    Hi, I'm new here,
    I was wondering if I can use this to play Classic bubble bobble. I am making an arcade cabinet for the only purpose of playing bubble bobble. Let me know. Thanks

      Arcade emulation is included in RetroPie, so it's possible to run Bubble Bobble. Though for running just one game, installing RetroPie may be too much - you can install just an arcade emulator on your Raspberry Pi and configure it to start on boot automatically with the game you choose.

        @mitu Hi, Thank you for responding. Yes, so it would be only that game. What emulator would be used for bubble bobble. Also, would I need to program the buttons to do the actions in the game. I would like to do 2 players with a joystick and two buttons per person. Thanks.

          Not sure if you're asking for instruction for RetroPie or not, but if it's for RetroPie, take a look at the Docs. There's a special getting started section which covers the initial installation and configuration (including controllers), this is where you should start. Arcade emulation is covered in its own section, if you need more information or something doesn't work.

            @mitu Hi,
            Thank you for responding. I figured it out last night with just trial and error. I do have one more question. I am making an arcade with a IPAC2. How can I set up a two-player system once I'm on retropie? Thanks.
