What are your thoughts on using a raspberry pi as a retro console ?

Pic unrelated

Probably the cactus they're probably going to tell you to get fucked with OP.

It's fine if you want to emulate something from the second generation, but anything else is going to lag to hell and back. SMS and Genesis may run fairly well, also. You can certainly forget SNES, PS1 and N64 emulation. You might be able to get "acceptable" SNES performance, but that's going to include occasional audio stutter and other hiccups.

You may be better off recycling an old desktop and just hooking it up to your television via VGA or whatever output you can support.

Seems to be working pretty peachy for this guy

RPi 3 can emulate Playstation games. You can stop this meme.

I prefer the actual hardware, OP. If you're going to emulate just use your PC.

I own a Raspberry Pi 3. Just because PS1 emulators exist doesn't mean they don't run like dogshit.

Fuck off.
