I backed the Pine64 kickstarter, but after I received the 2GB Pine board, I put it in a drawer because I didn't have the time at that moment that was required to make it do something useful. Now we're a few months further into development and I see that considerable progress has been made, so it might be time to blow the dust from my board and start using it.
Considering emulation, I see a number of possible solutions.
a) Install Android on the board and then install emulators from the Play Store. There are countless. Is there any Android version that is best? I've seen the "regular" Android 5.x, but also 6.x beta and even 7.x beta.
b) Install RemixOS, which seems to be a good alternative to Android, offering the same possibilities. Or am I mistaken here?
c) Install a Linux distribution and then port RetroPie, RetroArch, EmulationStation or something similar to it. This seems the most flexible and compatible solution, except it looks like a whole lot of pioneering needs to be done.
So can someone advise me which is the best choice to start with? I'm not afraid of experimenting and finding out things by myself, but if it's clear from the beginning that a certain approach will never lead to something satisfying, I'd rather skip that.
I votes for try out Ayufan Android 6.x build.
