Which arcade core do you recommend?

Just setting up my Recalbox, and was wondering how I should go about configuring my arcade emulators, and which core people tend to use? Or is it better to find romsets that work with each core? Finding it a little overwhelming to begin with, ^^;;

I suggest you have a look at the wiki  page on github : https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Add-arcade-games-(EN) For me the cores to use are mame and fba_libretro and you'll neeed them both if you want to have the most arcade games availables And yes you will need the dedicated romset for each version, if you don't want to spend endless time trying to make your roms launch...

Thanks, I've managed to get a romset for Mame, but can't find one anywhere for FBA Libretro, so might just have to stick with Mame for now,
