This seems like what I wanted on my first rpi over a decade ago.
Install, add ~15000 games from archive.org romsets, maybe a few bios files, done.
Shit just works. ~1970-2000 done
Retro Assembly is great

great looking software, but RomM handles WAYYYY more systems than this

+1. I’m a huge fan of RmM, they have been improving their solution constantly. Also, combine that with their Argosy launcher and you have a great combo of centralized repository and sync client.

RomM looks really cool. I’ve had difficulty with getting the Retroarch container to play roms with acceptable latency and without crashing. Is RomM easy to set up and does it handle the heavy lifting in such a way as to not tax resources? I’m on an i5 thinkstation with onboard graphics. My system does not like Wayland at all.

And it can tie in pretty darn nicely with Jellyfin
