Android (ARM64 and x86_64)1.0.8Android APK

v1.0.8: smooth motion at your screen's full refresh rate (144, 165, 240 Hz), save import from other emulators, a newer engine, a MOTHER 3-styled in-game menu, widescreen fixes, the launcher for the Japanese ROM and every translation, and RetroAchievements on Android. What's new

Features

  • MOTHER 3's own launcher: the party walks through the crossroads outside Tazmily, drawn from your ROM (no game art ships); it also handles first-time setup
  • On-screen buttons in the game's text match your controller (Xbox, PlayStation or Nintendo) or keyboard
  • Controls page for keyboard and controller; the left stick always moves
  • Mods: drop .ips, .bps or .ups patches in the mods folder and tick them in the launcher
  • 16:9 widescreen in the field (drawn from the real map), in battles and in cutscenes
  • Window flavors, display, scaling and screen-color options; a Windows bezel built from your ROM
  • Built-in high-quality audio mixing

Project status

Released and actively maintained. Project metadata follows the recomp.board outline in .recomp.json.

Language patches include Spanish; compatibility and speed vary by patch. HQ Audio mixing is built in and applies automatically to the Japanese ROM and supported fan translations. It changes the game's RNG and moves sound buffers in RAM, so it can be turned off under Settings > HQ audio (Android: the HQ audio switch) for speedruns or RAM tools. Android has separate controls for system bars, display fill and on-screen buttons. Device-specific performance reports remain under investigation.
