@BuZz @mitu Yes, I realized at some point the other day my foolish self was in SU and I processed an update which is why this all happened!

Thanks for all the help! This can be closed.

@Unknown Even if it was supported, a pi4 will never run most games at a playable speed. Buy a used wii with gc support from ebay or a shop. It's sometimes cheaper than a pi4.

If you've watched videos, the performance is not worth the hassle. If I really want to play gc/wii, I'll use an emulator on my pc, or use a real wii which I got for ~$30 many years ago.

I have solved the audio issue. I looked back at my es_systems.cfg file in my .emulationstation folder. I noticed that it points to the RetroArch executable in D:\ (my microSD card). I double clicked it and went to the Audio driver section/Output to make sure that audio was turned on. The Audio was also changed from xaudio to dsound. I also went to the Driver section to make that Audio was identified as dsound there as well.

i feel stupid, thanks alot

EDIT: wow performance is absolute garbage, how can this be, i looked in some forums, and everybody is like "oh you need dual core" dude i have a quad core 3.4 Ghz i7? Is it the settings or is it ubuntu itself?

I'm new to retropie, the PI4 was sleeping nearly a year until I guess I found a project where I want to use it. :-)
although well documented on the github it is not for raspberry pi, did anybody try to compile and build it as a selectable option in retropie based on a raspberry pi 4, suceeded and has a half-newbie howto for this? :-)

thank you!

It's fixed!

I've removed all .ini files in /opt/retropie/configs/gc/Config
After that I opened Dolphin and I can use the keyboard now to navigate the menu.

@grant2258 Thank you for the response! I certainly can use the standalone version, which I will probably end up doing. I want to eventually (possibly) replace my Raspberry Pi with a small laptop that runs RetroPie, since I have access to better hardware. So I was hoping to setup a system I can connect to the TV and use the interface entirely with the controller.

I'll just have to make due for now, and choose a solution that suits me best.

@mitu Alright, thank you for your help!

@mitu Installing the dependancies listed on the link you provided seems to gave done the trick. Thanks so much!

For those who are curious, I ran the following command as suggested by the Dolphin installation page (cut and pasted here for your convenience).

sudo apt install cmake pkg-config git libao-dev libasound2-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libbluetooth-dev libenet-dev libgtk2.0-dev liblzo2-dev libminiupnpc-dev libopenal-dev libpulse-dev libreadline-dev libsfml-dev libsoil-dev libsoundtouch-dev libswscale-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libwxbase3.0-dev libwxgtk3.0-dev libxext-dev libxrandr-dev portaudio19-dev zlib1g-dev libudev-dev libevdev-dev "libpolarssl-dev|libmbedtls-dev" libcurl4-openssl-dev libegl1-mesa-dev libpng-dev qtbase5-private-dev

@cigdangle said in Dolphin stopped working since updating packages:

RetroPie Version Used (eg 3.6, 3.8.1, 4.1 - do not write latest):

RetroPie Version Used (eg 3.6, 3.8.1, 4.1 - do not write latest): 4.2.20

@tonythetiger don't use them. /dev/shm/runcommand.log may have more info.
