This is the set of cores for the RetroArch (games/retroarch). There are currently 54 cores available through this port.

We took the different approach compared to Linux, and packaged all cores into one port. It is much easier to both maintain and install the cores this way. Adding another core is usually equivalent to adding one more line into the Makefile.

Some free simple Sega32x games are available here: http://www.freeroms.com/sega_genesis_32x.htm Sega32x games can be played with PicoDrive core:
> $ retroarch -L /usr/local/libexec/libretro/picodrive_libretro.so <SomeGame>.32x

Comment 4 Kurt Jaeger freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-11-14 20:20:55 UTC 
Builds fine in poudriere on 11amd64, 10.2a+i, fails on 9.3a.
Comment 5 Yuri Victorovich freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-11-14 20:28:59 UTC 
It is not amazing to me that it fails on 9.X. The project is a collection of very different c/c++ project with a lot of specific patches, so it is expected to fail with different compiler. Lack of 9.X build is okay to accept IMO.
