GlassOrbit 4.5/5

Worth every hour

The best thing about Retroarch is the fact that I can slap a nice CRT filter on one of my favorite SNES games, and then I can simply alt-tab to YouTube and put on "Parents Arguing" on loop. I get to truly immerse myself, all within the comfort of my desktop. Thank you, Retroarch, for giving me the ability to come closest to reliving my childhood.

"Why would I play this on steam?" you may ask

"Why would I play this on steam?" you may ask. The answer is simple: there are cloud saves. You can now play on your desktop, laptop, and soon to be steam deck with the same saves without any fuss. Close it on your PC and pick it back up on your Laptop. Continue where you left off. It's amazing.
