I first tried some cheap heatsinks I had laying around with the overclock, but quickly found the system overheated and crashed. GeeekPi heatsink and fan allowed me to overclock a Raspberry Pi 4 to 2.1GHz I've written a tutorial on how overclock a Raspberry Pi 4 and shared my experience of keeping it cool. In order to play post 16bit era emulators such as the PlayStation 1, Nintendo N64 or Sega Dreamcast on Raspberry Pi, you will need to overclock yours. I'd not recommend going lower than this if you wanted to emulate a Dreamcast or N64.
My Raspberry Pi 4 is the 4GB RAM Model B, although you should be fine with the 2GB Model B model. I've written a tutorial on how to do this if you wanted to use SSD for RetroPie over a MicroSD. I would recommend running from an external SSD if you can. I've opted to install to a SanDisk Extreme A2 rated MicroSD card to ensure maximum performance. The Raspberry PiĪs mentioned in the title, I'm using a Raspberry Pi 4 with the latest release of RetroPie installed. The 8BitDo controller paired via bluetooth with absolutely no issues whatsoever, and after at least 10 hours of gameplay, my SN30 Pro is yet to need a charge. I went for a 8BitDo SN30 Pro Bluetooth gamepad You can pick these up for around £40/$35. This controller's build quality matches, if not exceeds that of OEM games console build quality, while oozing a retro feel while introducing triggers, share buttons and analogue sticks. I eventually settled on the excellent SN30 Pro Bluetooth controller from 8BitDo. RetroPie is a pre-configured distrobution built on top of Raspbian OS, using emulators to create a retro gaming machine.
Specifically, I wanted to be able to play Sega Genesis/Megadrive, Super Nintendo, N64, PlayStation 1 and Sega Dreamcast games on my Raspberry Pi. It was important for me that gameplay was authentic with an aim to play games on emulators right up to and including 6th generation. The ultimate goal is to create a RetroPie based gaming computer based on a Raspberry Pi. Now that RetroPie officially supports Raspberry Pi 4, I created the ultimate Raspberry Pi 4 based RetroPie gaming setup, capable of running Dreamcast, PS1 and N64 games flawlessly.
