Turn Any PC into a Retro Gaming Console with Batocera | EASY Guide

Hello everyone, in this video we are going to be making a portable gaming drive that has the Batocera operating system installed directly to it. That means you can just plug it into any of your computers whether it's running Windows, Linux or an Intel Mac. Apple Silicon isn't currently supported but Apple Silicon is really fast anyway so you can refer to my previous gaming drive video and full in-depth Mac gaming guide video in order to run things from there! ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💬 Chat with me on Discord:   / discord   ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ❤️ Support me on Patreon:   / ryanretro   ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🛒 All my affiliate links: https://www.ryanretro.com/store ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🤝 This video is sponsored by TerraMaster!
