Lakka is a lightweight Linux distribution that transforms a small computer into a full blown retrogaming console. Built on top of the famous RetroArch emulator, Lakka is able to emulate a large range of hardware and has some useful features such as Braid-like rewinding, joypad hotplug and video streaming. ==User guide== Please refer to the [https://lakka.tv/doc/Nintendo-Switch/ official website] on how to setup Lakka. ===Useful links=== *[https://www.lakka.tv/doc/Hardware-support/ Supported hardware.] *[https://lakka.tv/doc/BIOSes/ BIOS requirements table.] *[https://forums.libretro.com/c/libretro/lakka-tv-general Official forum.] *[https://www.reddit.com/r/Lakka/ Unofficial subreddit.] ==Screenshots== https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/l4tlakkanx2.gif ==Media== '''Lakka - How to Install: Switch''' ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WimHxb_s1Ic LibRetro]) <br> <youtube>WimHxb_s1Ic</youtube> '''Lakka on Nintendo Switch Emulation Tests | N64, Gamecube, PS1 (25 Games)''' ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKJGNIMnzGU LOE TECH]) <br> <youtube>QKJGNIMnzGU</youtube> ==Changelog== '''v5.0''' * Based on LibreELEC 11.0 build system. * RetroArch updated to [https://www.libretro.com/index.php/retroarch-1-17-0-release/ 1.17.0]. * Cores updated to their most recent versions. * New cores added: ** <code>dirksimple</code>: Dragon’s Lair player. ** <code>dosbox-core</code>: DOSBox. ** <code>ep128emu</code>: Enterprise 64/128, Videoton TVC, Amstrad CPC and ZX Spectrum. ** <code>geolith</code>: Neo Geo AES and MVS Cartridge Systems. ** <code>jaxe</code>: XO-CHIP/S-CHIP/CHIP-8. ** <code>numero</code>: TI-83. ** <code>thepowdertoy</code>: The Powder Toy. ** <code>vice_xpet</code>: Commodore PET. ** <code>vircon32</code>: Virtual Game Console inspired by 16/32-bit systems. ** <code>vitaquake2</code>: Quake II. * Mesa updated to [https://docs.mesa3d.org/relnotes/24.0.4.html 24.0.4]. * Updated Linux kernel: ** mainline: 6.1.84 ** raspberry: 6.1.77 ** amlogic: 6.1.38 * Added images for following devices: ** Raspberry Pi 5. ** Raspberry Pi Zero 2 in Retroflag GPI Case 2W. ** Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 in Retroflag GPI Case 2. ** Generic PC: *** Support for nVidia GPUs (using proprietary nVidia driver, separate image). ** Allwinner SOC: *** OrangePi Zero2. *** OrangePi 3 LTS. ** Amlogic SOC: *** BananaPi CM4. *** BananaPi M2 Pro. *** BananaPi M2S. *** BananaPi M5. *** Radxa Zero. *** Radxa Zero2. *** WeTek Core. *** WeTek Hub. *** WeTek Play 2. ** Rockchip SOC: *** Firefly ROC-PC Plus. *** OrangePi 4 LTS. *** Radxa Rock Pi 4 Plus. *** Radxa Rock Pi 4 C Plus. * [https://forums.libretro.com/t/retrorama-for-xmb/43690 Retrorama] - theme and dynamic wallpapers for XMB.
