    I'd say order one online and I'll try to help you in the meantime

    Now after you've got your USB drive in your Pi, type this to see what's mounted and where:
    df -aTh

    Let me know what it says.

        @BennySpaceCore Your USB stick is not mounted. It should show up at the bottom under /boot.

                @backstander I just tried installing the loading screen launch file, pretty sure it worked, tried to do the splash screen once more and it says

                cp: target /retropie/splashscreens is not a directory

                Same goes if I capitalize the "R" and the "P"

                  File names and directory names are case sensitive so it has to be "RetroPie"

                  Also make sure you're using the Tilde key like at the beginning of ~/RetroPie/splashscreens/

                  Type this to copy over the video splashscreen:
                  cp /media/sda1/retropiepixelsplash.mp4 ~/RetroPie/splashscreens/

                        To enable your video splashscreen:
                        RetroPie -> Splash Screens -> Choose splashscreen -> Own/Extra splashscreens (from /home/pi/RetroPie/splashscreens) -> retropiepixelsplash.mp4
                        https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/splashscreen

                        To use the Pixel Theme for EmulationStation:
                        Start button on your controller -> UI Settings -> Theme Set -> Pixel
                        After this change you'll probably need to either restart EmulationStation (or your Raspberry Pi)
                        https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/themes

                        The Pixel Runcommand System Splashscreen should already be working and when you run a game it should show a picture like these for about 2 seconds:

                              Try this variant:
                              cp /media/sda1/retropiepixelsplash.mp4 /home/pi/RetroPie/splashscreens/
