How to emulate games on your Raspberry Pi #Gaming #RaspberryPi @xdadevelopers

Though Raspberry Pi boards can fit within the palm of your hands, these tiny computers pack enough horsepower to run a plethora of games. While you shouldn’t expect an ARM-based Raspberry Pi to run graphically demanding games that can tax even the most cutting-edge PCs, they’re quite capable when it comes to emulating games.

An emulator is a tool that allows a device to mimic the functionality of another system. Typically used for retro gaming, emulation lets users run games that don’t have official ports on modern hardware. If you’re new to emulation or aren’t familiar with the Raspberry Pi ecosystem, installing emulators and adding ROMs can seem rather intimidating.

XDA Developers has a detailed guide on how to make an all-in-one emulation device out of your Raspberry Pi. The emulation packages covered:

  1. Batocera
  2. Lakka
  3. Recalbox
  4. RetroPie
