Oh, nice, turns out you're shitting on all Switch threads.
Not only do you not know what you're talking about, you're completely incorrect.
This can be used to launch the retroarch SNES core. Don't say what you don't know.
And then what? You go through the retroarch SNES Core RGUI menu, and launch your rom .zip file out of a list of your other hundred roms?
Double the work, none of the pleasure?
Also - Retroarch will try to consolidate all cores into one .nro binary (downloadable cores), thats been confirmed already. And they will try to put their interface front and center, because - thats really all they care about (see "great new windows gui" release - to push launchbox out of the occasion (whose featureset they badly cloned)).
Also - I believe we simply don't know, that Retroarch will be addressable with command line parameters on the Switch (the things that tell the emulator which game to actually launch). So far it isnt - and I doubt that it will be in the future.
The other part that people have a hard time realizing is, that this "launcher" doesn't come with "all tha covers and game entries - prepopulated" and while Retroarch actually has a game database backend and hooks to scrape and download covers - this ecosystem is missing from this launcher. So all the people currently excited, about a concept thats not proven to ever be working, will then go out on their iPhones and gather gamecovers to be implemented in the launcher?
Or the launcher developer will create their own retroarch fork to make it possible or the Launcher to communicate with the emulator in any way - if command line parameter forwarding turns out to be impossible?
And then we'll have two competing retroarch releases - because of a launcher?

Heck - he even went in this thread and liked all the positive sentiments, without saying a word - while people made up things of "what eventually will be possible - in this port" -- that have nothing to do with this project - and soley depend on how retroarch will develop in the months to come.
This is an animated gif attached to a lousy probability bet.
But don't take the "make believe" candy away from all the excited people out there... I guess. Keep liking folks. YOur emotion is all thats ever needed on the internet.
Especially in dev forums.
(That was sarcasm.)
