Been wanting to get into retro gaming( both console and PC) and emulating some games that can't be found anymore, but the more I read the more confused I get.
Can anyone point me in a good direction to get started?

What platforms were these on? I might be able to suggest a program and a good place for ROMs and suchlike.

Might get a raspberry pi retro pie. Seen a lot of good things about it.
Anyone use it?

I'll ask my buddy. He builds custom arcade boxes with 300+ games. He should have some insights.

He said as long as you can follow directions it should only take you 10 minutes or so. He gave me a link to the website that he used to set his up: Retropie.org.uk
