    I installed the emulator using the retropie install script and now the "wonderswan" and "wonderswan color" folders show up in my roms main folder. I copied roms, with the correct extensions into the folder. I rebooted the system. However, the icons for WS or WSC don't show up on my frontend, as if the roms are not there. Please help!

      I solved this issue myself. The new systems now display properly in emulation station. I fixed it by deleting the file "es_systems.cfg" in /home/pi/emulationstation using the file manager.

      It did not appear to negatively affect any of my other systems or games but I have a backup image just in case.

        @wilsoncqb1911 the advantage of having that one is you can arrange the systems in any order you want. Then when you install a new system, just copy that systems info from the one es_systems.cfg to the other placing it where you want it.

          Thanks for the explanation as to the purpose of that file. I read that I could've edited it to include the new systems, but the route of simply deleting it seemed easier than editing it each time I added a new system. I'm not sure I care about the order that the systems are presented, so I likely won't miss the potential utility. Thank you for letting me know what it does.
