      Hi guys, very new to the whole retropie scene. I have a 128gb retropie image, but no sd card that size. I was wondering if it's possible to just extract a few folders from the card ie. Mame, snes and so on. I have tried mounting it with daemon tools, but it doesn't recognise it. I'm running Windows 7. If anyone can help I'll be very grateful.

        Yes it is.
        Google for Linux Reader... That Windows tool can Mount and extract files from SD card images and ext file systems in general.
