First Build Bartop cabinet

[scenariol113]

Hi

I am going to start making my first build in the near future and was wondering if I can get some input on what computer to run it.  I like the Raspberry Pi 4 but I do not know much about it except that it is very tiny and a lot of people use it.

I just dont know how good it works and I want to have the following emulators running in my Launchbox-BigBox set up and that is what I want to run in the cabinet.

MAME

SuperModel

Daphne

 

I am not really worried about MAME but not sure if the Rasperry Pi will run Daphne and Supermodel and still get the proper FPS to enjoy playing the games. 

Does the Pi have enough RAM and CPU to do it.  I am assuming it does but I just dont know.  My PC runs it all no prob but I also have a gaming RIG so it is not a good comparison.

 

Anyway, any thoughts or advice would be appreciated

1st things 1st LaunchBox doesn't run on the pi at all.

Thanks, I didnt realize that!

Any suggestions on what setup to run for launchbox (computer-wise).  I can run a mobo with no case and place whatever components I need inside, I guess.   I been spending a lot of time on the front-end setup but am just starting to think about the hardware now.
