        Add ROM, see system. If there are no ROMs in the folder you won't see the system in the carousel. You shouldn't see "PSP Mini" unless you put files/ROMs in the directory.

        If you're using a "pre-made" or "pre-loaded" system then you're going to have a REAL hard time finding anyone that can help you.

          The quickest and easiest way to delete collections for games/genres/systems you don't want if to use WinSCP and then navigate to ...

          /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/collections

          and then delete the *.xml file for the collection you don't want ... restart Emulationstation and they will be gone.

            P.S. Roms list in Carousel and Collections are 2 different things.
