Once you install the script on your Raspberry Pi, the controls will work just like a keyboard, so you can easily use it with any emulator or media player.<\/p>\n<p>Adafruit has found that Joy Bonnet performs best with <a href=\"https:\/\/retropie.org.uk\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">RetroPie<\/a>\/<a href=\"https:\/\/www.emulationstation.org\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">EmulationStation<\/a>. It can emulate NES and MAME games on a Raspberry Pi Zero, and other emulators that don\u2019t require speeds above 1GHz also work well. <strong>Keep in mind that an N64 emulator will not run, as it requires significantly more power.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An additional advantage is that <strong>Joy Bonnet comes fully assembled, with no soldering required.<\/strong> You may need to solder headers onto your Raspberry Pi Zero, but once that\u2019s done, you\u2019re ready to go.
