  • ChimeraOS: Instantly turn any PC into a gaming console
    A similar project is Ludo [1] which is part of the libretro family. More for emulation but really a clean UI (it actually has screenshots) [1]: https://ludo.libretro.com/#about. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
  • Building a Linux arcade machine
    Linux Mint is fine. You'll want to modify it to start using something lighter than Cinnamon (I suggest OpenBox); 4GB of RAM means that KDE and GNOME/Cinnamon are not going to be fun, and as you're using it for arcade games, you don't need much more than a launcher for Steam/RetroArch/EmulationStation/Ludo/Lutris/etc. Source: 11 months ago
  • Why RetroArch?
    Have a look at https://ludo.libretro.com/ if you can't work out RA. Source: 12 months ago
  • Gaming Console Recommendations
    MULTI EMULATORS (basically one program that handles a bunch of consoles) I would advise you to avoid frontend or multi emulators like mame or retroarch, Because they could be intimidating if you start in this area To start with a frontend multi emulator, I recommend this one witch is beginner friendly and have a good documentation Ludo emulator.

  • I'm coding an GameBoy emulator in Godot. I'm not quite sure why, I thought it'd be a fun side project lmao. The CPU is fully implemented, so now it's onto actually displaying stuff. Wish me luck!
    There's a spin-off of Retroarch that I think is way better called Ludo. It's basically a less confusing version of Retroarch with a really clean UI! Source: over 1 year ago
