How to add more games

ROM Usage & Legal Disclaimer

Emulators are legal and preserve retro games, but downloading copyrighted ROMs without permission may be illegal. This site does not host or link to ROMs.

Homebrew & Public Domain Games

Freely available ROMs by independent devs are great for testing and exploring.

Curated ROM Sets

These search terms are provided for informational and archival research purposes only. This site does not host or link to copyrighted content.

Transferring Files

Use microSD or USB to add ROMs and BIOS files. Organize them per emulator’s folder structure and always eject devices properly.

BIOS Files & Requirements

Some systems like PlayStation or Neo Geo require BIOS files for emulation, which must be legally obtained by dumping from your own hardware. We do not host or distribute BIOS files. For general discussion about BIOS requirements, you may find community forums helpful, such as this Reddit thread. Please ensure you comply with all applicable laws.
