        Bumping your own topic just 30 min. after opening is bad forum etiquette. Here's a suggestion - don't do it. As for tagging the admin and moderation team - that's also a bad idea.

              @Unknown I'd suggest starting here: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

              Give the documentation a read. Then, if you're still stuck, come back and fill in the required information as asked for in the link.

              Almost everything is covered in the documentation.

              Retropie in a NES - Pi 3 with Mausberry circuit shutdown switch wired to buttons and 8bitdo NesPro30 controller
              Retropie in a Saturn Controller - Pi Zero, GPIO controls using DB9 driver
              Retropie in a PSX - Pi3

                            @Unknown I'm not sure if it's your issue but why do you have nds listed twice?

                                It still isn't working. Part of the problem might be that I didn't write this file, I bought my retro pie from someone on amazon. So I guess I don't know this system very well.
                                My retro pie manager sees the roms folder, but Emulation Station doesn't show NDS.

                                  We don't support 3rd party images, especially the one sold with RetroPie and/or . RetroPie has a non-commercial distribution license, so whoever sold you the system is a scammer.

                                  Please use the image from retropie.org.uk/download and then report back if you still have this issue.

                                    Dude, literally the 5th point on the list asks about the image and if it was official or not.

                                    Like @mitu says, these aren't supported and you can either go back to the guy who sold you it for support or start from scratch with a fresh install from this site.

                                      @mitu @markyh444 The image came with a ton of great games already preloaded on the SD card. If I use the image you recommended will I have to reinstall all the games and emulators the image came with? Or is there a way to just reinstall emulation station without having to redo everything?
                                      Unfortunately I do not have a receipt for the image and the seller did not identify himself. I really wish I could go back to him or her, but I can't.

                                        @mitu Is there some image that retro pie officially supports that has all the emulators installed, and all I have to do is backup the games and them add them? Thank you for your help.

                                          The official image is the only thing supported here. https://retropie.org.uk/download/

                                          You can add ROMS yourself. Most systems have a default emulator pre-installed. If they don't, most of those emulators can be found for installation in the RetroPie-Setup script under Experimental Packages.

                                            @Thorr69 I see.... Will the games automatically work if I put them roms folders on retro pie manager?
