Best Single Board Computer For Emulation?
-
Im wondering...
Whats the best Single Board Computer for retro emulation?
Is it rpi3, arnt their ones out there with better specs?
Or is rpi3 support better and there for also runs the best?
Not sure if i should save up and hunt down a faster board or wait for rpi 4 and keep the 3 for now since its doing alright.. -
@retrofreak89 better specs mean nothing if there is no software support

Yes i guess Ur right i went with the PI ill be sticking to it the community is amazing support is awesome ill just wait for rpi 4 and deal with this for now ;P
I Just wanted to play N64 but i heard its the emulators that arnt great not the specs its self -
That's the real trick isn't it, having the support I mean. I think people are just eager for a successor to the Pi3 (myself included) and impatience is getting them to seek alternatives, lol. I hope the next board has a better GPU, as the current one has been stretched as far as it can go I'm thinking. For emulating 2nd through 4th generation consoles, RetroPie has compatibility and convenience I haven't seen with any other solution. And PSX emulation is great also on RetroPie. I just find N64, Dreamcast, and PSP to be somewhat lacking, but I think that's mainly because of the limited GPU in the Pi, to say nothing of the DC's robust FPU.
