The last time I tried emulation on a desktop PC, whether it was Windows or Linux, I had to install each emulator separately. It was a bit of a mess.

On my Steam Deck, Emudeck made it stupid easy. Retroarch wasn’t terrible, but was a bit more irritating and buggy for me to get working. Either way, it had a bunch of emulators all in one spot so I didn’t have to go hunting for a ton of them. Are there solutions like this for Linux as well now? What about for Windows or something like a RetroPIE?

    Sudo is still needed for EMUDeck afaik. This also installs the different emulators seperately.

    To much clutter imoho and I dont like sudo scripting as well.

      Ahh, yeah that’s about what I remember. Too messy for me. This sounds like it’d be better as an actual package (apt/pacman) then.
