RETROARCH full setup guide for 2023

[@veron6984]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I had trawled youtube for a day to find out how to install and set up retroarch for my autistic son. I spent hours watching and following step by step to no avail until i found your tutorial and bingo i managed to get it working thanks to you. The other tutorials were very good but technical terms lost me but yours for me, an elderly lady was easy to follow. Peace has returned to the household thanks to you. ❤🇬🇧

[@RoaldRoberts]

Having the video in the left corner of the screen, then following in the app on the right part of the screen worked great for me 👌 Thanks for the vid!

[@ADOS_DSGB]

I pre-ordered the ROG Ally, I'm watching Retroarch setup videos for emulation on the ROG Ally. This is the best one I've found, clear, concise, and quick . Thank you.

[@likewhaa22]

Let me know if it works for you, I just picked my Ally up and am having trouble getting emulation to work, I have no idea what I’m doing tbh

[@ADOS_DSGB]

@@likewhaa22 Hey, I'm no longer going to use RetroArch. They have Emudeck for Windows in development, I'm going to use that instead.

[@iainbaker6916]

This is easily the most I intuitive and user-friendly tutorial I have for RA I have seen to date. Excellent work, and thank you. You just earned yourself a sun 😊 RA started acting up for me a few years back when they did the ugly grey screen update - the joypad button config got messed up so jump and fire got merged and couldn’t be separated - so I went back to using individual emulators for each system, which worked, but was a hassle. If RA is working again now and the pretty ‘it’s not the PS3 menu, honest’ is back I think I’ll start using it again. 👍😀

[@KyroOuttaSpace]

Is it better than the astherx ps2 emulator or w.e

[@andreasvanbergen9696]

I totally agree!

[@SconnerStudios]

I used to play Earthbound and a few other games back in the late 2000s, and I finally came back to emulation. This makes it all sooooo much easier. Thank you for your tutorials, I'm also psyched to try out the Pokemon Mini emulator because I always wanted to play them as a kid, but they were so expensive.

[@MrJasonj5]

Hey thanks I've been watching several of your videos on retro-gaming. I really appreciate it. You make good easy-to-follow videos.

[@UpToNoGood83]

The Best Retroarch tutorial EVER! I've given up many times with other tutorials. I've done it with yours.... Perfect!!

[@PapiNegro456]

I'm clearly confused I'm reading the comments about this tutorial and I see that everybody else is getting it I have no idea to find ROMs and emulators or bio files it says nothing about anything about downloading Roms not in video description or the website so how are you playing these games on a PS Vita where is this information please point it out it's not easy 😕😕😕 not at all upset confused and disappointment please put out the right information

[@DeanGetYourWings]

Word of advice for some better visuals when setting up the library. It's best not to add a playlist the way you added it. If you instead use the GUI and basically do the same, scan you ROM location, it'll assign a console icon to the top for a better look, it'll add the NES cartridge for the games icon instead of the rocket and it'll have better luck adding the boxart usually. Some of the GUI's will also replace the cartridge with the box art. You can confirm this has worked by going into same desktop window and you'll see the Famicon icon instead of just a file icon. You can then set the main LibCore from a right click drop down.

[@JuampyRabino]

It works perfectly. Click on the file browser tab, then select the folder and rightclick=>Scan Directory.

[@mrdzha9519]

thank you pal!!

[@jamesehrig7425]

question, where did you get the games? was it from vimm?

[@Gnarkkotik]

Few questions..what are your recommendations per each emulator in this setup?(meaning let’s say I want a gba or DS emulator) what one should I pick? Would be awesome to have a recommendation list for all consoles on here cause there is multiple for same consoles and I bet most like me don’t wanna download multiples to test out before they get one they like. Next one is I know you said you think standalone emus can be better but do you think there is a big drop off in quality using this to play all the diff emus or should I just stick with standalones? And when you download the “cores” on here is it the same ones as the standalones? (Meaning if I downloaded lets say citra for example is it actually citra or just a hosted client for it?) sorry for all the questions but would love to have them answered cause I’m putting together a pc strictly for emulation for my kids

[@botelloheritage12]

Great questions I'd like to know myself.

[@jds6014]

Why is there always a step missing???? Where do you get the games?

[@R34-q7h]

Hey Simple, I'm so glad I found your channel. I recently bought a retro console called Retro PX4 it basically uses Retroarch as its main program to emulate. It currently has the common games and Emulator NES, Mega Drive etc. I want to load Nintendo DS onto it, is a question of simply removing the SD card and following this video?, except in my case I'm going to load Nintendo DS. Your response will be highly appreciated brother.

[@MrDarkeros]

After you download the Nintendo and it saves. Where is that file located? If you don't already have Any other games on your device? What part of the sea drive or is it still in retro somewhere

[@Woobuggy848]

What is an external hard drive? Do you really need it?

[@derreckrogers790]

Where do I find the games at though

[@NVRLOSTT]

Are all those games already on Retro arch?? Or how did you get all those games on there? Does it have PS2/Xbox games also ?

[@santakiller2gt489]

no it's ones they already have installed on their ssd or hard drive or whatever

[@BrianSmithgrumpygit]

Loving the videos. Got most set up now. I do have 1 problem when i download the boxart they never show up in the games list and in the folder there is only 1 thumbnail. Do you have any advice to fix this please.
