Occasionally Internet surprises us unintentionally. A French user with the nick Dr Floyd has created a SD customized for a single emulator images. You wont have to wait long, usually begin in seconds...


They are images that can download through Dropbox. Once decompressed takes about 4GB.

It's Arch Linux prepared specifically for a Pi based console called OctopusPi which was promoted by Kickstarter. Comes with Kernel 3.10.38-1. we can access through SSH (root@root) but games can be copied from the /boot/games directory which has FAT32 (1.5GB free).

Work with the Raspberry Pi Model A and B (problems with detecting joystick with model B+).

Emulators available are:

  • Game Boy Color

  • Atari 400/800/800XL/1200XL

  • MSX/MSX2

Enjoy!
