            <blockquote>
              <p>Lakka is a Linux distribution aimed at turning small computer devices into <b>retrogaming consoles</b>. It is a minimal operating system using <a target="_blank" href="http://www.retroarch.com/">RetroArch</a> as a front-end - it contains nothing more, nothing less than what's required for RetroArch and its <b>100+ supported consoles and standalone games</b>.</p>
              <p>And guess what - it runs on the Switch too, using the magic of <a href="https://github.com/fail0verflow/shofel2" target="_blank">ShofEL2</a> ! Prepare your SD card, boot the system and you're ready to go !</p>
