Use mount to see if the partition on your USB has been mounted, fdisk will only list the partitions on the disc.

@mitu sorry, it seems as if I was wrong. Today I tried to do it by Wi-Fi and found the roms are there. Which makes wonder why are they showing? I know depending on how it's set up but by default it should show game systems for the roms but none of that is showing.

[mitu]

Care to be more specific ? Each system has a list of supported file extensions, so if the ROM files are correctly named and you restart EmulationStation, they should show up in the game list.

@mitu ok I have a bunch of roms in nes folder and some in Atari folder I've restarted emulator and the pi nothing shows up when it restarted it just shows retropie

[saccublenda]

@oldgamepie What are the extensions of the atari and nes roms? What emulators are you using for atari and nes?

[oldgamepie]

@saccublenda nes .nes and atari I believe we're .bin

[saccublenda]

@oldgamepie Look into the file /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg and see if .nes and .bin extensions are listed among the Nintendo Entertainment System and Atari 2600 extensions.

[oldgamepie]

@saccublenda yes the extensions are the proper ones for each system

[mitu]

Check EmulationStation's settings, under Other, and see if you have Parse Gamelists Only turned on. If you do, then turn it off and then restart EmulationStation.

@mitu thank you, thank you, thank you that was the fix .

[mitu]

Hm, that's weird - by default that option is off, did you turn it on yourself ?

[oldgamepie]

@mitu I might have by accident because at on point I was having a hard time finding where to pair with bluetooth for a controller
