What is it?

EmuSuNi is a homebrew app for jailbroken PS4 consoles running GoldHEN. It bundles libretro-based emulators for twenty systems, from the NES, Super Nintendo and Game Boy family through the N64, PlayStation, DS, 3DS, PSP and Dreamcast to Saturn, PC Engine and arcade boards such as Neo Geo, CPS and NAOMI. All consoles run inside one process, and the app presents them as a console-style library with box art downloaded automatically.

Beyond launching games, the app offers an in-game menu opened with L3 + R3 for save states, settings, controls and cheats. It supports RetroAchievements on most consoles, HD upscaling filters (such as xBRZ, Anime4K and AMD FSR) for the 2D and 3D emulators, bezels, and per-game or per-console settings. Users must supply their own games, and some systems such as Neo Geo, NAOMI, Atomiswave and Saturn require BIOS files they obtain themselves.

The project is written in C++ and uses Vulkan for rendering on the PS4 GPU. Installation is done by copying a .pkg file to a USB drive and installing it with GoldHEN's Package Installer. The source includes build scripts for an Ubuntu 24.04 environment with a PS4 toolchain.
