    nes - FCEUmm, SNES - SNES9x, works with 99% of all games Genesis/segaCD/mastersystem - Genesis plus gx, Playstation - PCSX Rearmed, best until swanstaion gets ported, if ever Gameboy/color-Gambette, If you need Super gameboy coloring, then mGBA can do that. GBA - MGBA Hope that helps getting you started, and you can always try another emulator and see how it runs. but these are the best for each system and are the defaults on projects like retropie and batocera

    Ran into the same issue. Solution: after running RA for the first time, exit RA and go to your phone's settings and restart the phone. Once logged back into your phone, go back to Files and the RA folder will be there. I was pulling my hair out with the same issue until I looked it up and found the restart solution on Reddit. They really need to include that in their documentation specifically for iPhones. iPads don't have this issue.
