@obsidianspider Hyper Pacman and Hyperman 2 are great fun. They may be unlicensed rip-offs, but they're quirky and fun.

@auster For my list at least, I try not to include games removed by their developers, as that in a way indicates that the game is no longer freely available from the perspective of the developer.

@kchavpro This is a pretty easy fix. You aren't seeing 2010 because it is optional and you have to install it.

Hit start on your controller and select "Quit", then "Quit Emulationstation" and it will put you into command line. Type the following spaces and caps exactly as shown:

sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_setup.sh

That will bring you into the back end menu. You can also do this through the graphical menu by going to Retropie and then choosing the "Retropie Setup" option in the menu but I don't recommend it.

I recommend getting used to doing it through the command line to get comfortable with it. As you get better with this you may want to change other things and certain changes require you quit Emulationstation in order for the changes to commit, so it's best to practice.

Hit "Manage Packages" then "Manage Optional Packages". Scroll down until you see "lr-mame2010" and hit enter or A on you controller. I think it's line 239. You can install either via source or binary, but know that source will take a lot longer, so be patient.

Once the install is done, back out of the menus (escape key) until you get to one with an option to reboot. Hit reboot and wait for it to restart. If you back out too far and end up back in the command line, don't worry. Just type "emulationstation" and hit enter. It will restart the graphical interface.

Now when you go to configure a machine in MAME, 2010 should be in your list of options.

A little detail on the topic here. https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Updating-RetroPie/#manage-packages If you need visuals. Search the web for "Install Optional Packages Retropie". There should be some good videos out there.

Good luck!

@folly I'll give it a go again but my version wasn't even getting that far...

More compatibility is always good!

Hello everyone,

I am a new user of retropie, and after some painful "first time user, no idea why this doesn't work" stint, I have stumbled upon this beautiful guide, which I closely followed and lo and behold, the share is visible. I even managed to make it writable using the alternative mount command from the guide.

Excellent work, congratulations!

Yes, cheats are available, depending on the emulator used. RetroArch is the main emulator used in a lot of systems and it supports cheats - see the doc page on how to enable and use cheats.

@piboy It appears that at best PS2 will be like N64 on pi 3 . Some games work but most don’t.

I have three different HORI Real Arcade Pro joysticks (4, 4 Kai, and V). All three work with my Pi 3 and Pi 4.

They are high quality arcade sticks that run you about $80 USD on the secondhand market. If you find one in good condition for less, it's a steal.

So in other words, this is all total BS?
