RetroArch v1.9.10 is released. RetroArch is a multi-system emulator for Linux, Windows, Mac OS X and *BSD. It is formerly known as SSNES. Its design and background is quite different than most other emulators as RetroArch does not implement an emulation core itself. RetroArch talks to libretro, a generic emulator core API. This means that RetroArch is core agnostic, and it does not care which emulator core is running.

Currently there are libretro implementations for systems such as SNES, NES, GBA, GB/GBC, Genesis, and even arcade games (Final Burn Alpha).

libretro isn't only usable for emulators. A preliminary port of an open source reimplementation of Cave Story has been ported to libretro as well.

RetroArch believes in modularity. The application itself is a command-line driven application suitable for HTPC and/or headless use. There also exists a GUI frontend for RetroArch, supporting every single config option available in RetroArch.

  • 3DS: Add bottom screen idle state
  • 3DS: Add unique IDs for Gearboy/Gearcoleco/Gearsystem, correct CAP32 code
  • 3DS/SAVESTATES: Fix RAM states to file when core deinits
  • AUDIO/MIXER: Pad sample buffers to prevent potential heap-buffer-overflows when resampling (fixes crash when using 30 kHz menu audio files)
  • AUDIO/LINUX/SNAP: Add JACK support
  • CHEEVOS: Don't write achievement credentials to overrides
  • CHEEVOS: Disable slowmotion when enabling hardcore mode
  • D3D9: Fixed MVP matrix issue for RGUI texture (main game frame still won't show up though)
  • D3D11/D3D12/HDR: Fixed contrast to be more correct - now scales from 0-10 linearly and behaves more the way you'd expect it to - changed name to ditch legacy settings users may have
  • D3D11/HDR: Fixed D3D11's blend, rasterizer and topology states not being set to the sames when using HDR and leaving the menu - caused issues with PCSX2's Shadow of the Colossus
  • D3D11/D3D12/HDR: Added ability to skip inverse tonemapper to the shader via the constant buffer using 'inverse_tonemap' - set to 0.0f to skip
  • D3D11/D3D12/HDR: Fixed potential bug when swapping between hdr and sdr and the bit depth not being set correctly
  • D3D11/D3D12/HDR: Added numerous helper functions to help create the correct values to colour the UI - normally the white UI elements should be rendered at paper white not max brightness for various reasons
  • BUGFIX/ANDROID: Fix crash that could happen on Android with Sameboy core - would crash on rumble function
  • GFX/WIDGETS: New regular widget message appearance
  • INPUT/MOUSE: Add distinct mouse zero index label for drivers that do not support multimouse
  • INPUT/RUMBLE: Add generic rumble gain to input settings
  • INPUT/UDEV/X11: Add workaround to fix keyboard input when using X11 + Udev
  • LIBNX/SWITCH: Add Video Filters support

  • PLAYLISTS: Add 'Refresh Playlist' option
  • STEAM: Initial release on Steam
  • UWP/VFS/XBOX: Improvements and bugfixes to UWP VFS driver
  • VIDEO/REFRESH RATE: Automatic PAL/NTSC refresh rate switch where available - as long as the platform display server allows changing refresh rates and the display has the desired refresh rate
  • VIDEO FILTERS: Add 'Picoscale_256x-320x240' video filter
  • WIIU/HID: Fix analog inputs on HID devices
