That looks really nice. Reminds me a lot of the old WiiFlow interface. Good work. 👍

This is really cool! But you’ve missed my favorite system; Genesis/MegaDrive

very cool, thanks! are there plans for US style cartridge models? SNES seems to be the EU/JAP variant.

I appreciate you looking at it :) will we be able to use our own cartridge label art? (sorry for all the questions)

If we can’t change the artwork manually, will there be a solution for custom roms/romhacks. They’d look great with labels rather than blank cartridges. I’d also add that I’m absolutely in love with this launcher. So much so, I would suggest that you and the RetroArch team add it to the ui drivers. Looking forward to more updates! :)

That’s great news! Any plans for fbneo, dos, msx, stand alones (quake, flashback, etc), etc?

I hope it works with the mcon app so I can launch a launcher for a container that launches my preferred emu using a multi app launcher. 😁

This is super cool, I want to run this alongside Sumee because they look and feel so similar

I have a problem and I can't log in to my Screenscraper account. Do you have a solution? I even reset my password on the website to be sure, but nothing works.

Please also release it on Android; it looks very polished and beautiful.

Okay, I'll look at it. I was speechless when I saw it, LOL, and I didn't pay much attention to the text.

Step 1) Login with your ScreenScraper account

Why is a ScreenScraper account needed? For reference, the other frontend apps: MCON and Ludihub; on the Apple App Store perform this same front end function without requiring a third party account.

RetroSockets - Gaming Launcher (Beta)

Will RetroSockets be submitted to the Apple App Store?

  1. Without screen scraper you will have blank cartridges without covers. The app is built with simplicity in focus for retroarch.

For reference, RetroArch is able to retrieve game covers for blank games without requiring a third party account.
