Community Insight:
Why would you charge people for games that arent even yours? We doubt you own the rights to this anyways. Good ui, bad app.
First,we hate the choppiness of the games. Second, we hate that you have to subscribe to a service to play more games.
Please consider adding: Clash at Demonhead Flying Dragon 1, 2, 3 Krion Quest Bio Senshi Dan Monster Party.
This game is really fun, as we have a big taste for retro games. However, itd be cool if you added more games to the NES section (like Gradius, Gun-Nac, Mario, Zelda, Contra, etc.), that would make us happy :) Overall, yall should definitely download this app, its worth your time :D Sincerely Izzy (the GOAT of retro games).
We love this app we may not have Mario or pac man but theres a lot of hidden gems in this selection but we dont like the blur in the games can you please add a setting that allows you to remove the blur or not if you do that that would be nice.
It had Pac-Man on the title screen. We played the game and out the game. We could just knock off Gallaghers.
Please add controller suport for phones.
This is awesome sure there arent sonic, or mario, or even pacman, like it showed but our at least there are a few real games instead of all fake and Im sure they can get the rights eventually Im glad this exist this is definitely a download worth your time.
There is none of the games we want (pac man, Mario, Genesis games with Sonic, and others). Another way to revive your app is to make it so that people can make their own games with the nes software.
We LOVE EVERYTHING IN THIS GAME.
Beware, there are no games that you are 90% downloading this for. No earthbound, sonic, Pac-Man, Mario, mega man. But if you are looking for a very specific game then we guess you can check. Also the subscription is bad, just let people buy the games individually.
Do we have to pay a subscription?! We dont need to. People download this for a reason when theres a game this is just a shame bruh.
The first thing we want to say, are the positives. The programming is well done, and the menus look nice. Unfortunately, this app is bad. The subscription service idea isn't great and the selection of games isn't great either. We can tell the devs have talent, but we don't understand why they wouldn't just make new games, instead of piggybacking off of old ones.
