Retropie project

The RetroPie Project is a collection of works that all have the overall goal to turn the Raspberry Pi into a dedicated retro-gaming console. The project uses Raspbian as OS at the bottom and integrates a large set of emulators for a wide variety of computer systems from the past decades. Besides the emulators, also a graphical front end and a lot of other software features are part of the project to let your nostalgic memories revive. The RetroPie Setup Script is a central piece of software for the installation and configuration of these components. There exists an SD-card image with a complete installation by the RetroPie Setup Script that comes with all supported emulators and functions. Besides the software aspects the RetroPie Project also consists of a solution for connecting certain original game pads directly to the Raspberry Pi.
