UPDATE 2: For anyone wondering where to find RetroArch for retail there's a discord for it where the apps get posted regularly. Not gonna post it here because the apps already get taken down frequently but if anyone is looking for the discord, feel free to pm me and I'll be happy to invite you :).

UPDATE: decided to just dive right in and found out for myself. About 16gb available on the internal hard drive and USB is supported on the One for anyone wondering.

Hey all, I have a question about RetroArch in retail mode. I felt like this didn't belong in the official RetroArch thread bc that seems to be focused on dev mode only but if a mod/admin wants to move this I understand.

From what I've read, if I understand correctly, you can ftp your roms to the Xbox One but there's only about 30gb available for this purpose. Correct me if I'm wrong here. I've also read that USB devices are supported in retail mode but I'm not sure if that applies to Xbox One or just the Series S/X. USB would be ideal for me if possible as I have about 40gb worth of ROMs. Any insight would be greatly appreciated before I dive right in and set up RetroArch. Thanks!

    I love it for most things most stores you just shows the receipt online and they scan it

    Makes it easy for incompetent restaurant staff that don't know how to hear an order
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Mostly for big purchases, I want it in my hands before I pay. Like a tv, I trust picking it up myself, before I'd trust it being sent thru mail/delivery. (Broken screen, etc) But yea if I can order online, then pickup at store is ok, but not all places offer that.

    Thing is, if you break it driving back to your house, it's your fault. But if the delivery driver damages it, it's not your fault.

    Most people that haul big tvs have empty trucks or know enough not to set it face down
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Then I gotta send it back and wait another week or two. I have a pickup truck, with a extended cab, so no prob for me.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Most manufacturers pack it well enough where they aren't that dumb to let it happen
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    They building a new Microcenter store near by me, is kinda scary. That's my favorite place, I'm like a kid in a candy store there.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

    Kinda cool, I can buy a second Xbox for guests, and download all my purchased digital games to it, and play on both xboxs same time. Didn't know they allowed that. 2 xboxs per Xbox account.

    Is crazy to think, you used to be able to build a decent PC for $300-400. Those days are way gone.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    $600 gets you a decent one

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Uremums expensive
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Uremums cheap, she even takes coupons still. She put a dollar on her head, and said "all you can eat, under a dollar."
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gotta save a dollar where you can get a dollar
