      Hey, i purchased a pre-made unit off ebay, installed approximately 6 SNES ROMs on it last night and was all working fine. Turned the unit on today and now under SNES it is saying 731 games available and none of them are working. It is also showing up all the different systems which i have never installed ROMS for such as Sega, Atari, etc, which are saying 100's of games available also.

      Any help would be much appreciated.

      Pi 3
      RetroPie Version Used : 4.0.3
      Built From: (Pre made unit from Retro Pie Australia on ebay
      Controller used: SNES

        You should ask the scammers that sold it to you. It's illegal to sell pi's with retropie and games pre-installed. No one in here can help you unless you start fresh with a clean install.

          @Spag You are not the first and you wont be the last to get scammed. Nobody knows about illegal third party builds and how they are set up. Retropie is free software so the only way to get support is to use a build downloaded from this website. I have not yet seen any post that says the suppliers of these systems have offered any support to the people they stole from.

            @Darksavior It didn't come with games installed, looks like its just the gameslist which is showing up for some reason. I purchased the unit as it was cheaper than buying the individual parts and figured it would all be set up. Have contact the company for there help
