Get the most out of Retrofun

Step-by-step guides with real screenshots from the app — from adding your first game to hosting a four-player LAN night.

Play with friends over LAN

Create a room, invite friends on the same Wi-Fi, and play together with rollback netcode, room codes and spectators.

Let Retrofun walk the grass, win battles and watch for Shinies — then add cheats from 2,269 built-in codes.

Skip slow intros and grinding at up to 8× speed, set a limit per system, and rewind after a mistake.

Tune each console — or a single game — with its own display, speed, core options and arcade DIP switches.

Import files, folders, ZIP and 7Z archives in one go — Retrofun sorts them by console and fetches box art.

Move, resize and fade every on-screen button — or plug in any Bluetooth or USB controller.

Choose sharp pixels, smooth scaling or a CRT look, play in portrait or landscape, and use 120 Hz screens.

What each console needs, which extras Retrofun adds, and how demanding each one is.

PS2 now runs inside Retrofun. What you need, how the menu works and how to get the best performance.
