From the FAQ [External Link]:

"04. Will the specs allow to run WWE 2k15, GTA V and PES 2016? And will it be possible to run Windows, since those games aren't available for SteamOS?

If you install Windows on your SMACH Z, the specs should be enough to play them. Another option is playing them via “In-Home Streaming”. Or even nicer, if we are enough smachers we can pressure to get proper SteamOS version of those games. "

Well, (wo)men can dream. :o)

Only supporting one distribution officially is fine for me, and the only logical choice for the game bundled with Steam Controllers (and thus Steam Machines I guess) is SteamOS. It will work on other Linuxes as well. I bet.
