RetroArch version 1.8.5 available, now features new Ozone style menu

RA1-100.jpg

RetroArch just got a facelift, in a brand new 1.8.5 update. The latest version of the emulator frontend offers a new menu option, stylized after the Nintendo Switch's "ozone" menu. For those of you used to the looks of the XMB (PS3) style, fear not, as you can revert back to that in the options, under settings>drivers. A major bug has also been fixed in this update--users who were previously unable to boot RetroArch on certain Chromebooks should now be able to without issue. In addition, many smaller bugfixes were made, along with better performance on Linux via OpenGL. Feel free to check out the official changelog below, or grab the new version from the source below.

1.8.5

Is this reverse logic? when I am out I am doing adult things, working and the like. No time for gaming then young man, please refrain from diverting the thread any further from it purpose.

Except that I see Switch players on break all the time...
