What is Retro Pal?

Retro Pal plays Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS games on iPhone. Import your own game files and the library shows each game's original box art, matched on your device to your regional version.

Highlights:

  • All four consoles in one app, built on the mGBA and melonDS cores
  • RetroAchievements support: unlock achievements, with your badge wall and per-game progress in the app
  • Save states, and battery saves that survive app updates
  • Full game controller support
  • Console skins: play inside a Game Boy, GBA or DS shell, or create your own custom skin
  • Shareable cards for screenshots, clips and play stats
  • Available in 15 languages
  • No ads, no tracking, no account required, no required subscription. An optional one-time Pro upgrade (fast forward, rewind, cheats, custom skin creation) funds development.

iPhone only, iOS 16 or later. Made in Europe.
