[HELP] Change RetroArch time for time-gated content?
We're playing Pokemon Heart Gold/Soul Silver using DeSmuMe, and it uses the system time to dictate the content availabile in those games. So I need the game to think it's 12pm or 6am in real life. Is there any way to change RetroArch's time without having to alter my system time?

An application that I have found useful for this specific case is RunAsDate on windows. On Linux a good option for this is faketime.
I hope this is an useful answer for future users that come along this thread and hopefully it can help you!

I second this request
Same game, funny enough, but still I can't seem to find the local time for the emulation and I'm not so keen on waiting till 10pm to try and find the night-based pokemon.
Any help at all in changing the clock on Retroarch would be greatly appreciated!
