ScottP Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 I've seen some videos of LB, and wondered if there's a frontend for it so it can be used in an arcade cabinet, instead of picking games with a mouse and keyboard? Currently using retropie (on a Pi) but want to use a PC in the cab. I'm trying to decide between this and Hyperspin, which can be used in an arcade cab. Quote

The paid license for LB comes with BigBox which is the arcade cabinet frontend version. Quote

LB is where you will import your games, edit your metadata, media and set your emulators. You can use LB in a cabinet. BigBox is just more graphically designed for it and you can move around it easier with a controller or arcade control panel set-up. Quote
