Dedicated Retropie Linux x64 Image.
-
Hi. I have a idea:
I think the creators of the retropie should make a universal image for linux PC x64, just like it was for RPI.
Is there such a possibility? -
@wmarcio I think the possibility is there, but retropie is defaulted at i386, so that would be more likely the aim instead of x64
-
@Drakaen391 retropie doesn't target x86 over x86_64. In fact more testing happens on 64bit.

@BuZz I was going of the docs
https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Debian/This will install the main packages which are equivalent to what is provided with the RetroPie SD image. Note that this will be the 32-bit version of RetroPie. That means that some emulators such as Daphne (Dragon's Lair) will not work out of the box on this version. That is because Daphne and a few other emulators only have a 64-bit version released for use while this install is for the 32-bit CPU family. -
The documentation page needs to be rephrased - while some emulators only have a 32/64 bit version, RetroPie works on both x86 and x86_64.
