If you have a Raspberry Pi and an old tube TV sitting in the basement, this update is mandatory. It bridges the gap between the technical complexity of Linux and the simplicity of a game console. While it might still feel "barebones" compared to the flashy menus of Batocera, its lightweight nature and 1:1 RetroArch integration make it the fastest and most accurate way to play. It brings Seamless CRT Support: The gold standard for analog gaming.Massive Core Expansion: PS2 and 3DS support are huge wins.Modern Kernel: Better stability on modern x86 mini-PCs. What else you can dream of... Was this review helpful? Yes No Version: 4.3 Rating: 10 Date: 2024-01-31 Votes: 11 It's great, easy to use, and updateable/customizable flexible. I've got this setup with a most of the cores and it works great. Just follow the documentation guide and some cores you need to look into as the scan can be adjusted for better results. I've got this setup on Raspberry Pi 3b, a Nuc, Laptops, and tested on a desktop. Works in all regards. Performance varies on the hardware, but a pi3b playing Ps1 and Dreamcast, n64 struggles just a bit, but works great, and ps2 even works on faster hardware. Great distro. I tried recalbox and retropie before settling with cross platform lakka, as I wanted the PC options for more speed. I plan to test pi4/pi5 eventually, which I'm sure will be PC equivalent on performance now. Thanks Lakka team, can't wait for 5.0 hopefully soon, and hoping it will have the nVidia driver support to improve vulkan support. Was this review helpful?

I choose it a year ago for a rpi4 because it was the only one supporting arm64 while experimenting with Vulkan. Was this review helpful? Yes No See all 4 reader reviews of Lakka...
