The most common cores use the [[https://www.libretro.com/|libretro]] API, so that's why cores run in RetroArch in Batocera are referred to as "libretro/(core name)". RetroArch aims to unify the feature set of all libretro cores and offer a universal, familiar interface independent of platform. | [[https://docs.libretro.com/|RetroArch]] (formerly SSNES), is a ubiquitous frontend that can run multiple "cores", which are essentially the emulators themselves.
