      I needed some help for installing my custom game. The game is coded in .js format(i getting developer to do it for me) but im wondering how can i install my game into raspberry pi(or retropie)?

      Also any recommendation on which model of raspberry pi i should get?

      It could really use some help for me to know the steps as im new to this.

        @lynn I don't think any of the Emulators shipped in RetroPie support JavaScript based games (if your game is programmed in JavaScript), you'd need a browser to run it. RetroPie does not ship with a browser, but you can add it by installing the Pixel desktop and then adding the Chromium package. This way you can test if the game runs.

          i see, cause this project im working on now required to be play on web browser(thus the .js format) and also on an arcade machine(where my problem come in, the installation on raspberry pi)

          So this mean my developer will need to code in perhaps in a coding language that can both run on web and in retropie ?
