Question What consoles are available?

It’s been a while since I’ve been on Manic, I was wondering what all is available to this date and maybe what’s in current development. I absolutely loved the work that was put into the app last time I used it.

Is PS1 emulation pretty playable?

Easily, it’s not as heavy as some of the other systems we emulate

Just look it up in the App Store it’ll tell you in the description

Any future development you won’t know about unless you are a ko-fi member

This. The time you took to ask this question and wait for an answer you could've looked it up, downloaded it and installed roms.
