RetroPie allows you to turn your Raspberry Pi, ODroid C1/C2, or PC into a retro-gaming machine. It builds upon Raspbian, EmulationStation, RetroArch and many other projects to enable you to play your favourite Arcade, home-console, and classic PC games with the minimum set-up. For power users it also provides a large variety of configuration tools to customise the system as you want.
RetroPie sits on top of a full OS, you can install it on an existing Raspbian, or start with the RetroPie image and add additional software later. It's up to you.
For those who are born in 60s 70s and 80s or even 90s this emulators are pandoras box of memories and by using RetroPie it helps relieve vivid childhood memories. Come on! grab yourself a Raspberry Pi and be child again!
