      Hi Guys,

      An oldie here, new to the retropie world, trying to relive my past by playing some of my old school favourites on this upright arcade machine I bought. I was wondering if anyone knows how I can change the splash screen I believe its called.

      I figured out how to get onto the boot file using a program called ubuntu, however when I swapped over the JPG in the splash screen folder, it still displayed the splash screen of the company I bought it from. Some of the other folders are locked aswell. If anyone knows how I could fix this, that would be great.

      Thanks so much in advance guys.

        You'll have to ask the vendor for that - RetroPie doesn't lock anything and certainly wouldn't prevent you from changing the splashscreen (see the docs).

        Note that selling the RetroPie image is against the project's license, if your machine has also games included then it's probably illegally selling those games.
