## Supported game systems ## Supported game systems
**Note:** The following list is what the default es_systems.cfg files and the rbsimple-DE theme supports. This theme set is very comprehensive, so if you're using another theme, it may be that some or many of these systems are not supported. EmulationStation will still work but the game system will not be themed which looks very ugly. **Note:** The following list is what the default es_systems.cfg files and the rbsimple-DE theme supports. This theme set is very comprehensive, so if you're using another theme, it may be that some or many of these systems are not supported. ES-DE will still work but the game system will not be themed which looks very ugly.
Note as well that the list and corresponding es_systems.cfg templates may not match what's actually available for all supported operating systems. For example, in some instances you may need to compile the RetroArch cores from source code as they may not come pre-built for your OS, and in some instances they may not work at all. Linux is the reference as most RetroArch cores and other emulators are supported on this class of operating systems. But entries are still retained in all es_systems.cfg templates as more emulators may be supported in the future. The exception is entries that are definitely not going to be available (such as Lutris on non-Unix platforms), and in those instances a placeholder is used in order to maintain the file structure across the template files. Finally, if the preferred emulator or core is not available for a certain OS but there is a feasible alternative, then this is used instead. Such an example is for Nintendo 64, where ParaLLEl N64 is defined on Windows and Mupen64Plus-Next is defined on Unix and macOS.
The column **Game system name** corresponds to the directory where you should put your game files, e.g. `~/ROMs/c64` or `~/ROMs/megadrive`. The column **Game system name** corresponds to the directory where you should put your game files, e.g. `~/ROMs/c64` or `~/ROMs/megadrive`.

The **Default emulator** column shows the emulator configured in es_systems.cfg, and for emulators that support multiple cores, the configured core is shown inside brackets.

For additional details regarding which game file extensions are supported per system, refer to the es_systems.cfg templates [es_systems.cfg_unix](resources/templates/es_systems.cfg_unix), [es_systems.cfg_macos](resources/templates/es_systems.cfg_macos) and [es_systems.cfg_windows](resources/templates/es_systems.cfg_windows). Normally the extensions setup in these files should cover everything that the emulators support though.
