If the emulator suddenly kicks you out to the Homebrew Channel, look in the MAME folder (sd:/mame/) for a file called errors.txt. Even games for early boards like CPS-1 can fail to run due to RAM limitations. Just because a ROM is supported does not mean it will run.A list of all the ones that are can be found here: This is to keep the size of the emulator low enough to run effectively on the Wii. If you don't see the ROM in the list in the emulator, then support for that ROM isn't included. Lots of ROMs are supported, but not all of them.Then, push "Launch" and the gba game should launch properly.The controls are configurable in the emulator itself or by changing the settings in /mame/cfg/default.cfg file. In the configuration GUI, change the "emulator for rom" to "lr-mgba". Then, restart EmulationStation and start the game, but before it starts, push "A" to configure the game. gba file to "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/gba". gba file to a USB drive, start RetroPie, and copy the. (Thank you makeosaurus) UPDATE : It turns out RetroPie DOES like Pokemon games for the GBA. *Pokèmon Sapphire, Emerald, and Stadium are probably still trademarks of Nintendo, while Sonic The Hedgehog 1, 2, and 3 are probably also still trademarks of Sega, I included this here because I prefer not breaking copywrite laws and I would rather not be fined $200 for it. I've also noticed that Sega Genesis games only work when you put them in the "sega32x" folder.Īnd that is the end of this instructable! I hope you enjoyed it I will also be adding more pictures soon too! I've noticed that RetroPie doesn't like playing some certain games, so it just exits the emulator when you start it.

When your Pi restarts RetroPie, a new Emulator Icon should appear!!! If you see this, it means everything works and you can now play that game you installed! If you don't see this, it means that ROM doesn't work with RetroPie, or you did something wrong. Push the key you configured as "Start" and push "Quit". When your Pi's done copying, push "F10" ("FN+F10" for some keyboards) to quit the File Manager.
