PISS-POOR NOT GOOD
UltraBarbot
Pretty bad. You could get emulators that work better using your browser (emulator JS). You cannot map any of your keybinds, and the keybinds that are preset are arbitrary. My hands gotta move so far. Additionally, the sound is horrendous. No option to save state or fast forward, either. Test your emulator before releasing it.

GREAT APP!!! works perfectly. best way to play ROMS on your school chromebook
rick morty
This app was good I used it for many years but all of a sudden this year in 2024 it just stopped working. The app would either take over 5 minutes to load the game or not load at all. The funny thing is that it only runs mario land 2 and street fighter 2. I have tried everything to fix this but it just doesn't work. If anybody has suggestions to fix this put them down here.

Good but while I was playing golden sun it froze during a battle and it won't let me re open the app without signing out and back in. Pls Fix.
vdnjfvn dnind
eh. dont get me wrong, it's ok. or at least it sorta is. the thing is it runs slow as hell and it most times is slow. 4/5.
xulven
doesnt work anymore 2023 pls fix
Aqua RiCo
I like this emulator. But when I wanna play Mega Man Zero 2, the game and emulator just freeze and I can't do anything anymore. If I close it, I can't open it again. This only happens when Mega Man Zero 2 is loaded.

I like it except I can't load battery files.

Used this as a kid on my old chromebook Still functions as beautifully as the day I left it If you need a nes- gba emulator ...get this it doesnt open in a browser... Very low on file size.. Runs almost perfectly and honestly.. is a banger Get it...Seriously
Creative WØlf
Just got this again and immediately can't play the games I wanted to. They're all nintendo games, so are they not supported? The file says they're nds, but I can't figure out how to change it. They used to work when I downloaded this a long time ago in middle school, but now it doesn't

Probably the best emulator out there for chromebook, however it's not without its issues. The audio is very choppy, there's no option to set a specific aspect ratio, and you can't set your keybinds. The last issue is a pretty big one, as I'm trying to get a friend to try out a game, but all of his controls are scattered across the keyboard, making it difficult to perform basic movement.

I love this app so much. It functions very well, and I've found so many great games to play. The only two drawbacks I have discovered are the fact that there is no way to adjust the sound for the app itself (such as having my Chromebook play Spotify or YouTube in the background and muting the GPemu app), and the graphics on certain games. The graphics issue I have is that with certain older games, like Pokemon Yellow, due to the game graphics originally made for screens that were not backlit, the graphics are bright neon colors that are very hard to look at for long periods of time. That's just a minor inconvenience. However, it would be great if they added the ability to adjust the volume for the GPemu app itself.

Nice Emulator But: The Audio is Little Bit Bad so IDK?
Xabier Madariaga Sanchez
We need cheat codes enabled
Justin T. Beck
Tetris Attack works but sound is a bit choppy though. Can you inform me to the settings menus to tweak audio and or other options? Please?
Dr. Toxic Gaming
Works even with most romhacks of literally any of the listed genre types
School
everytime I try and play a game it comes out as an error.
Carter Swinney
This is BEST emulator for Chromebook! Even my friend asked me to send this app! However, the issue is there is no custom control. What I recommend is to add custom controller and speed adjuster. Other than that, I loved this app!
Nyan Cat
It's really good and runs well on my school computer and most games work! Love it so much but can you please update for like maybe a cheat sheet or to support old chrome browsers?
fat gt
This emulator is great, but I looked through the reviews and it appears nobody else is having the same problem that I have. My saved games just disappear, when I come back to a game I haven't played in a while, the save is just gone, it just resets for no reason. Is this just me? Why is this happening?
MercilessRattler
speed up and custom controls would be nice, but other than that it's good. Back in the day you couldn't speed up or change controls so there's no reason to complain about that. Also, you can use the rest of the keyboard too. You don't have to use a b x y. I use z for b, x for y, c for a, and v for x.
Robotomize
I don't really care about reviews for things but this is one of the best emulators for the gameboy on chrome book. Only issues are the Ability not to customise the controls. Other than that amazing! (For the people who want to reset tap the touch pad with two fingers to go to the menu of the app)
redheaded peperjack998
its good but i have 2 problems the first one is that theres no way to start the game over and the second problem is that theres no way to speed the game up but besides that its good
the blackman
it's ok really the only downside is that all of the buttons are switched and what not a way to customize buttons would be helpful also a fast forward option would be great
Brianna Lavendier_23
Great emulator for ChromeOS. I've actually been using this emulator since 2016ish, and it performs the same as it did back then. The audio for the emulated games is still as glitchy/laggy as it was 6 years ago, but that's far from a dealbreaker when it's literally an emulator running on a cruddy 9 year old Chromebook. A nice feature would be custom button mapping, as I've noticed that the A and B buttons seem to be switched for me (the A key functions as B in-game and vice versa). Overall, pretty great for when I'm bored during school.
Chase Britton
how do i go onto setting plz help me i dont know how to and it works great i like to play pokemon fire red and i love it its just i dont know hot to on to setting for the app so i cant mute it
Kayd Nance
so its an okay emulator but when playing the game being able to change the controls would be nice.
Miriam Ramos
This Honestly Pretty Good But The Controls Are The Opposite And The Sound, Sounds Weird
Max Kirchgessner
I have tried tens of emulators and so far this is one of the best ones Pros: Very simple and easy to use Support for many different types of roms Cons: Audio is pretty much unuseable Unmapable controls Lack of N64 support Overall its was ok but there are glaring setbacks
Rohan Mukhija
The whole reason I installed this was because I wanted to use cheats, but i cant seam to find a way to.
lumber
nothing worked for me
Air Moccasins
It works well and I enjoy it but the only issue i have with it is that when I play a game like pokemon emerald the screen gets fuzzy and I have no idea how to fix it? Can someone help me fix it if you know how to?
Danush
im unable to uninstall it. if i try, my google tab just closes. it has a virus. pls help me
Ez Dubs
I LOVED this app it let me play the old Pokemon games and experience other games from the old consoles too. The only problem with this app is the fact that I cannot seem to find a volume setting, I need to turn my system volume up or down and this is not good when you are listening to something else on your same system such as a podcast or in a call with some friends. Other than that this emulator is 5/5
Kurt St.Martin
the quality of the emulation is ok but the audio is atrocious making this just a no go for me. if you know how to fix that pleas tell me
Arhum Khan
Its good but the only games that you can play for pokemon are like up to gen 3 hoenn games i want to play Pokemon black or white and it just does not work
Conor Glasnapp
it seems to run pokemon emerald but it keeps resetting when i press new game and the audio sucks
Yuri Calim
it's 100% working
Julius Gelilang
This kind is emulator can support all chrome os devices. I like to play with classic games but the problem is the sound. To developer please fix this issue about the sounds problem.
Ben Olson
It's good
ShallowRex
is there a way to change the controls
Justin Barnes
Great overall, but I accidentally entered sleep mode in minish cap and now there's no way to get out.
Jesse Fabela
For some odd reason I can't run NES, GB, or GBA games on here. idk why can someone help? I'm on a chromebook btw
Skuzz
Honestly, besides the audio, this is actually dope. Still fun to play, sometimes a little lag spike every now and then, but its still really fun. I would recommend this, but I hope choppy audio is something you don't mind. For me, gameplay is everything..
Colin E
The controls SUCK there's not even a chart what the keys are. and where's the Select button? I can't find it anywhere.
tpmetpmet
