Add more emulators and out-the-box settings #14

First of all, thank you for he script. It save me precious time. After the changes I made in #13 , the installation in fine but there are things that don't work out-the-box.

PSX emulator: 1) Bios is missing, It's ok 2) First time I have to set up CPU overclock and other things in the ePSXe gui. => We could edit ePSXe config in the script 3) I have to set up the controller in the ePSXe gui. => I don't know if it's possible to use the retroarch config (or emulestation config)

Retroarch controller: 1) After configuring controller in Emulestation, I was expecting the controller to be working in all games. I had to open retroarch.exe and configure the controller again => I don't know if it's possible to reuse Emulestation configuration. I think RetroPie does that.

Other emulators: 1) I installed libretro MAME and PCSX2 (Play2). => I can update the installation script if anyone is interested. The thing is, if we add more emulators some of them should be optional.

Is anyone interested in improving the script?

Hey ngosang,

Regarding the bios, we simply can't automate that, it's an illegal file.

In regards to ePSXe setup, I've personally never set it up. But if you have a ".config" or something else that you've pre-configured we can do something similar like how I inject the config file into emulation station to get menu elements to appear "switched on" without configuring them.

Regarding the new emulator, add it in! The more that's automated for a wider audience the easier things will be moving for others to pick things up and go!
