1.0<\/strong> (Retropie 4.5.1)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Generally works well for consoles and arcade emulation. Pi4 is not supported in this release. Initial resolution set at 320×240, with fixed\/no scaling, so games won’t fill the screen with resolutions lower than 320×240, and larger resolutions will scale and generate scaling artifacts. This works well enough for the time being. Future versions will attempt to address this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 1.1<\/strong> (Retropie 4.7.1)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Unlike 4.5.1, this release scales the display when in vertical mode generating artifacts. Do not use this version for vertical games. The Raspberry Pi 4 has graphics tearing and jitter issues with moving images with this version. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 1.2<\/strong> (Retropie 4.8)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Some UI improvements over 4.7. Most people will not see any difference over earlier versions. Same graphics tearing and jitter as in 4.7 on a Pi4 however only this version works with the newest 2022 Raspberry Pi 4s. Most Pi3 and earlier users should still continue to stick with Retropie 4.5. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In general, this is what can be expected for each platform:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Atari 2600 \/ 7800:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n No issues with emulation quality or speed with Pi1\/Zero and others, with the default emulator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n NES \/ Famicom:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n No issues with Pi1\/Zero and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n PCEngine \/ Turbografx-16:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n No issues with Pi1\/Zero and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Game Gear:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n No issues with Pi1\/Zero and others other than a super small screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Genesis \/ Mega Drive:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Works well with lr-picodrive only on Pi1\/2\/Zero. Do not use other emulators on Pi1\/2\/Zero which are slow, making games unplayable. No issues with Pi3+. Change the default emulator to lr-picodrive if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Super Nintendo \/ Super Famicom:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Works with most games with occasional stutter on Pi1\/Zero, much better with Pi2. With Pi3 the emulation is pretty much flawless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nintendo 64:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Decent speed with Pi3+ but can\u2019t be controlled properly without an analog joystick which PJ doesn’t have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n MAME:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Many early 80s games ok to play on Pi1, even Capcom classic (pre CPS1) games run well with a Pi1. Pi2 works much better with late 80s and early 90s games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Use only lr-mame2003. lr-mame2000 ignores scaling options and mame4all does not use the retroarch joystick \/ button configuration. Most other versions are either too slow to use on a Raspberry Pi, or experimental in support<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Release Notes 1.0 (Retropie 4.5.1) Generally works well for consoles and arcade emulation.
