Don't forget the vita version of retroarch also lets you use the thouchscreen and backtouch for 4 extra buttons. They can be useful for extra commands. I personally use it for for fast forward and rewind. Also retroarch is useful for PS1 emulation as well for games like Brave Fencer Mushashi that doesn't work in adrenaline.

[@RetroGameCorps]

Good points, thanks!

[@HistoryandReviews]

Musashi does work on adrenaline you have to hold home i believe and change the firmware in the settings or pop firmware in settings

[@chronossage]

@@HistoryandReviews Last I checked popsloader doesn't actually work in adrenaline. That did work for the PSP though. Edit: I just looked it up and the Vita has a different version of POPS that's incompatible with PSP POPS so it will never work.

[@HistoryandReviews]

@@chronossage I know for a fact I changed it in one of the menus. Been trying to replicate what I did 2 weeks ago for the past 3 hours. It’s either in the Adrenaline menu (open adrenaline once it loads hold the home button until the adrenaline settings appear) or once adrenaline loads hit the select button I had to change it to play Musashi and Rugrats search for Reptar

Just a quick note; when I was going through this tutorial, nowhere does it say that you have to hit 'start' in vitashell and change the directory of 'memory card' to 'sd2vita', otherwise when you connect your Vita to your PC, windows explorer only reads the default 8GB Vita memory card. Hope this helps!

This is piss poor tutorial. Seems like your cutting steps and not exactly showing everything. video is all distorted and the instructions are not exactly clear. Where did you even manage to get the games files or what are the extensions of the game files?

[@davidalvarado9957]

After watching the video the tutorial was basically perfect. Everything is explained clearly and done step by step. Any video distortion is on your side but the video runs perfectly on my end. Some settings in retroarch have been moved around a bit since this video released but all it takes is a little effort on your part to READ and they aren't too hard to find. You either source the games and bios files from your own personal copies OR do what most of us probably did and use good old Google to find a site that hosts them. The written guide on his site explains exactly what file extension you need and any specific naming conventions for them you need to follow. It's illegal to distribute roms so he's obviously not going to link to exactly where you get them. That should have been extremely obvious. I personally use Vimms Lair.

any update on this?

[@fakeplasticgamers9850]

USEFUL TIP: I had an issue where RetroArch wouldn't recognize certain NES and SNES games, so it wouldn't add them to the playlist. This has to do with the way RetroArch checks for good roms or whatever, but as it turns out, that doesn't mean it can't run the games. It only doesn't add them to the playlist, but you can still run them manually. To do this, you just load the game rom manually from the first button of the menu. Navigate to the folder you put them on and voilá. Yeah, you will have to do this every time you want to play the game, but at least you can play it!

[@HelenoPaiva]

ideed this was a good tip! is there perhaps a way to make these perky games display on the damned playlist??? That would put me in a positionquite more confortable!!! i have no idea why they are glitching like that.

[@fakeplasticgamers9850]

@@HelenoPaiva I couldn't figure out a way, I guess you could try downloading different rooms for the same game and see if one of them works.

No offense or anything, love your channel, but this video perfectly demonstrates why I both sort of respect but mostly hate retroarch. Jack of all trades, master of none. UI is a unintuitive headache for me to navigate, making setup for each emulator a chore. Always get errors for some silly reason because you didn't setup something perfectly. Works great IF you set it up correctly but getting there is such a huge pain in the ass.

[@RetroGameCorps]

Yep, totally agree with you Rob. The app has been in dire need of a real UI overhaul for many years now. They're in a weird spot where they set up the interface imperfectly, but they're so deep down the rabbit hole that they may not ever recover. It took me nine months of tinkering with the interface on various systems to get to the level of knowledge I have today, and I'm by no means a pro. At that point it's not the fault of the user, but of the system.

I still remember when I saw your video regarding the Vita as a great Sony machine, and I remember writing that there were additional ways to make retroarch cores run better, and I'm very happy for you, you got to go farther than other vita enthusiasts on KZbin and can't wait to see you cover the minefield that is N64 on the vita.It's not perfect but, uh, at least SM64 looks really nice on it. Also there's the mod for overclocking the vita during game sessions and at hight to max performance for me some N64 games run a bit better, and starfox for SNES runs better, it's not a constant 60 fps, and dips hard, but the stuttering is way less than normal, so if you haven't played with that, that is an interesting mod to experiment certain games with. Cheers!

[@RetroGameCorps]

So, my kids and I have declared this summer is the summer of Pokemon. They picked up a game guide at a local book sale for Pokemon Fire Red (possibly mom's biggest regret ever), and none of us had ever played it. They each have their own twilight CFW DS Lite that we picked up on our trip to Japan before PCSing to Virginia, and for the money (Wattman prices), they were totally worth it. And for Pokemon Fire Red, again, perfect for my 5-7 yr olds, indestructible, easy to operate, and indestructible. But for me, I had been using the Miyoo Mini Plus, which was pretty good. Not a lot to complain about, and the ability to essentially play one-handed was a bonus. But my old man eyes kind of wanted something a bit bigger and bit better visually. So I dug out my Vita 1000 OLED and this guide was just the ticket. I used the updated Henkaku guide and now, I have a dedicated Pokemon device. I did switch to the gpSP core, and moved my save files to the new folders, but then.... all was spot on. Now I just have to catch up to where they are... about two cities/trainer badges ahead of me. ;p ...Cheers!

Does this work in 2023??

[@dangerx6979]

When I go to scan directory and do the same thing as you if finds all my roms it scans them but after it finishes they still doesn't show up in the menu, why is this happening?

[@lukasstantejsky175]

Hi, does anybody know why RetroArch doesn´t create retroarch.cfg file (only retroarch-salamander.cfg)? And everytime when I start RetroArch it says: failed saving config to ux0:/data/retroarch/retroarch.cfg. Sorry for my english.

where do i get the bios files ??

[@JesusBlazquezXexuWilder]

Using 2005 plus core with SNES, bilinear filtering ON and normal2x filter. I only get 45fps on super mario world 2 on the same point of the game. I must doing something wrong (ps vita 2000, same config)

[@andersstrom5985]

Same here. 2002 works, or 2005 non-plus without the filter.

[@leannegrace9739]

Great video! BTW I can't help but notice that you have PS2 games installed on your vita as well. will you be doing a tutorial on how to do that too? Thank you

[@qudarrianjacobs717]

I couldn’t find the “Bios” files that you mentioned

[@kashboyflexn2440]

Where do I download the bios files that you have I don't see them.

[@RetroGameCorps]

I don't link to them because they are copyrighted, but you can search for 'retroarch bios pack' and find what you need.

yoshis island runs 45 fps for me i have a vita 2000. is it maybe because i have too many plugins installed? i tried all the other snes cores too. can someone tell me what might be causing the problem?
