This is the best guide I've watched. Thank you. I setup the Pi5 twice and was never satisfied and about to abandon retro gaming until I saw your video on Batocera and now it is so much playable. I also ordered a Linden handgun with recoil. My wife will kill me for the unexpected purchase but it is sooo worth it. :)

I'm having a horrible time trying to get gamecube games to run on Batocera Pi5 (Dolphin), even at 1x using Vulcan - very, very choppy. Any tips you could recommend on getting these things to run at playable speeds? Great guide btw. All of the older stuff (Dreamcast, SNES, etc) seems to be running perfectly.

It may be that the card is defective. Try re-formatting the microSD using this: wagnerstechtalk.com/common/#Format_as_FAT32_Pi_Imager . Then, try re-imaging. If it still doesn't work, I'd try a different microSD. What brand are you using, if you don't mind?

Hey there! I'm hoping that although this video is a few months old now, before I go through all the roms/bios "issues" that can often take some time, I was wondering if hypothetically speaking, if I owned an rg35xx with all of the roms and bios for that, if they would transfer directly to the roms and bios as a "copy/paste" method from the sd cards in the Anbernic RG35XX to the Pi 5 8gb or if due to different board/chip architecture, if somehow this method would not work? If you see this and can get back to me, please let me know. I think this would save many of us handheld users the trouble of finding separate rom/bios catalogue/libraries and just allowing a library of each to function for both a pi 5 emulation station as well as our rg35xx/whatever else handhelds. Thanks in advance, despite the answer being good or bad news lol!

Often yes, you can copy the bios/roms from an existing device to another. I've done this several times over the years. Those type of files are independent of the underlying architecture being used to run them.

2 important CONS for batocera on the pi5 compared to retropie or even other pcs running batocera. 1. Batocera on the pi5 does NOT support ps2. 2. Batocera on the Pi5 does NOT support flatpaks or Wine, so you wont be able to install web browsers, windows games, steam, etc.

I've used a USB to VGA adapter on an older Arcade cabinet using RetroPie years ago and that worked well. I've not personally tried that with Batocera, but it may work too. Some tinkering and perhaps reaching out on the Batocera Discord, if any additional drivers are needed, may be necessary.

Hmm thanks for this. I was over complicating this. Sounds like i need to use my xbox 360 controller, have it plugged into the port first before having it boot. I was just trying to use a USB keyboard to move around the menus on the PI to find the bluetooth menu, nope, key bindings don't work... Some keys do work, just not the arrow keys. Thanks man, I'll give it a go with my 360 wired controller to start with and then attempt to pair some other wireless ones. Does the USB keyboard have move arrow and enter functionality whatsoever to add controllers?

Hey, you're very welcome! You certainly can use the keyboard. Here's some that I can remember from within Emulation Station: F1 = Built-in File Manager ENTER = Menu Select = A Back = B / ESC Arrows = Up/Down/Left/Right Hotkey = C (may be wrong on this) I'm sure there are others that I'm overlooking.

What do you think raspberry pi 5 or beelink mini pc for running batocera?
@WagnersTechTalk
2 ай бұрын
It really depends on the type of games you're wanting to play. If you're looking playing games starting around 2001 upwards, then a mini PC will perform a bit better. Otherwise, the Pi5 will suffice. Keep in mind, this is just a ball-park estimate. There are many games created beyond 2001 that will play just fine on the Pi5 with Batocera and it will continue to receive enhancements. Also, if you're interested in virtual pinball, VPX Standalone is included in the x86 builds and not yet available on the Pi5. Another point to consider.
