There is now any game for psx or1 and the Repetitive games

Growing up in the 80's I absolutely LOVED arcade games... all the full-sized arcade classics, plus Atari consoles, ColecoVision, IntelliVision, etc. My family didn't have much money, so we only had an Atari 2600 and a small handful of cartridges. My $5.00 a week allowance didn't go too far at the local arcade. So I always dreamt of one day having an arcade cabinet or two of my own, like Ricky Schroder on the TV series Silver Spoons (other 80's kids will understand this reference).Fast forward a few decades and I've made a casual hobby out of building custom full-sized arcade cabinets for myself, friends and occasional clients using old Windows PCs as the main engine. My biggest brag is being summoned to build a full-sized arcade cab, themed for a major airline's headquarters' break room in exchange for a row of Boeing 737 passenger seats to display in my man cave.Surplus Windows PCs are reliable and easy to find to slap into an arcade cab to play multiple games and platforms. So that's what I've been comfortable with. But they're bulky, inefficient, and laborious as far as getting everything where anyone can walk up and navigate to their favorite platform/game using only joysticks and buttons without getting lost or messing up the settings. In my experience, they (desktops or laptops) run hot during emulation, so the CPU fan seems to always be running full blast, and I get nervous leaving them on for hours/days at a time in a game room-type setup.When the Raspberry Pi showed up on the scene as an alternative I was excited to try it out... a quiet, energy efficient little computer that could run all the games I remember... the size of a pack of smokes... for less than $50... what's not to love?I bought a RPi 3 B+ and a few preconfigured cards on auction sites and tried them out. I would tweak the settings after researching and watching videos online. But somehow I would always end up corrupting the SD card image to the point it would be useless (I'm no engineer or programmer, so perhaps my fault). I got frustrated and threw the RPi the closet and kept making cabs using old Windows PCs and working around all their downfalls.Today I'm down to just one full-sized cabinet at my home that I refuse to get rid of. It has an old laptop hidden inside that runs Windows XP. It works okay but it's clunky to get up and running. It only has the MAME arcade games, I can't play any of the early consoles I used to drool over but could never afford. The CPU fan screams after just a few minutes of play.So I decided to revisit the RPi option one last time. I dragged my RPi3 B+ out of the closet and ordered this card thinking I'd run into the same issues but was so excited when I found out otherwise.Everything's been setup perfectly on this card... it just works. If you've ever played Galaga, for example, on a big HD monitor/TV unfiltered you'll know what I'm talking about... the sharp lines and obvious pixilation look foreign and unauthentic. With this card, the games all look like they would on an old CRT monitor from the 80's. No settings to change. There's subtle blurring and enhancements that make every game look perfect to the period. Brilliant!Finally, I had an issue with some sound settings in certain games where I needed help. I contacted the tech support using the info in the included user manual. They got back to me the same day and patiently walked me through how to resolve the issue to resolution. So nice to see that customer service is not out of style!For me, this purchase was well worth it. Plug & Play compatibility with the RPi3 B+ (CPU and GPU don't even get warm after hours of use). Exceptional interface right out of the box. Overlays that surround the game screens are clean and fun to look at. No headaches. Easy to navigate for anyone who wants to explore the library of games, no worry of messing up the settings. No brainer for me. I love this product. Thanks!

Súper rápido

great

This works very well with the Atari fight stick. No tinkering around with editing the config files using the command line. No need to use ssh or connecting to your raspberry pi through your computer to edit files to get things to work (trackball). The controls are automatically recognized as two fight sticks. The trackball just needs to be configured through the menu in the games you want to use it in.The customer service is fantastically responsive. They directed me to the videos they have posted to configure the trackball. This build simply works. The menu system isn’t as fancy as other builds, but it is very easy to navigate. It also doesn’t chew up the resources like some builds.Yes, i am sure some of us like to tinker with things to get them to work. But there is tinkering that is fun, and then there is just frustration if you cannot get it to work. This works…so tinkering was fun. With anything raspberry pi - i would recommend making a backup image and saving it on drive somewhere before you tinker.

Worked right out of the box with everything it said it would have. This product saves an incredible amount of time and effort.
