Good if you like old games

I LOVE this emulator, but the POKEs barely work.

Terrible not compatible controls

Nothing works regarding the controller. Tried all settings, if you hit a random key here or there on virtual keyboard it might do something. Was really excited that I could play hardball but no go! Click bait!!!
