      @piboy It appears that at best PS2 will be like N64 on pi 3 . Some games work but most don’t.

      You can't beat the classics(unless you copy them).

        @unknown Speed and graphical errors are interchangeable here. If you use the PCSX2 speed hacks to try and get it to run faster, you get more graphic glitches, but speed is the primary issue. Getting through the cutscenes on FF 10 is a grind, but the battles aren't too bad.

        System Config: Retropie 4.4 with full desktop, RPi 3B, 256gb SD, 5v 2.1A 5,200 mAH USB battery. EasyMSX controller mounted with Pimoroni Hyperpixel 4 (non touch). Also running 4.6 on a 4gb Pi 4 serving as my primary desktop computer now.

          I was not a big fan of the HDMI micro for the current Pi 4 but maybe they can offer variations of it with a regular HDMI port instead. I don't know about you guys but its not just about CPU/GPU power but improving stability and functionality. There was a issue at launch with the whole USB power port with the Pi 4. Wither it was Lakka OS or Retropie there is something to be desired from the video out not working at times and needing some configuration.

          Don't discount Pine64's SBC hardware as well, People are getting Retroarch running on their open-source Linux Phones.

          As for the Pi 5 I hope it is not much bigger than what it is, I like it's current and portable size, very travel friendly.
