The light gun games can be played through lr-nestopia with a mouse, air mouse and/or various PC arcade guns that act as mice. Unfortunately, while there is also support for emulating the Power Pad via gamepad buttons, I've never run across a NES to USB adapter that supported the actual Power Pad peripheral itself.

Well done! Happy holidays.

@ther3dhood Power supply inadequate? Plug USB hub into other usb port?, on a pi zero, one is power only so this is the order as you look at it...

HDMI MicroUSB MicroUSB(power only) - use the middle one. Cheap hubs don't work, search the threads on here for best options.

I was actually able to get this figured out by establishing an internet connection over USB to my mac. The trick was most things I was reading on how to do that was using pi@raspberry.local when I needed to use pi@retropie.local (it wouldn't use SSH over the ip address for whatever reason). I was then able to install gamecon as it could fetch the latest packages and install those. Hopefully this helps someone else with a similar situation.

@kassult said in RPi B doesn't boot into controller setup:

If I remember correctly the B only needs 0.5A so I figured I was fine.

It needs more than twice that - 1.2 A

@pyd in the documentation it says that ps2 doesn't work for pi:

https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Playstation-2
"This is only for x86 builds- Not the Raspberry Pi!."

so it (and paths) are not installed on your pi

@lostless said in Copy scrape data from one RetroPie to another:

@JDubbedN
Maybe try it with emulation station shut down by pressing f4. Emulation station may be rewriting the game list files when you restart it.

@lostless That was exactly it! I even remember reading about this very same thing in the RetroPie wiki but had completely forgotten about it. Pressing F4 to close down Emulation Station and then transferring the respective files/folders over works perfectly. Thank you!

I've never really looked into the PiZero past it's initial announcement. With it's extreme low cost, compatibility with Pi1 projects and it's small size, the benefits do actually seem to outweigh the negatives. However, I remember very well that I never could push the Pi1 as much as I would have liked and I can't imagine being satisfied running a RetroPie installation on it. All that said, it's hard to deny just how awesome the plug and play RetroPie SNES controller mods are.

you can try with UXS : https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/5291/soft-universal-xml-scraper-v2-easy-scrape-with-high-quality-picture

doesn't look right.

please use proper code block formatting and descriptive post titles :)

I tried to setup a script and possible extension for retropie here: https://github.com/daeks/jslisten-abort
The intention of this extension is to be able to kill all emulators only with a controller (for example: scummvm if you have no keyboard available)

Unfortunately emulators like scummvm are started with bash script. Is there a better way to fetch the binary for such emulators?

@dankcushions

Thank you. :-)

@BuZz No overclocked, dmesg say "Out of memory: Kill process 27546 (cc1plus) score 413 or sacrifice child". The complete dmesg: http://pastebin.com/jTHKLBQr.
I'm trying with lightdm disabled. Thanks.
Edit: Fail without lightdm, I will try with multiboot.

@windale Hi, thanks a lot, works perfect!

@dsstrainer yup. Glad to help
