So I'm looking for a stick for my brother in law. He has some old firesticks, older models. But if that won't work, I'm looking for a stick that can run retroarch, up to PS2, and uses bluetooth to allow the PS5 controller to connect.

That's what I suggested.

He then sent me THIS LINK and said he was looking at this.

He's dead set on a stick format. I look at those controllers, and assume they play like shit. The crazy thing is, unlike me, he actually knows how to use and navigate linux.

I have a raspberry pi 4, that I want to like, but I can't figure linux out to turn the damn fan on. So mine sits, mostly unused. Whereas he would know what he's doing. He's a software developer by trade.

But he wants a stick. So I'm hoping someone knows what to do.

Let him get a stick then and laugh when his PS2 games run at 2fps. Simply isn't possible yet in stick format. Rpi4 won't even do PS2 in playable framerates
