@mitu Thank you! I will try this in the next days and let you know if It works.

@dankcushions i dont use bluetooth so never have that problem, the other one never happen im affortunate since i have the pi 4 never an issue. I understood the support but the answer need to be you can but is not recommended and only for pi4b model. The instructions i followed are that in docs, but never make the change in the memory, because i use like a pc the pi os. But all the steps are what are in the docs:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y reboot sudo update-locale LANGUAGE="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_ALL="en_GB.UTF-8" reboot sudo apt install git lsb-release -y -》 This step isnt neccesary in Buster an Pi OS git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup.git cd RetroPie-Setup sudo ./retropie_setup.sh **OK** then choose **Basic Install,** **OK**, Yes

And update the retropie script every week.

ill try that, maybe it wont fritz out and go into a weird HD resolution on the old screen

@meneer-jansen My pleasure. :)

@fenris RetroPie is not supported on any Raspberry PI distro out there - check the docs. For instance, DietPI does not have the graphics stack installed and therefore it's not suited for RetroPie.

I'd advise to start by trying the pre-built images on the RetroPie download page (which are based on Raspbian Jessie Lite image) and see how it performs.

NES games should work fine on a PI Zero-W, but for SNES I'm not so sure - others may chime in.

@msnyder there is currently a discrepancy between the GitHub wiki and the pretty docs, and that's my fault so depending on which you looked at that line may not be there.

Once I sort out a bug in the build process I'm hoping this won't be an issue in the future.

@malleymob No prob, glad i could help save you the extra steps

if anyone is else has this problem, in terminal type

sudo bash

raspi-config

change boot option to console with login

As for the retro pie set up although it says programming error it still works.
