Emulationstation isn ' t under development any longer , I don ' t think . Last time I tried to set it up on a media PC , I couldn ' t find a version newer than early 2016 , and that was a fork of the original , which stopped mid 2015 . Nobody seems to have picked it up past that . Also , it ' s far harder to set up than Launchbox because you have to add every platform and emulator separately via the text config file . Not a lot of people can handle that , however simple it might be . It ' s beautiful and it used to be my launcher of choice , but it was also far more difficult to get running and doesn ' t have nearly as much flexibility as Launchbox . I remember having issues with the scraper as well . If a scraper was down , it ' d take hours to comb through your collection and you ' d end with no imagesinfo . Plus , it doesn ' t have an interface specific for kbm computers . Launchbox does . I found myself in your category a year or so ago before I was given the chance to try out Launchbox Premium , but it really did convert me . Of course , if you ' re not playing Roms on an , at least , weekly basis , it probably won ' t be worth your time . But as someone who fires up an emulator at least a few times a week on multiple computers , it ' s been a godsend .
