          @spazboy1979 RetroPie is already built on Raspbian, you don't need the manual installation - you can use the RetroPie image for the Pi Zero, it's Raspbian Lite with RetroPie already installed.
          You didn't mention if you're using an USB hub, I'm just assuming you are, since you have all these devices connected to your Pi. Do you have any other devices connected ?
          Can you post a system log from your device ( the output of dmesg) to pastebin.com ?

            @mitu Thanks for your help.
            I started over and used the build from the link provided.
            Can anyone tell me where I can get Rom's ?

                I apologize for that.

                I am back to my original issue though.
                Stuck o controller configuration and this is after uninstalling the 3rd party and falling the posted link you provided.
                I set the buttons and it seems the ok button at the bottom of the screen is not registering.
                If I hit F4 to skip I get a command prompt and nothing else. The exact same screen as above.

                Any help is deeply appreciated.

                  @grimmey Is the controller registering when you run a jstest /dev/input/js0 from the command line ? See this page in the docs for manually configuring/testing the controller.
                  Can you also post the output of cat /proc/bus/input/devices (also run from the command line) ?

                    When I go to command prompt now it reads pi@raspberrypi:-$
                    All commands I type at this prompt say command not found.
                    Do I need to try a different emulator?

                      So going back thru and redoing emulation station I find this error now.
                      E: Unable to locate package libcur14-openss1-dev

                        libcurl4-openssl-dev is in the default Raspbian repositories, so it should be found, but are you connected to the internet ?
                        Regarding the command prompt commands, what commands have you tried ? jstest is in the normal $PATH and should be available by default in RetroPie's image.
