NES Classic Emulation on Raspberry Pi

Introduction

The NES library includes some of the greatest games ever made. With RetroPie, you can play them all on modern hardware.

Installing RetroPie

Download the RetroPie image and flash it to an SD card. First boot will expand the filesystem automatically.

Configuring Controllers

USB adapters let you use original NES controllers. Configure them through the EmulationStation setup wizard.

CRT Shaders

Shaders add scanlines and phosphor glow for that authentic CRT look on modern displays.

Optimal Settings

We'll configure input lag reduction and audio settings for the best possible gameplay experience.

Next Steps

Expand to other systems like SNES, Genesis, or even N64 and PlayStation.
