Retroarch 1.2 released
Posted: Thu Jul 09, 2015 10:00 am
After last years retron 5 debacle, the libretro team has upped the ante. The new Retroarch addresses alot of complaints from the past. Its leaner, faster, you can cherry pick cores from the program, there are better gui's (one thats prettier and one that is a cross media bar/xmb like), cheats, box art, and a whole host of tweaks and shaders.
Here is a video of someone playing Turtles in Time on it:

I installed it last night and had some issues on install, but the nightly release fixed that. I played through a bit of some Game Gear games and was presently surprised. It ran better than the old retroarch on my laptop, and the shaders I goofed around with were very nice. I did not have a .cht or boxart database to link to it, but I will do that this weekend.
