 There's more but that's the gist. In terms of power required to run, consider handhelds to be a generation and a half behind consoles. The Sega Saturn is a special exception, consider it a 6th gen console in terms of power required. There's more but that's the gist.

 +
 +The Raspberry Pi 5 is supported as a “beta” version, available from the batocera.org website. 
 +
 +When will the final version be available? When it's ready.
 +
 +How can you help? For the Raspberry Pi 5, like any other hardware architecture, supporting it means that we need someone who has time and motivation for it.
 +  * if you have access to a Raspberry Pi 5 and are willing to test, please do so and report your results on the Batocera [[https://discord.gg/ndyUKA5|Discord server]]. 
 +  * If you have access to a Raspberry 5 sample and you know how to develop, please feel free to [[https://wiki.batocera.org/compile_batocera.linux|contribute]] and don't hesitate to reach out to the #developers channel on the Batocera [[https://discord.gg/ndyUKA5|Discord server]].
 +  * If you are a device vendor, you can ship several sample units and would like Batocera to be supported on it, please reach out to our [[https://batocera.org/contact|contact page]].
 +
 +This applies to Raspberry Pi 5, but can also apply to any other type of hardware that is somewhat popular and not listed on the Batocera [[https://batocera.org/download|download page]]. As well, a friendly reminder that you can [[:license#how_can_i_help|help Batocera in other ways too]].

 +==== Odroid H4 ====
 +
 +{{ :odroid-h4a.jpg?direct&330|A SBCthe size of an alarm clock with modern computer outputs like full-sized HDMI, DisplayPort, headphone and USB A ports.}}
 +
 +High-priced $99 board. The [[https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-h4/|Odroid H4]] is an x86_64 machine, powered by an Intel N97 (the Intel Core i3 N305 on the $220 Ultra model). The Intel n100/200/97 was considered an extraordinary leap in graphical performance compared to prior low-power SoCs. The "+" model offers SATA ports, and the "Ultra" model has the SATA ports and the more powerful i3 CPU.
 +
 +=== BIOS settings ===
 +
 +The default BIOS settings are conservative in its power usage. Performance can be slightly increased by increasing the power draw allowed or by disabling the power limits period (active cooling is recommended if doing this). The BIOS can be entered by pressing ''[Del]'' during boot-up, and the power settings in the **Advanced** tab access by pressing right.
 +
 +=== Required accessories ===
 +
 +  * SATA, M.2, eMMC or USB stick
 +  * Keyboard (if needing to adjust BIOS settings)
 +
 +=== Performance ===
 +
 +Can do up to Wii U, PS3 and Xbox. [[:choose_a_desktop_computer#batocera_v39|More detailed benchmark.]] ETAPrime made a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAr5IEqdrJQ|demonstration video]] showcasing its nifty cube case.
 +
 +==== Odroid H3+ ====
 +
 +High-priced $165 USD board. The [[https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-h3-plus/|Odroid H3+]] is technically an ordinary x86 machine, powered by an Intel Jasper Lake N6005 CPU and a Intel UHD Graphics 32 EUs Turbo iGPU.
 +
 +=== Required Accessories ===
 +
 +  * SATA or M.2 drive (unless flashing directly to eMMC)
 +
 +=== Performance ===
 +
 +It can run Wii U and PS2 games just fine (on Windows at least, need confirmation for the same/better performance on Linux) according to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSbaRCdkgeQ|Odroid's own demonstration video]].

 +{{ :hardware:orangepi5.png?400|}}
 +
 +A board starting at around 65$ USD powered by the RK3588S with variations with 4GB/8GB/16GB/or 32GB of RAM. Some variants can also include WiFi/Bluetooth, as well as a M.2 PCIe 2.0 port. It can be compared as a more powerful alternative to the Raspberry Pi 5
 +
 +=== Limitations ===
 +
 + * The built included bluetooth on the Orange Pi 5B does not work. WiFi seems to work fine.
 +
 +=== Required Accessories ===
 +
 +  * Micro SD card, NVME SSD, or FIXME [EMMC module needs testing]
 +  * 5V 4A USB-C Power Supply
 +  * HDMI or USB C display cable
 +
 +=== Performance ===
 +
 +Can run most of ARM-compatible emulators up to 6th gen. Slowdown can occur on higher end GCN and Wii games, but most are playable.

 +The Radxa Dragon Q6A is a single board computer with RPi-compatible form factor with Qualcomm® QCS6490 processor, designed specifically for industrial IoT, edge AI, and smart devices.
 +
 +<WRAP center round tip>
 +Support for Radxa Dragon Q6A has been merged and will be probably available in next releases.
 +  * If you have access to a Radxa Dragon Q6A and are willing to test, please do so and report your results on the Batocera [[https://discord.gg/ndyUKA5|Discord server]].

 +
 +=== Installation ===
 +
 +Make sure you are running the [[https://docs.radxa.com/en/dragon/q6a/download|latest UEFI Firmware]] prior to flashing.
 +
 +Flash the output image directly to the Micro-SD card.
 +
 +The SBC also features an **eMMC/UFS** slot (needs 4K LBA partitioning) and a **NVMe** slot. Booting on these mediums has not been tested, but they can be used as storage.
 +
 +=== Required Accessories ===
 +
 +  * Micro-SD card
 +  * Power supply (USB-C)
 +
 +=== Performance ===
 +
 +The Adreno 643 GPU can run smootly PSP and PS1 games, it can also run some Wii games. For intensive loads it may be required some active cooling.
