      I had OpenBOR working on my pi2 and recently upgraded to a pi3. I installed OpenBOR and followed the instructions on the wiki but it doesn't work anymore. Does anyone know of a fix or have it working on their pi3? Any help would be appreciated.

        It works on my pi2 just fine but that's a build someone gave me that I put on it myself and created a bash script to have it load from ports. I tried using that again on the pi3 and while it works on the pi2 with the version of libsdl-gfx1.2-dev but not the updated version that is currently installed. I don't know enough to know if it will break something if I revert to the older version of that or even how to do it.

          I've been having a weird problem with the OpenBOR version that is installed from
          the RetroPie Setup Script and it's been the same problem with RetroPie 3.7, 3.8.1 and 4.0rc1. I have a Raspberry Pi 3.

          I can get the OpenBOR games to load up and show the intro and then make it to the title screen but when I pick anything on the menu, I get kicked out back to EmulationStation. This same issue happens with every game I've tried and I've tried like about 20 of them so far.

          @RynoRoe which version of RetroPie are you running?
