Could recalbox make ps2 emulator run on Raspberry pi 4?

Hi
I workshop like ti know if recalbox could make ps2 emulator run on a Raspberry pi 4 in the future or the hardware of this Raspberry is not enough powerfull to achieve it?

Unfortunately, even the Pi4 is nowhere near powerful enough

Hi,

you can see on the wiki Emulators Compatibility

@jor2404 hello,
as you guess it, the Pi4 is not powerfull enough to launch PS2 emulators. A PC is required.

Recalbox may not be able to run a PS2 emulator smoothly on a Raspberry Pi 4, as the hardware limitations still hold it back. While the Raspberry Pi 4 is a powerful device for emulating older consoles, the PS2 requires much more processing power, particularly for accurate emulation.

Even with the improvements in the Raspberry Pi 4, it struggles with the PS2's complex architecture. However, future software optimizations and updates might improve performance, but for now, running PS2 games at playable speeds on a Raspberry Pi 4 is not feasible.
