In particular Xemu or Cxbx would be amazing to have to get almost every Xbox game playable instead of just the much more limited Official Backwards Compatible titles, and have more games working than the original Xbox emulator on the 360.

Xbox is truly a great bit of kit. I've got moonlight running (also through gamer13) which means I can run my virtul pc and pc only title ls like Postal from my xbox... Even better connecting while I'm away via my android phone and a hotel screen was perfect. Beat that Ps5 ;)

    Having played through all of Xenogears (60+ hours, Duckstation) on a Series X via retail retroarch, I can confirm Retroarch retail is totally worth more than just a novelty install or benchmark, since being able to play timeless classics on a modern system too often has its caveats otherwise. Even with a modern game in the same "series" coming out soon, the one modern console you can play the first game on is the one the most removed from its other games.

      You can open the menu in game and it will list core options for the running core, usually performance settings for cores are in there. Should be able to adjust resolution and ratio, as well as upscaling and other things. Be sure to save them after you find a good setup and they will auto load the next time you run that game/core.

    Is there any notable difference in performance between the Series S and Series X with Retroarch? And is there a way to emulate the Sega Model 3 arcade games, or Sega Arcade Boards from later years (Especially the ones that never made it to consoles like Scud Race, Virtua Cop 3, Sega Race TV and Daytona USA 2)

    I was thinking about getting a PS5, but nothing is backwards compatible except PS4. I think having retroarch on the Xbox Series S might make me want this console. I mean I can play new and old games in one spot. I know you can do this on PC, but I like the interface of consoles over going in folders to find stuff.

      First you need to follow these instructions because the permissions instructions in this video are incomplete:
      To setup your USB for RetroArch on Xbox you must first meet the following criteria:
      - Your USB cannot be formatted for Xbox games
      - You **must** have access to a Windows PC or Virtual Machine
      ==================================================
      USB Setup Guide
      1) Connect your USB drive to your PC, note that all data on the USB will be completely erased
      2) Go to File Explorer and right click on your USB drive, click format and format your drive as NTFS, leave everything as default
      3) When done, close the format box and right click your USB drive again in File Explorer and click Properties, after that, follow these steps:
      Security Tab > Advanced > Add > Select Principal > Advanced > Find Now > All App Packages > Ok > Tick the Full Control box > Ok > Enable Inheritance.
      Close all open windows, you're now ready to go and can use your USB for Xbox RetroArch.
      Ps2:
      Now make a folder on your usb called system, then make a pcsx2 folder inside of it. Then inside of the pcsx2 folder make a bios folder and put a ps2 bios in it. Lastly, in Retroarch’s directory settings, change system/bios to the system folder on your usb.

      No, as I stated above, you make a system folder first, then put the pcsx2 folder inside of it. Then set system/bios to the system folder you made. Any other bios you need (not all cores/consoles require them) will be put into the system folder as well.

    Actually if the usb stick or disk is formatted from within the xbox as for "media usage" you can then connect it to the pc and load it with roms without having to change the permission principles. Also cause the xbox has gigabit Ethernet, you can easily transfer roms via network using durango ftp server on the xbox and any ftp client on the pc. The usb drive is always drive letter D: and It was a lifesaver after the firmware update from Microsoft this summer (2022) that blacklisted ruined and vanished all emulation apps on my previous installation, the gamr13 team did the trick to have them back in retail mode

    I'd like to know how these tools perform on the XBSS/X compared to a PC, especially because they are heavily CPU dependant, but take advantage of GPU power when you consider GC, Wii, Dreamcast and PS2.
