Hi guys, I have been using a Raspberry Pi with Retropie for my emulation for ages. It's used for games up to PS1 and it's fine, but I wanted to upgrade my emulation to play games up to PS3/360. For that I think I need to use a PC right? What's the recommended spec for that use case?

It's gonna be used specifically for emulation hooked up on a TV on my basement and with Retrobat or some system like that

I appreciate your inputs.

I'm looking into emulation for 360, myself, because I know that actually running my 360 is a timer counting down to the red ring of death.

Jasper motherboard and later 360s don't get RRODs (at least that most common one), I'd even say they're more reliable than fat PS3s

Basically any 360 but the oldest two fat models will serve you a very long time, I'm rocking a Trinity with RGH installed

Oh cool. I'll do some research. Maybe I can pull mine out of storage and enjoy it, then. Thanks!
