The genesis, snes and nes games work in both video and audio. I am not touching anything until something messes up. Thanks for your concern and I may post more here when something does happen.

I’m happy to report that I did manage to get Mario All Stars to work with the Euro version and I had the use the Jap version of Double Dragon to get it to work. I was also happy to get Dig Dug II to work as well. Even though I have not been able to figure out how to open my controller again to change or edit buttons (tried to just redo the setup but buttons didn’t change) it could be a text file but I have no idea where it is. I found a list of PSX games that will work but the games I want to play are not in there so no problem. All I really care about is nes snes and gen and that’s working so ty.

I’d say this is resolved for now.

The good news, it works! Bad news, some games still have no effect on the controller. I followed your instructions lolerzz and everything was working smoothly until I hit the binary based installation. Lot of text and a
======
Fatal Error
======

Oh boy. So I decided to just run it again, and three hours later, installed all kinds of archive and dependencies and who knows what. But in the no fatal errors and I continued through the advanced options and worked the controller which is the first time I got it to work on any game :) and I’m grateful for that. However the controller doesn’t register with the game super mario all stars. Is there a list of games where the controller has problems? I know I could always get each one individually, but I was curious. I have also noticed some games require pressing select instead of start! There is a way to open the text file to the controller and delete non used buttons or change current ones yes?

BTW I even got it to work on an analog TV and I got all this finish when my brother was walking into the door. Needless to say he’s thrilled!

Back the the Fatal Error it said something about no module ‘127’ found on platform rpi and my controller saved as USB, 2-axis8-buttongamepad.cfg

I am also assuming I need custom bios for psx emulator and I tried some games like Quest 64 and Crash Team Racing which I think is too much for the raspberry to handle, or at least from my experience. I do still have RPG maker on it so I still like messing around with it and it works :)

The control panel also told me I had to install Neogeo bios and others but I won’t be using those so it’s OK.

Thanks a lot and I hope to be able to tweak just a couple more things, but in the end it works right now and we are quite happy!

Thanks

Yes it’s kinda got me into a chaotic mode so I’ll try to be shorter and more to the point. I’ve gone through so many setups and commands that it’s hard to remember what I tried during which format at the moment.
You are right I got it on a micro sd card
I started “sudo ./retropie_setup.sh”
I selected option 4 and 5 (I’m thinking those are setups or updates as I just have them written down as steps.)
Then I searched for the ip in order the transfer the ROMS which I did.
I think at that point I started trying to configure the controller.
I’m not sure if I always did the steps you just said in order. Should I always do them after a format or should I continue with trying the sudo apt-get “”? If so I can at least try to get that far and stop until it’s figured out.
