Update! StarCraft has been ported to ARM:

So, I've unaccepted the best answer, and the question stands as is.


I often meet with friends and if not more than one computer is available, we take take turns playing games. Instead, would we be able to use a Raspberry Pi with an additional monitor/keyboard/mouse to play against each other, or play on Battle.net together? If so, how would I configure this?

Minimum System Requirements from (http://gamesystemrequirements.com/):

  • CPU: Pentium 90 MHz or higher
  • RAM: 16 MB RAM
  • VGA: DirectX-Compatible SVGA Video Card (DirectX-compatible)
  • OS: Windows 95/98/NT
  • HDD: 80 MB
  • Sound: DirectX-compatible sound card for audio
  • Network: Multiplayer System Requirements:
  • 14.4Kbps Modem or Null Modem Cable
  • IPX network or Battle.net (requires low-latency connection with support for 32-bit applications)
  • Recommended peripherals: Microsoft-Compatible Keyboard, Mouse

Keep in mind that the game can be installed from a USB flash drive or downloaded.
