    @gameguru the only trouble you'll run into is monetisation issues. YouTube is built on people playing games. YouTube has built in code to detect when you're playing copyrighted content and then they automatically put ads up on your video but instead of you getting monetisation it goes to Nintendo.

    The way around this is to play gameplay of multiple games so multiple companies have claim which means none of them can monetise on your video as YouTube can't give preferential treatment.

    Just in case you were curious anyways... Another way around it would be to mute the gameplay as well I believe

    Oh... for easiest plug and play from a Pi, you probably want a controller board that identifies as a keyboard, or as a 360 controller. There are many of these on the market. Watch out for some gotchas with ones marketed as Xin-Mo, there are actually several makes being sold under that name and they aren't all the same (Paradise Arcade in particular carries ones labeled Xin-Mo that may require a fresh kernel compilation).

    @acevr6: As @dankcushions mentioned, we don't support any 3rd-party set-ups as we have no idea how they are set up, so if you are wanting to start fresh, I suppose your best bet will be to format your SD card (or get a new one if you don't want to delete what you already have) and follow the Documentation. It's all pretty straight forward and if you get stuck anywhere there are people here that can help you.

    I also use universal scraper v2, despite how buggy it is in windows. Keeps crashing for whatever reason, and I need to do a clean install each time I restart it. Despite all that, I found it to be best method for me, since I can edit the gamelist.xml before I scrape so once it's all done, it's all ready to work with retropie on my pi. Even then, odds are you might be missing a few games here and there. I just manually scrape those in ES.

    @sleepyowl Funnily enough me too, just using it as a plug in USB controller but probably still need to manually set the hack mode to 0 (thought that was just a bt thing)
    Who knows, lots of playing around to do with it:)

    Edit: Yup, even with just usb connection hack mode needs changing to off.

    Apparently it's as powerfull as a wii. so no n64 mini classic on that board.

    Well, looks like the Wii just got roasted.

    Well, issue solved. It seems that moonlight was bringing full desktop streaming to rpi, giving those lags. It was too fast so i didn't noticed. Solved by using a .bat file on Windows to force autoplay and no gui:

    @ECHO OFF "C:\Program Files (x86)\PCSX2 1.4.0\pcsx2.exe" "D:\Jogos\PS2\gta_vicecity_ps2.iso" --nogui --fullscreen

    At the Geforce Experience Tool, click at configurations(little cog at upper right corner), SHIELD menu, Add(Adicionar, Brazilian Portuguese) and point to this bat file and you are good to go. In my case, i have just edited the pcsx2 gamestream entry.

    Now, games are running smooth.

    @meleu Ok, yeah if I ever figure it out I'll share with the community. I did manage to get the Lords of Thunder CD game working relatively easily. Not sure why Castlevania Dracula X is any different, but there must be a reason.

    @akafox it sucks it isn't playable on the pi since it isnt dos or windows 3.1. Lots of dos star wars games though. I bought all of them on disc and floppy except the original star wars which was on a 5.25" floppy. I would download the unreleased super star wars as well for dos.

    @jdrassa I did an entire update to all even a kernel update to see if that would help out, but I'll have to check the build number to be positive. Also, I have the Kids Emulation Station build enabled as a safety measure. I don't know if that may have something to do with it.

    @dankcushions
    One more thing.

    The emulationstation , detected my two controllers, so i have to assign both them?

    yeah configure them both in emulationstation

    How can i delete games ( i have some that i don´t want them) from my sdcard through the retropie , it´s possible?

    yeah! i think 'select'to get to the selected game's options > edit metadata > delete :)
