In the meantime the PS4 community followed the emergence of a new PS2 port of RetroArch as some ps2 homebrew can be played v ia emulation and in the 5.05 ps4 via a PS2 Classic convert, This gave a small taste of RetroArch emulation in a limited capacity on the PS4. Various developer's such as frangarcj & bigboss wer e showing the initial progress and private builds of the port's early progress and then development seem to come to a slow-down without much news surrounding it. (Original Article r1) RetroArch for the PS4 was in development around this time last year, if you recall. The libretro team has already expressed support. Stay tuned as this is port is sure to mature even more with time and likely become an official release sooner or later for the RetroArch project. You have to really stop and look the PS4 now has 37 different things it can now run that was not possible a couple weeks ago. The PS4 homebrew scene looks in alot better position then it did weeks ago. That is a welcomed bug to be squashed as now playslist/collections/favorites ect. Also a bug other's and myself experienced has been addressed, the issue being (in r1) where we could not launch any content in other locations, such as in playlist has now been fixed in the r2 release. The new n64 core does offer some small speed improvements from parallei_64 and may still need some improvements to come in the future hopefully (please share your results/feedback below, which games are working for you?). This forum thread, for example, has great settings for the ideal NES and SNES experience. Check out our guide to RetroArch’s advanced features if you really want to get the best experience.(Update R2 released) Developer is back with release 2 of the PS4 port of RetroArch, this unofficial port (based on v1.8.1 of the main project) now contains 37 libretro cores adding an additional 12 since the initial release, those cores include the arcade core FBA & also a Sega Saturn Yabause (curious how that compares to the standalone from znullptr), while N64 emulation still needs some work the parallel_64 core included in v1 has seen a new companion and n64 offering in the addition of the Mupen64 core. You don’t have to go in and tweak this stuff, but power users will love diving in and making everything work just right. Power users should also check out the “Settings” tab, where you’ll find the Video, Audio and a variety of other settings.
