      @joecool Emulationstation is not the emulator for the game, it's just the front-end launching the emulator. If you want to get a more detailed log for the emulator, enable verbose logging in the Runcommand launch menu and then look in the log file - /dev/shm/runcommand.log - to see if you spot the error.
      Also, please include as much information possible from the info requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

          In verbose mode, here are my errors:

          I'm going to check that. The /home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS/neocdz file is the Neogeo BIOS, right ?
          Why is it missing ? Strange...

              @joecool You're trying to launch a Neogoe CD game and you're missing the BIOS file required - neocdz. Are you sure you didn't accidentally changed the Neogeo system's emulator from the default one to lr-fbalpha-neocd ?

                @all. I try to launch Metal Slug. I don't understand why it tries to find this neocdz.zip bios. I have the neogeo.zip file here.

                  @joecool Please post the whole log file over at pastebin.com so we can also take a look and see my previous message - check your Runcommand launch menu and see which emulator is used to launch the game.

                    This is possible but how to change that ?

                        Yes, yes, yes, you're right. There was another emulator by default (lr-fbalpha-neocd). My machine was installed in a public place but in Kid mode with zero tech menu and the runcommand disabled.

                        How is it possible for somebody to change this emulator default ?

                            In a cafe. But I think I undestrand what happend. The button 0 is the A button, so somebody selected a game by clicking on the A button many time (don't know why). The runcommand was launched and the other emulator was selected.

                            I have to disabled the runcommand menu to avoid that.

                            Thanks for your lights, sincerelly ^^ !

                              The RetroPie license does not allow commercial usage or distribution - https://retropie.org.uk/about/legal/. By using it in a commercial place, you're in breach of this license, not mentioning probably the copyright violation for the ROMs you included in the image.

                                Yes, I know, it was just for a test. To try it in a complex environment.

                                  Such a poor excuse for breaking the rules. There's no support for scammers here.
