I downloaded the app and decided not to touch it until you made the guide. I had the feeling you were going to make one and I was right. Thank you Russ
My GOD! Just installed Retroarch on my Apple TV 4k and can't believe how easy it was to setup a retro gaming machine in our living room without ANYTHING (but bios, roms and your guide). Thank you SO much!
5 месяцев назад+4
is it the same installation process as the ipad and iphone? I have appletv+ 4k and wasn't sure if it's the same install process. Thanks!
It gets very complicated when you realize all the settings you can use. So many games don't work that great with certain cores, and you have to have different aspect ratios scaling settings to get scanlines to sync up with the pixels. Then you have the issue of a lot of games not showing up in the list, you can't just add them to the list without a lot of hassle, although you can load them in by navigating the directory then adding it to your favorites. The ds for example runs different games at different resolutions, so you have to screw with so many settings to get each game perfect. Some games you can run the core at much higher resolutions, and that is gonna mess with your shaders, so you have to find the right combination. Then you need get a control scheme to be able to switch screen layouts so you can have 1 large screen with a small one, on some games you want them vertical so that's an entirely different setting. Then you have to figure out how to individualize settings. It's a huge pain in the ass, but it's worth it. I highly suggest using integer scaling, then messing with core video/screen settings to get it full screen, then use the best looking scanline shader. Especially on a 4k tv, most games are gonna look pretty terrible compared to how they should look. You need the scanlines or else you lose like 50% or detail and shading, you also don't get transparency on pixels. It's taken me like 2 weeks to get everything configured and i'm still tinkering. I still haven't gotten the psp perfect yet.
Be aware, apple tv likes to wipe out cache data on retroarch. That includes roms, save data, save states, and other files like bios and some configurations due to apple choice to have that cleaned out to make room. I have had retro arch on apple tv for some time now, and its annoying. I always have to backup manually and reupload to folders and re put settings. I leave app open at all times now to help prevent tvos deleting things. Also when updates are being applied to app, expect a wipe of all data. Be careful!
@@KendolinkPS3This is an Apple TV thing, not a Retroarch thing. Definitely not stable enough to use regularly on Apple TV unless you want to frequently reinstall roms, saves, settings, etc. I believe some folks claim it’s been figured out with network access storage but I haven’t looked into it
@@the_cool_penguin nope, you can actually multitask with up to 3 apps opened in vertical(cause of screen size) but if you hook it to a monitor you can use the desktop mode, and apps closing/restarting happens cause of low ram phones/3-4 ram phones, which are usually the $60-$100 phones
I thought this was a retro arch set up for alt store or something but wow it’s native on iOS .. what an amazing day!! No more having to use alt store every week
I'm not an iOS user, or any Apple product for that matter. I just love seeing people getting more functionality from their devices and this is a big one in my eyes. Retro gaming is only getting more popular as modern gaming keeps getting worse.
Not really. Only us nerds believe that but it's wrong. Delta was number 1 in Free Apps in the App Store and now sits at 75 as of writing this comment. PPSSPP is 194. RetroArch isn't even top 200. The hype has died down significantly. I don't care if you like my comment or not. Just giving you a dose of reality. 😊
@@sk8brder40 Not as good as it was. This is a RetroArch video though. How do you feel about RetroArch not even being in the top 200 still despite this very helpful video? Does it make you happy hardly anyone cares about the app? 😊
I tried this on Apple TV and it worked great for the most part! There are some issues with N64 and because of that I didn't try Saturn. Air Playing from the iPhone to the Apple TV seemed a lot more fluid. But it is nice to finally utilize some of that storage space on the Apple TV.
I have developed a solution to sync save and save states across devices using the shortcuts app. it’s completely hands off and runs automatically when the app is open and closed. I now can game on my ipad and pickup on my phone right away. I feel like a video from you in particular might be good for people who want to use multiple devices without manually backing up or having a home server setup.
Great video, Russ! I always appreciate these step-by-step guides as Retroarch can definitely be daunting if you've never used it before! The 8BitDo SN30 Pro is actually my retro controller of choice for almost all my retro games, too. It really is a solid controller! I always take for granted that we can now pretty easily play nearly any classic retro game...on the go, no less!
I was waiting for this since forever because I wanted to have an easy way to play vertical shmups filling up the whole screen. I tried and it's even easier than what you describe. You don't need to activate vertical mode. You just rotate the screen and it works! I haven't been able to make such a frictionless setup where you can easily switch from horizontal to vertical shooters on any other platform.
Great guide, thank you. Never bothered with RA on PC, so this is the time to start digging into it. One important setting for iOS is under settings -> audio, 'respect silent mode'. Turn that off to get game sound with muted ringer in the control center!
THANK YOU KIND SIR For making this step by step guide!!! Now I can FINALLY play the SEGA Saturn!!!! I’ve been dying to play all the Panzer games for YEARS!! & thanks to you I can actually do it! Before I watched this vid I was getting so frustrated & confused because this is kinda new to me I know about Emulation & ROMs but only general info I don’t have a PC so to get games for my Anbernic & other retro handhelds I have to resort to Etsy to buy premade cards for my systems 😅 & to buy modded systems
make hotkeys for next shader and previous shader and set it to remember the shader directory, then put a hotkey to bring up the retroarch menu on your l3 button, otherwise youll spend hours trying each shader. All I can tell you is that each game absolutely needs individual settings to look their best, some games are different resolutions so your shader scanlines won't sync up. Tinker till it's perfect. You might have to use different cores for different games.
