ES-DE Favorite

EmulationStation Desktop Edition: a game library frontend that launches all your emulators from one polished interface. The Android version is paid.

When you scrape your games with ScreenScraper, it’s so cool to see game manuals and box art before playing them. It completely changes the experience.

Fast, customizable homebrew game frontend for the Nintendo Switch, with a RetroArch backend and ES-DE media support.

I discovered it when I wanted an ES-DE for the Nintendo Switch.

Algodoo

2D physics sandbox for drawing and simulating scenes with gravity, fluids, springs, optics and more. Great for learning physics.

This app is amazing, and Phun, if you know what I mean.

EmuDeck

Installs and configures emulators on the Steam Deck in one go, with controls, hotkeys and Steam shortcuts set up for you.

It’s so easy to get going with emulation on the Steam Deck with this. It saved me hours.

MultiMC

Minecraft launcher for managing many separate instances, each with its own version, mods, resource packs and settings.

I love how straight to the point it is. There are profiles and mods, and that’s it.

RetroArch

Frontend for emulators, game engines and media players, with one consistent interface and settings across every system.

I don’t use it on its own; I launch it through ES-DE, because it’s hard to configure.
