Looking for an Android emulator (piefed.blahaj.zone)

  • Runs on Android 12
  • Supports, at the very least, GB, GBA, NES, SNES, Genesis, and Game Gear
  • Takes input from physical buttons
  • Lets you hide on-screen buttons

I have a Sidephone with the Mini Controller keypad and I want to play games on it. There's a bespoke (unofficial) emulator for the phone called SideRetro, but it only supports GB, GBA, NES, and Genesis, and it's vibe-coded, so I'd rather use something else. Tried Lemuroid but it doesn't take input from the physical buttons and can't hide the on-screen buttons.

If separate aren't a deal breaker, I've been using Nostalgia emulators for a while. They work great with my 8bitdo controllers. NES, GBA, GG and GB/C versions are available. No SNES or Genesis, unfortunately.

Not FOSS and not free for the Pro versions, but free versions are available to see if they work for you.
