EmulationStation is Now on Android! And it’s AMAZING.

ES-DE (EmulationStation Desktop Edition) has been ported over to Android, and it provides a seamless, robust frontend experience that rivals any other frontend out there. In this video I’ll show you how to install and configure the app, plus how to make it your primary launcher, too.
