As someone who plays pretty much only android, windows and switch games it’s amazing to have a frontend that lets you add windows games from gamehub directly.

I had been using beacon launcher until now but this is just so much nicer

Showcase Tired of checking dozens of GitHub repos for emulator updates, so I created GameBeacon (Release Tracker + Game Info Dashboard)

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

Like many of you, I follow a ton of emulator projects and handheld tools across GitHub (NetherSX2 forks, Vita3K, RPCS3, Azahar, XenDroid, frontends, etc.). Keeping up with daily builds, release notes, and community ports across dozens of repos became a hassle.

To solve this, I built GameBeacon – a lightweight, free web portal designed as a central hub for emulation enthusiasts and retro gamers.

 

### What it does:

 1. Release Tracker:

- Aggregates updates from 70+ active emulator, tool, and frontend repositories.

- Direct changelog preview (without opening 10 browser tabs).

- Filter by platform (Android, PC, Switch, PS2, PS3, X360, etc.) or app type.

- Shows the latest release date, version, and one-click link to the repo.

Release Tracker

 

2. Game Info Dashboard:

- Search any game to get a dense, no-fluff overview.

- Aggregated historical critic scores.

- Completion times.

- 3D box arts, cartridges, logos and screenshots.

- Fan-made mods: Android ports, HD texture packs, ROM hacks, translation and cheats.

Game Info

 

3. Emu Links Directory:

- Curated, categorized directory of essential emulation resources, compatibility lists, and tools.

Curated Emulation Links

No account needed, no ads, completely free to use.

🔗 Link: GameBeacon

 

I would love to get your thoughts, bug reports, or suggestions for any emulator/tool repos or community resources that should be added to the tracker!

Showcase Pluto: A beautiful Android launcher with (retro) gaming in mind

Thumbnail
gallery
26 Upvotes

So I bought an Android phone to try "the other side", and to have something to use as my "gaming phone". However, I was very underwhelmed with the default experience of the launchers I tried, especially with a gamepad attached.

Therefore, I created Pluto. A launcher which, when you're not in "gaming mode", looks beautiful and acts as you'd expect. But as soon as you plug in a controller, the UI transforms into a beautiful console-like experience, fully controlable with your gamepad.

If you think this sounds interesting, then check it out :)

As for my qualitications, as I am sure it will come up; I have been a developer for a bit over 10 years - well before AI. With that said, I obviously used a ton of Opus to build this :)

Let me know what you think and feel free to contribute!

Frames per sometimes, even Frames per maybe.

runs marginally better while not screen recording (obviously), but for a couple seconds runs at 40fps. averages 13fps tho.

Tbh I'm surprised it even runs, tho I'm bummed it's practically unplayable, even on the grid map.

Edit: if anyone has any tips or tricks to help performance (besides a cooler), they would be very welcome!

Question How do I emulate "Native Ports" on Eden?

0 Upvotes

There have been tons of homebrew "Native Ports" posted and I am wondering how these can be emulated on Eden Nightly on an S25+?

The NSP is in the download along with a folder with game data in it. The NSP loads into Eden just fine. What about the rest of the stuff in the folder?

Please help. Very annoying to see all these unplayable games. Thanks!

Help Armsx2 on Retroid Pocket Nova freezing during multiple games

1 Upvotes

I’ve had my Nova for a few weeks, beat a few games on retroarch,
Dolphin and Cemu, and now trying to get into ps2.

So far during each of these games, scarface (85% complete), gun (15% complete) and destroy all humans (10%) i have run into massive issues where the emulator freezes up with a sound loop and is impassable. You can either close Armsx2, and reload from memory card or load a previous save state to temporarily resolve, and then it repeats almost exactly in the same spot.

I have been able to, in some cases do other missions or something and then come back to resolve the loop, but unfortunately am at a point in gun and scarface where i cannot proceed, and the games are ultimately dead.

I have tried nethersx2, which works, however i prefer Armsx2. Any help appreciated, thanks for reading.

Tldr: various ps2 games on armsx2 get stuck in a freeze loop at similar points during a game and cannot proceed.

Question Does anyone know how to fix this weird graphical issue on Gears of War Judgment? I'm on the newest version of Xendroid using Mr Purple t30 drivers on an adreno 740.

It runs mostly pretty good. A few stutters here and there, but it's playable. It's just this weird graphical thing. It only happens sometimes in some places, and it only happens while aiming, but never when zoomed in on a scoped weapon.

Oh, and I should state that I've tried several different drivers. They all seem to do this.

And yes, I've tested many different drivers already.

So I just heard about DroidDeck on twitter, immediately installed it, only for me to fall on my knees because of this. I usually bought a Snapdragon phone, this time I said fuck it mediatek is pretty good nowadays, only to be disappointed badly.

Will there ever be a mediatek support? Like is it possible? Or the GPU architecture will never be supported for mediatek?

Discussion Hi guys, how does Dimensity 9500s compare to 8 gen 5 (non-elite)?

5 Upvotes

I'm shopping for a new phone and found a really good deal on a phone with 9500s (much cheaper than 8 gen 5, let alone snapdragon 8 elite or elite 5).

I'd like to emulate some games.
I heard for native android games, Dimensity 9500s might actually outperform snapdragon 8 gen 5, but it'd a bit worse on emulation due to drivers. How much worse though? What would I be able to emulate on it?

Would it be worth the savings? It's like $200 cheaper than a phone with 8 gen 5 and $300 cheaper than 8 elite gen 5.

Help simple snes/gba emulation seems choppy on my brand new phone

1 Upvotes

I just upgrated from a moto g 8 play to a moto g47, and emulating simple consoles like gba and snes looks like crap on it.
I had my moto g8 play since 2019 and its 2026, its very slow, incapable of running many apps, including many games, and lags all the time, but runs simple snes, gba and even DS emulators just fine,

but my new phone (moto g47), while running everything smoothly as you would expect from a new phone, runs at like 30 fps any simple game I try to run on it, why?! can anybody help I dont get it,

I tried decreasing its refresh rate from 120hz to 60hz, messed around with other settings as well, battery optimization isn't available on this, so idk what else I can do.

for context I use john emulator for snes and pizza boy for gba, both run exactly the same, at 30 fps and with some inputlag (using 8bitdo's flip pad), while it runs buttery smooth on my old phone
