Update: I got an HDMI cable and RetroPie works wonderfully. Now, I just need to get ROMs.
Remember the bios files too depending on the system
Vague statement is vague. BIOs for the Pi or the emulators?
Emulators. I don't think they are legally included in most emulation software.

RetroPie includes all of the emulators. None of the ROMs are included. https://retropie.org.uk/

It doesn't hurt standing.
I finally found a chair that I can sit in pain free. But the sofa is torture.

People who have never had back pain have no idea how bad it is.
I rarely get this, and this is the worst it has ever been.
But yeah it sucks, a lot!

Emulators. I don't think they are legally included in most emulation software.
RetroPie includes just about every emulator that there is. I did check with a couple old ROMs that I had from long ago, and so I have the original Legend of Zelda on there, and working, as well as a couple Atari 2600 games. It would be nice if there was an ability to run a couple PC games, but I'm only just starting out with this so it may have that and I've yet to discover it (I want to put Princess Maker 2 on it for my wife). Ultimately, I'll need some more controllers for the PS2/3 emulators. I also saw that there's a Descent 1 ROM out there, which would be great. I still have my PC cds for that! Loved that game.

I saw my chiro last night. I'm doing really well today in the places he worked, but we didn't do anything for my lower back, so it's all tight like a bunch of week old garlic knots.

It's the bios files and roms that are illegal. The emulators themselves are fine

@Grey If you're in the market for compatible controllers try:
- Logitech F310 (wired)
- Logitech F710 (Bluetooth/Battery Powered)
These are pretty high quality for a reasonable price and I have worked with them myself in regards to the Retropie. Just make sure you're using X Input.

@wirestyle22 Thanks! I'm not sure what controllers I need to collect yet. I already have a pair of classic Nintendo ones (like http://a.co/1PtpfRy) and an old USB controller that I picked up years ago from woot (http://a.co/dW9aLKj) so I'm going to play around with these and see how far I can get.

@Grey The good thing about those controllers is that you don't need an external power supply for them. If you try to use PS3/4 controllers the Raspberry Pi can't power them itself.

I dont know if they're supported by RetroPie, but if it has a bluetooth stack, the bluetooh PS4 controllers are awesome!

Standing in line for dinner because my wife is a nut and walked past loads of places with almost no one in them to wait for hours to get into Ai Tre Scalini.

Really not a bad idea if this rating is true.
