Help pls: Raspberry pi 3 b as Multimedia station + emulator, + steam eventually

[sePL80]

Helle steamers.
I just bought a Raspberry pi 3 and am waiting for it´s arrival.
My plans are to use it as a video player, multi-emulator and eventually as a steam machine for low req. games.
+ I´d like to have it access to my PC HD through my router.
+If all the things above could be managed by using my Logitech Wireless F710 gamepad, I´d be one happy guy.

However, I have never used linux before, or any other systems apart from Windows.
Keep in mind, that I really want to be able to use it for at least video playback and console/computer emulation.

If anybody could give me some advice on this I would be very thankful.
Have a nice week,
sePL

Better ask in this forum. You would most probably get faster help there.

Even better in the Linux forum... http://steamcommunity.com/app/221410/discussions/

And here we are now in the Help & Tips forum...

you cannot install Steam on it, that is not possible.

you can only stream to it via lime/moonlight. and then all games that can run on the host PC are playable.

Thanks for moving the thread and for the answer about running steam.
I´ll try to stream it and will look if it runs better than with steam link.
(my PC is pretty low spec and it does not run well with steam link)
