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.

I'm going to borrow a friend's laptop so I can get RetroArch up and running because I have quite a few GameCube games I've been dying to play again lol. The Xbox series S really is the best bang for you buck in gaming right now. Full access to the BEST Xbox games ever made from the last 20 years (when I signed into my Xbox live account I immediately had access to all the digital XB360 & XBOX ONE i'd purchased over the years) I will definitely be using this guide to install RetroArch ASAP 👍

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.

Great video, in the process of setting it up now. I guess I'm finally going full circle as I originally bought into the xbox ecosystem about 16 years ago by picking up a wired X360 controller for emulating mariokart 64 on PC as it provided a better resolution, image overall than the original hardware and drift boosting was really taking it's toll on my at the time irreplaceable genuine N64 controllers. Now I'll be able to emulate mario kart wii and double dash on my xbox series x without having to HDMI mod a Wii, and lay waste to my difficult if at all possible to replace GCN controllers. I mean sure, I would always prefer to use original, or at the very least, Nintendo hardware, but until Nintendo release a 4K switch, or at the very least allow me to buy switch games digitally without having a switch yet (so I can buy a few games, and then buy a Switch OLED on impulse) i won't be going down either route. How hard would it be for Nintendo to make a console with hardware NES, SNES, N64, and Wii support that uses Switch Pro, gamecube, or Wii pro controllers and HDMI output anyway? As they would definitely have a market for it

Best console for old Nintendo games is still the Wii U in my opinion. You can softmod it and play Gamecube, Wii and Wii U without emulation and 100% perfection. Any older games will run too of course with emulation. And it does have HDMI. And its very cheap now.

Ok, but you don't mention some of the most essencial, important things ever created/implemented in the history of emulation: Runahead, Frame Delay and all the latency reduction tools found on RA. 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.

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.

Hey guys as a supplement to this video I would like to add the instructions for setting up your usb as outlined in our discord. All app packages needs to be set to full control. Here are the steps: 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.

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.
