RetroAssembly Updated to Version 5

RetroAssembly just dropped v5—and if you’ve ever lost a save because your browser died, this is the update you’ve been waiting for.

Auto-save? Check. Now it quietly pockets your progress every few minutes (though you can turn it off if you’re into suffering). No more “I was this close to beating Bowser!” tears. Plus, the search bar got a brain transplant—it remembers your favorite games and serves them up like a caffeinated librarian.

Shader lovers, rejoice: 29 new visual filters just landed. Want your NES games to look like they’re viewed through a 1987 CRT? Done. Want your SNES to feel like it’s glowing through a lava lamp? Also done. And yes—you can assign different shaders per system. Because why settle for one nostalgic aesthetic when you can have six?

But the real game-changer? Multi-user support. Self-hosters can now turn a single Docker container into a full family gaming hub—each person gets their own library, saves, and settings. No more fighting over who last played Metroid. It’s like Plex for your ROMs… but with more pixel art and less subtitles.

Grab it via Docker or just use the hosted version. Your NES deserves this upgrade.
