      Hi!
      I was wondering if it was possible to generate a summary of games played on Retropie in a similar way one can keep high scores between games (or a different way).

      I would be interested by things like:

      • Game names (can be the name of the rom played)
      • Date/time of game start
      • How many minutes/hours was the game played for?
      • How many players played (like 1p or 2p)..but maybe it gets hard if it keeps on changing during the same game?
      • Maybe more simple would be number of coin push, 1p vs 2p . But then I know I push a lot at once and stop before all my 'credits' are used ;-)

      Thank you.
      Fred

        For the first 3 points, you cn use https://github.com/langest/RetroStats, created by @langest. For the rest, I don't think it's possible to get that info outside of the emulator.

          Thanks a lot for the response. Indeed Retrostats is definitely almost (if not all - only had a very quick look) giving everything I want.
          Not sure why, I didn't get any email notification so just found out about your answer today (as I have another question).
          So thank you again and I'll switch over to retrostats for now :-)
