@senkun said in PiTFT Plus 480x320 3.5" TFT screen and a Raspberry PI 3 cannot run RetroPie:
@babybunny said :
Yes I have the same boot/config.txt but im trying to run retropie not Jessie Raspbian.
Yes, I understand that. Whichever way you ended up with Retropie, either by an install over Jessie or from a direct image, I had assumed you meant retropie.
When you said;
The screen runs perfectly with the latest Jessie Raspbian image, but does not run with RetroPie, just a white or black screen.
RetroPie will show up on my HDMI monitor just fine, but it will not show on the 3.5 Pitft.
I had assumed you meant your retropie install shows up on hdmi but not on the TFT. Is this not the case?
Retropie will display on my HDMI monitor but not on the TFT, yes this is the case. I have decided to give up on the PiTFT Plus 480x320 3.5" TFT+Touchscreen and will try the PiTFT Plus 320x240 3.2" TFT + Resistive Touchscreen when it arrives in the mail. I am glad all these parts don't cost too much money. Adafruit has stated that this 3.2 inch PITFT is exactly like the 2.8 PITFT in all regards; same driver, same resolution, the only difference is that its a little bigger, and the raspberry pi itself wont know the difference either, which leads me to believe that it will work with Retropie natively. I will let you know if it doesn't. Thank you for your support.
