Trying to find a ready to go image for a Raspberry Pi 5, either RetroPie or Batocera (or others I'm not aware of) for retro gaming. I know of Arcade Punks, but is there any other resource? Tried downloading a 128GB image from them and its taking forever due to no seeders. I did check megathread but wasn't able to find anything so far.

Good point. I think you're right. I suppose that way I can cut out some of the junk roms I'll never play. Good call.

It's definitely worth it to curate your library. It makes it a lot better when you actually get to playing

I was mostly worried about coming across some junk roms that won't play, etc. But that's probably not so common.

@Father_Redbeard @owen you can easily find pretty complete rom packs and then check it all with DAT files (a database of checksums)

Where do you like to find them? I looked at the Megathread, but couldn't really find a retro-centric source.

@Father_Redbeard archive.org for the roms, and no-intro for the dat files
