Yaba Sanshiro 2 and Yaba Sanshiro 2 Pro have been added, but they do not work to launch games on Android 11+.

Please hit us up on the LaunchBox forums if you know otherwise or have any further information.
Dolphin MMJR is now the default emulator for Nintendo GameCube and Nintendo Wii, because it is so much better with performance
Support for Dolphin MMJR2 has been added as well, but it is not recommended for most users because it has been abandoned in favor of Dolphin MMJR
Added a new option to the MAME imports to skip games that require a CHD file; this is ideal for mobile devices because the CHD files increase the ROM set space requirements from 66 gigs to roughly 500 gigs, and only around 120 games actually require a CHD, so it's usually better to omit the CHDs for mobile devices that run MAME
Games are now sorted more similarly to how they are in the desktop apps, ignoring articles like "The", "A", and "An"
M3U playlists are now used for games with multiple discs (to allow for easy disc switching) when launching RetroArch with the following cores: duckstation, swanstation, mednafen_psx_hw, mednafen_psx
Added a new option to "Quit RetroArch on Losing Focus" to the platform emulator settings; this option will help to ensure that new games will be launched properly even if a previous game is still running in RetroArch.

Deleting a platform will now optionally delete all media (including videos) instead of just images

A new Background Fade option is available in the wheel and text list games view settings that will allow you to control how dark the background video or background image is
New Background Video and Stretch Background Video options are available in the wheel and text list games view settings
Performance on lower-end devices (such as the Nvidia Shield) is much improved during navigation
Support for the dreaded new Android file permissions model has been added; devices that are running Android 11 or higher will now be prompted to allow access to all files on startup, which is necessary in order to properly launch some emulators
Launching the newest versions of Dolphin, Snes9x EX+, Citra MMJ (the Storage Access Version), Mupen64Plus FZ, and Mupen64Plus FZ Pro now work properly on Android 11+ (once again you can thank Google for repeated poor design decisions causing these unnecessary issues)
