My Little Retropie

Skyrunner65 Wed Mar 04, 2015 3:58 am

You guys are probably getting tired of seeing my awful projects, and I understand that. If you are, tell me.
But check this out(CRT TV added for better retro effect):

Another emulator, right?
Not exactly...

Just a little project to make a portable emulator that you just plug in and play.
Any of you like it?

If rygar can run there (arcade version) than you have my vote 8-)

I don't know what the problem with MAME is, it doesn't like any roms I give it.
Sorry, not today :( .
However, it can apparently run Neo-Geo games?
If mine was a Raspberry Pi 2, then it could run PS1 and N64 games.

You have to look for an specific rom set (older dumps) for that MAME.
Newer dumps won´t work.

Well, you can run a few n64 games. They were doing n64 before the pi2 was out. You can't run anything special, though. Just some of the most simple ones, and at awful resolution. The only way they could run them acceptably was from the terminal, without opening the gui.
I'm going to (attempt to) make some form of Retropie for CHIP when I get it. It should run a little better on CHIP. I'll post when I get my intended portable console finished.
