New R4P user here, excited but also a bit overwhelmed: general question about the setup

Hi guys! I recently bought a Retroid 4 Pro and I’m excited about start using it and playing games. However, the whole setup process feels a bit daunting to me and I’m kinda overwhelmed.

Specially with some tutorials that I’m watching telling me to install and configure every single emulator as well as Daijisho BEFORE start playing any games.

In your experience, is it really that strict? Can’t I just configure a couple of emulators and Daijisho just to start playing something and keep updating and setting up new emulators along the way?

Thanks for your advice!
