My issue seemed to be centered around the install directory of retropie, for some reason during my first install attempt it installed itself (although it was missing a lot) to the home/root/… directory.

My issues appear to be solely based upon the folder locations being inside of root (which must have been my error)

I reinstalled retropie again after updating the setup script and everything was installed to the correct /home/pi/…. directory.

I could ssh into the pi and access the root folders but was still unable to add roms. Now that the install is in the correct folder I have no problem adding them to the correct folders especially through samba :)

Now I just have to deal with my blank black screen errors!

Thanks for all the support so far :)

You wouldn’t be able to use the snes anymore….
But if you are dealing with a dead snes, then there really isn’t a reason to not salvage the controller ports if you can.

Note that it is probably the cheapest to buy SNES extension cables on ebay and just use those.

for what it is worth something went wrong during the installation.

I re-installed retropie and now all the folders are in the home/pi/ sub-directory.
