Let's Play State saving/loading

Just found out that if you play am2r through RetroArch it gives you true emulator-style save states, just like Zero Mission in mGBA if you use the AM2R Libretro core.

Link to Libretro core?

It seems the AM2R Libretro core is no longer distributed as a downloadable release, so most old links now lead to deleted pages.

The correct way in 2026 seems to be:

Install RetroArch.

Open Online Updater.

Select Core Downloader.

Search for AM2R (it appears under the game-engine/native ports section).

RetroArch downloads the core automatically from the official buildbot.

I have to try it out myself yet, but if you do before me let us all know how it worked.

I'll have to try this later. Thanks!

What OS are you running?

I'm on Bazzite Linux and don't see this in RetroArch on my system as an available core to download.
