I built this cabinet several years ago, I started with a Pi 3, then upgraded to a Pi 4 – have run RetroPie and Batocera.
I recently built a new desktop PC and going to use my old build to power this cabinet now. It’s not a modern powerhouse but should be good enough to run most stuff:
- i7-4790K CPU
- 32GB RAM
- GTX 970
- 1 TB SSD
The cabinet has:
- 16:9 1080p monitor
- Tankstick with trackball
- 2 SNES-style USB controllers
- 2 Sinden Lightguns
I’ve never been quite happy with my setup and am hoping that throwing a PC at it will make it easier to set up and customize. I’m wondering if there’s a front-end that can do MAME/Arcade, home consoles, good lightgun support, and potentially even normal PC/Steam games. Can someone recommend a download package that’ll at least get me close to supporting all this? I would prefer something Windows-based.
I’d like the games to be separated out by system, but would also like to be able to set up a couple of different categories like “Lightgun Games” and “Trackball Games”.
What are my options?
