Has anyone run any Adventure Games on Raspberry Pi 3 using the RetroPie software or Raspbian System (similar to Linux).

I have a first generation Raspberry and it runs all sorts of emulators just fine and without problems. It struggles with more recent systems with specialized hardware, like Amiga – but the increased processing power of later Raspberries should balance this out.

Forgive me for asking, but what would the advantage of running something like "RetroPie" as opposed to a general purpose operating system be?
