      I have a raspberry pi 3 and I want to try to play a game and watch games and I installed the emulator lr-gw and I put my game and watch roms in the /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/gameandwatch folder and it did not show up and in the logs it says System "gameandwatch" has no games! Ignoring it. Can everyone help

        Did you unzip the roms? It looks like gameandwatch system only supports .mgw extension:
