The graphics of the emulator are generally praised for their smoothness and quality, with many users appreciating the ability to play games at high resolution without lag. However, some users report issues with limited graphics options leading to performance problems on lower-end devices, suggesting a need for more customizable settings to enhance gameplay. Overall, while the graphics are considered impressive, there are calls for improvements to accommodate a wider range of devices and optimize performance.
“It is a great emulator; the games are always running smoothly and it has good graphics.”
“This emulator has crisp quality sound and graphics.”
“Really awesome! This emulator is very good and has awesome graphics.”
“Great app love it i can access game i can't play no more but the graphics for Wrath Unleashed (the main game I was excited to play) I couldn't see the map, barely saw the other monsters, and when it went into battle it was very slow and kind of glitchy. If that could be first or a suggestion to make it run better on my phone that would be amazing!”
“But only one issue is that graphics options are limited and thus few games get slow like God of War 2.”
“I try everything; it causes lagging at this point. Even if I try anything graphics, system, and general settings, it's still the same. I can't focus on this game.”
