@JimmyDansbo After testing with the official repo i updated the script to point to it and it exits the emulator fine with ALT + F4 so that's perfect. Just need to work out how to squeeze better performance out of the Pi as i only tested a handful of games getting them in game and then closing the emulator.

I would say it's on par so far with the Sega Dreamcast, Sega Saturn which means it can be used but it's certainly not ideal and it also depends on a per game basis. I ran a text based adventure on the Pi and it ran ok and completely usable but one of the space games it was sluggish both in game play and sound and was a little distracting from the enjoyment.

I'm wracking my brain to figure out what could be done to squeeze a little more performance out of i, even if we got 5/10% extra it would be something although ideal if we can get closer to 95-100%. I'll report back when i find a solution or something.
