Descriptions:
LaunchBox is a game interface originally built for DOS. However, now LaunchBox supports a large number of emulators and PC games for an all-in-one multimedia solution. While RetroPie, Batocera, Lakka, and Recalbox have built-in emulators, LaunchBox does not. As such, you will need to add your own. The difference between LaunchBox and Retroarch is that Retroarch provides emulators while LaunchBox offers a nice user interface. Therefore, LaunchBox is used in conjunction with Retroarch.
Characteristics:
