is bookworm most likly going to be what the next official release is going to be based on?

Yes, being the only one that supports the Pi5.

Nice! Let me know when you have something testable, than for me it’s ok to buy a pi5 and test

[duglor]

@mitu are we likely to see emulators for the gamecube, wii, ps2 and 3ds on the Pi 5? or even the ps vita?

@duglor

You can install lr-dolphin and dolphin emulators, to play Gamecube and Wii games, i can compare performance with N64 on RPi3. Take a look on this topic: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/35203/dolphin-gamecube-wiiware-wii-compatibility-on-pi-5

Vita i don't think it can emulated in Rpi5.
I don't know about 3DS, the situation after shutdown of yuzu affect this project too.

[duglor]

@abj Very nice and thank you for the information. How about PS-2 emulation?
be well!

@duglor It is possible to run some Ps2 games with the use of AetherSX2 emulator but i haven't test it yet.

A scriptmodule is under development, see : https://github.com/Exarkuniv/RetroPie-Extra/pull/181

[ExarKunIv]

@duglor the script is WIP, so it might need some editing and tweaking.

i am testing it

[abj]

I test some games with AetherSX2 and the resuLts aRe better that i expect.

Games that are working fine are:

GTA: San Andreas
Ico
Onimusha 2 (in software mode)
Silent Hill 2
Silent Hill 3
Silent Hill 4
Legaia 2
Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness
Breath Of Fire V (in software mode)

Excuse me folks, but I do have one question regarding the Pi 5. Once we get an official image for the pi 5, will Vulkan be one of the available video drivers? No rush, I’m just curious and I’d thought I ask you.

[abj]

@Rockofan96

I believe yes. Check this commit : https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/3785

[Rockofan96]

@abj Thank you. I’m excited for it.

[JozoBozo]

Guys, when can we expect first ISO image for pi5?

[ExarKunIv]

@JozoBozo there is no ETA
a fellow member has posted that he made one, its somewhere above. right now thats the closet one right now

[retropieuser555]

Thanks for adding the change to the mupen64plus standalone script. That's now building and loading for me successfully.

Testing the standalone mupen64plus I've found I can run games like Majora's Mask, Snowboard Kids, Super Mario 64 at 4x native resolution, so it looks quite nice and higher than the retroarch core is able to handle

Well, I at least got past the error by installing Python2.7 from these instructions:

On a Pi5 ? Please specify the exact version/commit of the RetroPie-Setup script and not the generic everything is updated/latest version.

[TPR]

@mitu Sorry will do once it's done updating from source and I can get back to retropie-setup. But I had just done a full update of everything from the retropie-setup right before this. It is installing lr-mame2016 now:
