Emulator Setup

Cocoon sends each game to an emulator installed on your device.

Choose an Emulator

1. Open Settings → Library & Data → Platforms.
2. Choose a platform.
3. Select its Default Player.

To use a different emulator for one game, press Y → Edit on the game and change Player.

Add a Platform or ROM Folder

Use Add Platform in the Platforms section, then choose its ROM folder and default player. A platform can use more than one ROM folder. Enable Scan Subfolders if the games are stored deeper inside it.

After adding or moving games, use Settings → Library & Data → Rescan Games.

Multi-Disc Games

Create an .m3u file beside the disc files and list one filename per line:

Final Fantasy VII (Disc 1).cue
Final Fantasy VII (Disc 2).cue
Final Fantasy VII (Disc 3).cue

Scan again and Cocoon will show the set as one game. Disc switching is handled by the emulator.

Dual-Screen Launching

Press Y → Launch to choose a screen for one launch, or save a display choice from the game’s Edit menu. Folders can also choose a launch screen for the games inside them.

Problems Launching a Game

• Make sure the emulator is installed.
• Check that it supports the game’s file type.
• Check the platform’s default player and any per-game override.
• Rescan if the game file was moved.

See Compatibility for platform folders and supported file types.
