I used the common OSMC distribution in this guide; it’s based on Kodi and has a native support for OMXPlayer. It also comes with a slick user interface that makes it simple to use and really stunning to look at.

Retro-Game Console

With Pi, you can have your complete retro game console with old-school controllers up and running in less than ten minutes. All you’ll require to do is install the OS on your SD card and perform a simple file sharing from your computer.

You need to note that emulating old-school video games needs the following:

· Game ROMs

· An emulator to play them (an application that can play the ROM)

· Controller- such as:

Buffalo Classic USB Gamepad for PC

8bitdo NES30 Controller

8bitdo NES30 Pro Controller

NOTE:

In case you are completely new to this, an emulator (for our purpose) is software that is pre-programmed to behave nearly the same way as the hardware of an older video game system. It basically uses software to simulate the original circuitry of the console. Since most computers don’t have a slot to read data from the cartridges of old video games, hobbyists have copied the video game data into files known as ROM images.

Your raspberry device will boot into a program running off an SD card called RetroPie which enables you to use a controller to choose an emulator and a game without touching a mouse or a keyboard. Once everything is set up, you will be able to navigate and do all you want to do on the Pi from a controller.
