The complete list of consoles that you can emulate with ease includes: PSP, PlayStation, Nintendo 64, Nintendo DS, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, Gameboy Classic, NES, SNES, Sega Megadrive (Genesis), Game Gear, Master System, Sega Saturn, Sega CD, SNK Neo-Geo, Neo-Geo CD, Neo-Geo Pocket, Atari 2600, Atari 5200, Atari 7800, NEC TurboGrafx, 3DO and ColecoVision.
Download cores directly from the emulator
The first thing you need to do to play ROMs with ClassicBoy Pro is download the cores of the emulators you want to use. Luckily, this process is as simple as opening the drop-down menu on the left, clicking the Install Cores button, and choosing the cores of the consoles you want to emulate. After a few seconds, you will have all your emulators ready to go.
Unlock Premium to access more features
Although ClassicBoy Pro is free, some features are only available if you unlock the full version of the emulator. You decide how you prefer to do it: you can continue to subscribe to the Premium version for as long as you want or unlock the emulator for life. The full version offers a number of benefits, among which is the possibility of saving the game automatically when you quit.
A number of ways to find ROMs
As is the case with all emulators, ClassicBoy Pro doesn't come with any ROMs. That being said, in the Game Library tab you will find a complete list with all the video games available for each of the platforms supported by the emulator. And, within this list, you can find links that make it easier to find these ROMs, in case you want to download them to your Android device. What's more, all games are shown with their respective cover art and screenshots.
Several settings options
In the settings, not only can you customize the controls for each console, but you can also connect console controllers to your device. Simply use Bluetooth to link a PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 controller to your Android device. Once this is done, you can play any of the games in the emulator with your gamepad of choice. Of course, you can also adjust the graphics options for each emulator individually.
A complete retro emulation suite
Download the ClassicBoy Pro APK and discover a powerful Android emulator that lets you emulate a whole host of different platforms with one app. The Premium version, which can be purchased from the app itself, allows you to save the game at any time using several different 'save states'. This is undoubtedly one of the best options on Android for true emulation fans. However, you do need to be careful with mod apk versions of ClassicBoy, since many of them are not official.
Requirements (Latest version)

Comments
In the lite version of the ClassicBoy application on the Play Store, I couldn't load my Crash Bandicoot save data, but I think with this version I will be able to load the data.
The only real way to use on Quest (check all variants)
The emulator is excellent!
I made the payment for the full version of the app, but it did not unlock any advanced features as promised. Waiting for a response from Google and the app developers.
