  • GPD Win Max 2021 just arrived - best standalone emulator for each system?
    Check out RetroBat. It uses EmulationStation as the frontend and comes pre-packaged with all kinds of emulators; kinda like RetroPie but for Windows. It uses RetroArch as well as standalone emulators. Source: over 2 years ago
  • LaunchBox or Batocera for a PC emulation box?
    If you're familiar with batocera stick with it. If you're more comfortable in windows use the windows unofficial batocera (that the real batocera team tweets support for). It's called retrobat. Find it here: http://retrobat.ovh/. Source: about 3 years ago

EmulationStation mentions (13)

  • Anyone using a launcher?
    In my opinion the ideal situation would be a backend that any developer could build a frontend to that would suit their approach. For example there are many Retroarch frontends like Highscore, EmulationStation, etc. These all suit the needs for what some person may want. Source: about 1 year ago
  • SteamDeck Windows 11 Guide - Installed Win 11 on the SteamDeck and don't know what to do next? This is for you.
    Replacement for the epic EmuDeck. It utilises EmulationStation. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Is there a user interface that will load all roms from NES up through GameCube?
    I use EmulationStation on a lot of devices. It would cover what you're looking for. Other frontends I like are RetroArch and Daijisho. Source: over 1 year ago
