      Do you guys think it is possible to somehow adapt RetroPie on Banana Pi M3 or ODROID-UX4? Im curious cos they are more powerful and i know that RPI3 have almost perfect performance for me so they should definitely be enough for my usage. Did anyone try RetroPie on something other then Raspberry Pi X?

        Dunno...But i will in a week or two. M3 on order intend to build a retro box (probably on top of Ubuntu) with Kodi and a 2TB sata drive. I also have a raspberry pi retro kit on order to compare with. I will let you know how it goes.

            ODROID-UX4 doesn't work out of the box but it is being worked on and hopefully will have official support in the future:

            https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/8872/odroid-xu4-and-retropie

            I believe Lakka runs on it now.

            Older Odroid's do run RetroPie:
            https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Odroid

            I don't believe RetroPie has ever had support for the Banana Pi's (but I could be wrong).

            Does the M3 use an x86 proc? If so then RetroPie might work on it with x86 Ubuntu.
            update it uses the Arm v7 proc but the chipset is from Allwinner and I think I read somewhere on here that the devs aren't a fan of that company because of closed source/specs they use.
