Not asking for Rom Locations, but other stuff

[wthierry]

I have found roms, I have installed many, but some very popular roms tend to not work on retropie. How do I know if the roms I am finding will work with retropie and not waste my time on them? I do not want links, just info. thanks!

for lists of roms for each emulator see these pages:

You can also use the scanner tool with clrmamepro to see which roms you have- see a little after 7 minutes on this video:
