      So I've set up a totally new Raspberry Pi 3 with RetroPie manually installed on top of Raspbian. It's currently only connected to the power with no other cables attached. I'm logging in via SSH and VNC protocols do to the fun stuff. How can I remotely play games from my main computer with the Raspberry Pi not physically attached to my monitor (don't really want to keep switching HDMI cables)? I'm looking to stream EmulationStation to my PC. Any help would be appreciated!

        Dont think you can stream it. Why dont you just install Emulationstation for the PC? You can even run it off a USB or SD Card if you prefer. Performance will be better than Pi3 also.

          @Abs Thanks for your answer! I wasn't even aware of the fact that EmulationStation also came for PC itself. Pretty silly that I didn't look into this. Cheers!
