Adventurers, thanks for waiting! This update took longer than usual, but it’s absolutely worth it—Manic EMU now supports RetroAchievements. Huge thanks to the RA team for their thorough review work, making hardcore achievements possible!
We’ve also added Dreamcast support, with special thanks to @JoeMatt of Provenance for building the JITLess core, and to @flyinghead, the original core developer.
And of course, big gratitude to all emulator core developers and our early-access subscribers who tested and shared feedback—Manic EMU wouldn’t be the same without you!
Important:
To support RetroAchievements, several cores have been upgraded (GB, GBC, GBA, SNES, MD, MS, GG, SG-1000). As a result, old save states created with previous versions will no longer be compatible. Please make sure to convert your save states into in-game saves before updating to v1.7.0 to avoid losing your progress.
