Is there a Steam-like "Big Screen" UI for Dolphin? - Narann - 05-22-2019

Hello everyone,

I plan to build a "console" PC based on Dolphin for my sofa room. Angel

I wanted it to be "controller-only" like Steam's Big Screen. Swich ON, select a game, and play.

Can I do a such thing with Dolphin? Can anyone point me to what I'm supposed to look for?

A big thanks in advance! Big Grin

Dolphin does not support that natively. Do a search on the web for emulation front-end's and there is probably there something that will do what you want. I personally use Steam itself and launch RPCS3, Cemu and Dolphin games from there by employing shortcuts. For the rest of the old systems, I use have one shortcut to launch Retroarch.

Steam ROM manager works well to make steam handle this. But no. Dolphin does not

Thanks a lot for your answers guys. I guess I will stick with a good old mouse/keyboard for now. Angel