Something that might be helpful for auto-scanned playlists: if you go to settings -> playlists -> manage playlists -> [name of playlist] -> default core, you can set what core that playlist uses so it doesn’t ask you every time you boot up a new game
THANK you very MUCH. I am following you step by step and have to take a break at the 12 minute mark. It took me a while to find the language setting. It‘s far easier, if it‘s all in english. I will have to pick up my magic keyboard and mouse to navigate as fast as you do. This is by far the best guide you have ever made. And it makes me to dive deeper into my iPad, RA and retroachievements. Did you know I had an account there already? Me neither…huh. Live and learn. Next I will choose only a handful of systems and 20 games max to really play and enjoy them. FBNeo might be on top of the list. Oh, and of course I have to find my BIOS files. That’s why I took a break following your guide and to again THANK you VERY MUCH.
I happen to have an iPad Pro as well, and after seeing this, I *really* wanna try RetroArch on it, haha. I don’t have a wireless Bluetooth controller though, but I’m seriously considering picking one up sometime to use for this. I’d also wanna get a little stand for the iPad, for a better viewing/gaming experience
For the stand, the cheapest option would be a laptop stand (perfect for my 12.9”) For the Bluetooth Controller but from the brand (8-Bitdo) for retro games or Xbox Series X for PSP or PS1 games
Thanks for the tutorial. I've managed to figure out a few things myself, but you showed me the importance of doing a manual scan when making a playlist. Not only do I have systems with rom extensions that you'd need to match manually, but I also have a bunch of homebrew, hacks, translations, etc. that also don't show up without a manual scan. Another thing I've missed until now is that overlays (for those of us that use them sometimes) can be set per-core using Overrides. With these two pieces of info, maybe I can start using RetroArch more.
This is way easier than Xbox Dev Mode, Retroarch, and AetherSX2 for my Series S. I'm just having fun getting emulation working on my devices. Great Video! I'm all for video game preservation.
If I went back in time and showed 5-year-old me how future me can take my whole NES/SNES library with me and play everywhere & anywhere on the go ... I'd probably call myself a big fat liar. Thanks for the guide, Russ.
Wait so your telling me I got my parents to buy my a console that had retro arch pre installed with all the games JUST FOR ITS TO BECOME NATIVE ON IOS honestly so happy these are available now tho thank you for making this vid never would’ve known about it otherwise
Great job man. 👑 I love this videos, although i am already deeply familiar with your retroarch guide. It is always cool for me to check my settings again and again. I do like XMB, but i like to choose, “Layout:Handheld”, “Color Theme:Black”, “Scale Factor: 1.00x” It really looks cool on the RP4 Pro
Hey Russ, thank you for the video!! When you make the Apple TV RetroArch guide could you include a how-to on getting cloud saves up and running between iPad, iPhone, and Apple TV??
Aha ok so arcade roms need to be in a "FinalBurn Neo - Arcade ROM Set (Full Non-Merged)" type to work. Hopefully there's an... _Internet Archive_ of such a thing!
Now I need a good controller that’ll fit my iPad mini! Bluetooth so I can use in landscape or vertical for DS emulation. Was looking at some of the usb-c ones but I’d love vertical DS gameplay.
Gamesir G8 Plus Bluetooth might work. According to Gamesir's website, it supports device width from 120mm to 215mm, and the 6th generation iPad Mini is 195mm (height) and 135mm (width) so it should fit both in portrait and landscape position.
This is great, I've already been messing around with this as I used to love RA on Android. Got it on my iPhone and iPad Mini, works great. Been using RA since the Wii, so I know quite a bit, but I understand (if you don't know what you're doing) it can be quite cumbersome. Great video though.
Nintendo DS is the only system worth playing on the iPhone and iPad because they have touchscreen. (unlike most retro handheld) iPad is especially playable because of it's screen size - even a fat finger can be precise on a big screen.
Slightly off subject, but could you do a video with your favorite PC build? As in the program you like most (Retroarch, Launchbox, etc.), set up for each system to max out graphics and gameplay and anything else?
I would not recommend using the “select” button as the hotkey, as it’s a button used in several SNES and PS1 games (typically brings up a menu screen) and can make saving states awkward. I find L3 is a better choice, although on an Xbox Series controller you can use the share button as the hot key.
Instead of putting the roms inside the RetroArch folder I find it easier to put the rom folder in the same directory as the RetroArch app folder. It's a lot easier to get to that way.
Retro Game Corps - could you do a tutorial on how to set up retro arch to save / store all game data on iCloud so one can switch back and forth from their iPhone to their iPad? Thanks!
It is also possible to shave pixels off of the edges of N64 games to make them fill the screen better, at least using the parallel n64 core, which happens to work better for Paper Mario
That was one of the BEST tutorials I have ever seen! Thank you so much you made me understand everything I needed to know about RetroArch as I never used before. I have just a question about PS1 games, in the past I've been using a PSVITA with Adrenaline to emulate PSX games and I'm trying to understand if it would be possible to transfer my save files I have on my PSVITA to my iPad so I don't lose my progress.. Is it something doable and are the file formats compatible with each other?
That was a great video! Thanks for working so hard on it!! I have just one question of something you mentioned, how can you set up multiple Bluetooth controllers into 1 apple device?
This is Dope I got it to work. All minus the audio. Ive looked at the volume of both the app and my phone and they are way up, but no audio. any thoughts as to why this is?
Whelp, guess I’m heading out to target to get a backbone finally. I’ve been putting it off for like a year. Didn’t even realize Apple opened up emulators. Wild.
Hey Russ, love your videos. Just a quick question in your video you recommended using the BSNES core for Super Nintendo but on your website you recommend the Snes9x Current core? Why the change? Is BSNES better for apple devices?

