love to see the ability to run 2 pokemon games simultaneously like I can on the gba emulator [MyBoy!] makes trading a non issue lol You can swap between games easily, but it resets the 'inactive' game. So, no trading to yourself. Regardless 10/10 get this emulator!

All DS Games are playable and all action replay codes are available for every game. The button scheme is perfect. Ads are minimal and there aren't many saving and loading glitches. There isn't any need to pay money to play and everything about the apo is editable! Lags and crashes are minimal and stays open in the background without crashing better then most games do. Doesn't require wifi to load or play games, but for certain things and removes the need for ads. This is literally the best
