About this game Read the full description

Stella is a free, open-source emulator for one of the most popular and influential home video game consoles of the 1970s and '80s. This emulator was originally developed for use on the GNU/Linux operating system but has, over time, been ported to many different platforms, including libretro, which allows it to play through the RetroArch gaming and multimedia system.

Over the past couple of years, the Stella development team has made great strides in mimicking the many quirks of Stella's target console, making it compatible with many difficult-to-emulate games, homebrew software and demos.
Through RetroArch, you can bring a modern touch to this classic emulator, with support for real-time rewind and RetroAchievements, as well as RetroArch's best-in-class shaders for CRT display emulation and more.
