PortMaster ❤️ RetroDECK
We are proud to announce that the parts of the RetroDECK Team, Batocera Team and PortMaster Team is going bring PortMaster to x86_64 systems.

It already works in our early POC!

Not all ports have x86_64 versions but more will be added over time and a lot of work left to do.
What is PortMaster?
It is a Linux Port Manager to easy download, manage, create and play various Linux game ports. In many of the ports you will need to own game and take files from the original game for the ports to work.
