Having just installed RetroPie - and having a lot of fun with it - I was surprised not finding the emulation of the BBC (just considering some really obscure systems it is able to emulate!)
I cast my vote for it being supported!!!

looks like the full installation process is detailed here http://haprpi.blogspot.co.uk/p/the-bbc-lives.html?m=1 - looks like it should be possible!

Agreed. Would love for there to be an easy default installation of a quality BBC Micro emulator for RetroPie. That would be fantastic for many reasons. The best emulator on Windows I've found is BeebEm: http://www.mkw.me.uk/beebem/ - and there's a UNIX/Linuz version here: http://beebem-unix.bbcmicro.com/

Jesus man, I wanna play Elite! I'd love to see a default BBC Micro emulator!

Periodically I google to see if this exists.... Does nobody care about the BBC Micro for emulation? I just assumed Retropie would have it! :-(

The instructions linked to by @dankcushions work well (http://haprpi.blogspot.co.uk/p/the-bbc-lives.html?m=1 ) it just needs a bit of polish
Haven't got sound working yet, but will try that over the holidays
