RetroOS

RetroOS (formerly called RetroConsoleOS) is an operating system developed by GPower for RetroConsole.

History
As GPower was developing RetroConsole they needed an operating system. They decided to develop a simple OS so it will be easy to navigate. The OS was first shown at E3 2010. The OS was being critisized for being misleading with the "Retro" name, eventually GPower promised games from different old platforms would be ported over. In September 2010 they brought licenses for numerous platforms to be emulated on the Operating System.

Layout
As GPower wanted to keep it simple they opted for the main screen to mostly present games on the DVD or installed on the console and two bars, one saying the OS name and version and other one witch allows you to access non-game apps like RetroShop.
