Prompts
- Keep in mind, not every device can emulate every console. A very powerful one is required for more recent systems such as PSP and DS and 3DS.
- If your country blocked Google Play (or vice versa), then you may receive an error like "It looks like the Liretro core was not loaded...." when starting a game, or core update failed. The solution is - use a VPN for this app, and scan all games again (just once).
