        You're sure you downloaded the version for the Raspberry Pi and not the one for Linux 32 bit ?

          Yes defiantly had the pi version!
          I just went to the location you said about the run command and this is what is written..

          Parameters:
          Executing: /home/pi/pico-8/pico8 /home/pi/pico-8/lexaloffle-pico8.png
          /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh: line 1251: /home/pi/pico-8/pico8: Permission denied

            /home/pi/pico-8/pico8

            Try running the following from the command line

            chmod +x /home/pi/pico-8/pico8
            

            and see if the game(s) launch.

                  @sumps No, there's no need to reboot, just restart EmulationStation back.

                      @mitu yes definitely all working now
                      Just can’t get any controls to work apart from a plugged in keyboard!?

                        I've created a script in the RetroPie-Extra repo for adding the Pico8 as its own system to your RetroPie install: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zerojay/RetroPie-Extra/master/scriptmodules/emulators/pico8.sh
