I've been looking to install some native Linux games as well, but it seems that even though retro-style 2d graphics are popular in modern games, those games still want 2Ghz and 2GB+ RAM (Terraria, Stardew Valley, etc.)
So - what Native Linux games have you found to run well on lite hardware? (1.2Ghz CPU, 1GB RAM, no dedicated GPU memory AFAIK)
Bonus points if they use a gamepad.

exactly that.
so you have mainly emulators, open source games and browser games.

Yes of course, I should have realized that!
Though, there are a few games out there that are basically packaged .jars, I wonder if I could get some of them to work...

People were doing it with Raspberry Pi 2 models, so the Pi 3 should run even better.
While blabbing about Steam-Link technology, I have been contemplating playing Windows games (on my old PC) and steam-linking to my main Linux PC, so I don't have to suffer coming out of Linux to do my gaming. Thinking to play Skyrim like that. Obviously I'd much prefer to play natively, and when a game is only out on Windows I avoid buying it unless I really really want it.
Note: I really, really want Witcher 3... but not cheap enough / not on Linux - so I'm still holding out.
