Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is a great open world classic game! I loved every minute of it even thought it took me several months to complete. I think I ended up with like 230 hours total. I was trying to do all the side missions as well but 1 side mission broke and I could never get it to work.I want to plug the pi back in and work on my setup but I have already been sucked in!
Do you have an NVIDIA graphics card in your PC? If so you could play it on your RPi (setup Moonlight to stream from your PC to your RPi).

I went to Wal-Mart yesterday and I ran across one of those Mini Consoles in a Joystick with a Pac-Man theme for $19.77.
This includes several other retro arcade games but I thought it was interesting that it has an option to start Pac-Man at level 255 so you can have "the chance to play the coveted Level 256!"

I beat R-Type on the master system this week, it was hard to do.
-
@backstander. Interesting price on those pacmans. 1977 ;) they could've bumped the price by 3c and made it it's release year...

Mostly playing "operation get son's bedroom decorated while kids are away for a week" along with updating my pocketCHIP to new OS version (which wipes out all my installs)
-
@backstander I do have nvidia but my GPU's are rather old. I have two gtx 460's still. XD They still do alright but I dont think they are "new" enough to stream steam games. Don't worry though, I have my pc hooked up to my tv right now.

@buddyscott
It looks like you'd need a 600 or better to stream. I just think it's really amazing to be able to play recent PC games on a Raspberry Pi (even though I know my PC is doing all the heavy lifting)! Plugging in your PC to your TV works as well and is probably way easier to setup ;-) -
@backstander I have one of those!

A Pac-Man Mini Console in a Joystick? or an Nvidia graphics card? -
Both, actually.
I was specifically talking about the Pac-Man Mini Console. It's pretty good. I also have a Nvidia GeForce GTX 950.

@itsnitro
Awesome! Are the buttons and joystick good quality on that Pac-Man Mini Console? I was tempted to get one. I wonder if someone could put a Raspberry Pi Zero W in it haha!
I have an Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 and it works very well with Moonlight-embedded on my Raspberry Pi. -
Ah, the joysticks. They are so rigid and just feel weird. It's kinda hard to play pacman with them. Buttons are fine on the other hand. But the joysticks... If you could replace them, that would be sweet.
I'd say you should buy them. Also, maybe a Raspberry Pi 3B would work even better! There's enough space for that. -
Dr. Mario... Dr. Mario... Dr. Mario... Dr. Mario... Dr. Mario... Dr. Mario... Dr. Mario... AHHHHHHH!!!!
