First, here is a link to the OS. https://www.lakka.tv http://www.lakka.tv/videos/menu.mp4 <-- what the OS looks like If you have not yet heard of Lakka, it is an OS centered around retro gaming. Packed with it are a set of emulators for famicom, nes, snes, PS, Genisis, and few others. As the OS is matured more and more I assume that more emulators will be added. Since it is a linux distro I guess you could also add Dosbox and whatever else you wanted installed on the set of hardware you wanted to put it onto. As it is now it isn't meant for desktops as a normal user would have, though a virtual machine or KVM slot could certainly be used for it. Why not just get visualboy advance to play pokemon? I dunno. Currently mini-PC type systems are available for install, making that Raspberry pi the perfect thing to use for gaming. Not only the pi is supported though, pi 2, PCDuino, and other types of mini-PC's are useable with the distro. The site has very well set instructions for windows, mac,. and linux users for installation of the OS on SD cards depending on the users system (now if only there were BSD specific instructions :P). There is also support for basic PC controllers, as well as xbox 360 and playstation controllers so that users don't have to go out and buy new ones that were specifically assigned for the OS. Personally, right now my PSP does good emulation for me and I have systems for other games. While I may not use this right now, someday I will have a nice big flatscreen TV and I'll want to play a slew of NES games. I can see myself using this OS in the future.

Crotch Fruit posted:Looks interesting, although I am not at all a fan of the websites graphical design style. The icons in the preview just look weird and the color choices are horrible, but of course that has little do with the rest of the project. As I said it is linux, so it could be edited as such. Also I assume that more additions will be added later on. It is definately something to look forward to :3
