Description

If u scroll using mouse in retroarch, its strange and does not have much sense

U can just move screen

But actually its big problem for example, scale. U use same interface on android and windows

Interface could be easyli fitted in screen (mostly) with 0.6 scale and without descriptions
image

U do not metion anywhere that retroarch is not designed for PC. No sliders, no reset buttons

From usual Windows user side, its hard to image that start means reset or select means help, its possible to mention this in bottom, but