Retroarch was really intimidating at first but this guide made it so much easier!
Woo hoo!!! Grabbing a snack and a drink! Thanks Russ
My God, buddy, you are a retro godsend. I can’t even tell you how much you’ve helped me out.
The 4:3 screen on these iPads is kind of perfect for these retro games

thank you for your advice, excellent tutorial, I cant wait to delve into this when I get a backbone

Thanks Russ! Been waiting for your guide before getting started 😃
Jit being enabled will be a dream
This is already awesome though
Dude that shader looks so good for GBC/GBA on your iPad
Perfect, just got an iPad pro so this is super nice. Thank you!

Nintendo DS is the only system worth playing on the iPhone and iPad because they have touchscreen. (unlike most retro handheld)

Very helpful guide for retroarch in general! Are you planning on doing a video for setting up the ppsspp app as well?
Thank you very much. This is why I subscribed.
I would not recommend using the “select” button as the hotkey, as it’s a button used in several SNES and PS1 games (typically brings up a menu screen) and can make saving states awkward.
I find L3 is a better choice, although on an Xbox Series controller you can use the share button as the hot key.
Instead of putting the roms inside the RetroArch folder I find it easier to put the rom folder in the same directory as the RetroArch app folder. It's a lot easier to get to that way.
CRT-Sines is another good shader for general use under the CRT category.

It is also possible to shave pixels off of the edges of N64 games to make them fill the screen better, at least using the parallel n64 core, which happens to work better for Paper Mario
I really like ozone layout in retroarch

Now I can send this to all of my friends that have been asking 😂
Wish it had cloud saves so I can game between my iPhone and iPad, airdrop works as an alternative, but finicky
If you get the Gen2 of the Backbone it will handle most cases (with and without Backbone adapters).
Next cool thing would be to be able to do dynamic wallpapers to make the front end on retroarch even better
You're the best 💪
Hey Russ, love your videos. Just a quick question in your video you recommended using the BSNES core for Super Nintendo but on your website you recommend the Snes9x Current core? Why the change? Is BSNES better for apple devices?
It is so cool to see you play NiGHTS :D
The new OLED iPad will probably be the best emulation devices for 4:3 now. Just a shame anything above N64 is useless without JIT.
I have the exact same backbone one used in the thumbnail!
