@Crush Thank you so much! That worked perfectly

I couldn't find any contact info for them. I am very sorry, I was just looking for any help.

@MrCoffee The RetroFlag Snes controllers are the best aftermarket wired Snes controllers i have tested.

@studysession double check your GPIO connection. Also try switching to unsafe shutdown (switch in the case PCB) if you have that and see if you have it to power on.

I saw that too, but I want to know what I would need to do for the SNES case.

@malingjc check content of your rc.local please. Can you post content of this file to pastebin.com please?

@SolemnSpirit Thanks that helped!, the moment i remove the key_mgmt, i was able to connect to the wireless! :D i appreciate you posting this!

My understanding from watching various YT reviews of the Mega Drive Mini is that the Mega Pi is slightly smaller but more substantial feeling, so I imagine that would put the kibosh on the "Tower of Power" thing sadly. That said, I noticed that Retroflag recently brought out a nice addition to the SNES version which adds a (purely cosmetic) cartridge to it. I wonder if they're eyeing up the Tower of Power and considering it as a potential future product addition to their Mega Pi? Would be nice if so. God I love my Mega Pi. I give it a wee cuddle every day you know. It's nothing weird. Honest.

@SinisterSpatula said in [Theme] gpiOS (based on gameOS) Pegasus front end theme modified for Retroflag Gpi case: https://github.com/SinisterSpatula/pegasus-theme-gpiOS Anyone know where to download gameOS / Pegasus sd image for Retroflag GPi?

It was the bloody power source! I didn't bother hooking it up to a decent power brick because I figured the Pi zero didn't need as much juice as my Pi 3... Idiot... Thanks for your inputs guys.

@mitu said in Custom safe shutdown text / screen: @lesk No, you'll need to edit the /etc/rc.local file and replace the 1st line (which should have been added by the RetroFlag script) with the 2nd one. Use sudo nano /etc/rc.local to edit the file. Okay thanks! I will give this a shot ^^

@mitu Thanks Bro, fixed!

If your Gpi is a newer model, the select button was changed to the start button, so select+DPAD LEFT becomes start+DPAD LEFT.

@andku85 there are a bunch of working solution already posted in this forum as @mitu already said - best way would be the officia l script from the case producer. You can search for multi switch script for another working solution but this needs some editing skills

I tried buying one and it kept saying my cart was empty when I would click the add button. I'll just have to wait for the next batch. Amazon needs a better system here.

@mattrixk many thanks! All images, icons and logos of consoles, images of buttons, etc., I drew myself. The only thing I borrowed is the icons for the RetroPie settings. I don’t even remember who their author is, but it was someone from the same forum. They are in the catalog: retropie/icons

@cyperghost The output of my raspi-gpio get 3 was "level=0 fsel=0 func=INPUT", but if I put it in line 322 the Pi always turns off as soon as emulationstation loads, even if completely disconnected from the case. However, I just realised something... the power socket on the MEGAPi case it's not just a cutout, like the HDMI port, but it has its own little board, I didn't notice until now, I just mindlessly plugged the power directly to the Pi, and that was the problem, the multi_switch.sh now works perfectly. Sorry for wasting your time :( (however, the fact that multiswitch086.sh almost worked without using the power board was in itself impressive). As a partial way to make amends I'll correct an error on the installation instructions of the script: Here you have to add a sudo before chmod, otherwise it gives you "permission denied" wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crcerror/ES-generic-shutdown/master/multi_switch.sh && chmod +x multi_switch.sh

Glad you git it working. One minor niggle - rpi-update is no longer a recommended way to update your kernel/firmware, this is taken care by the normal OS/package updates. For the time when the problem was reported - immediately after the 3B+ launch - I think some improvements w.r.t the 3B+ model were added that were only available through the latest development kernel/firmware versions. Anyway, keep an eye on the disk space and happy gaming!

Thanks folks for your great advice and quick response. Making the keyboard change in raspi-config worked like a charm. By the way, I highly recommend this nespicase+ case. Thanks again!!!

@mitu @cyperghost I sent an e-mail to RetroFlag the other day describing the issue and from looking at the photo of the wires I sent, they said the colored wires were in the wrong position. They apologized then gave some directions on how to take the wires out and what the proper color order is. I tried taking them out of the black plug but it seemed a bit of a hassle. Fortunately a replacement case arrived from Amazon today and the colored wires in the replacement case are in the correct position. I rebuilt my RetroPie and the shutdown and reset worked right away :). Thanks again for the help. tldr: Original case wires were messed up, replacement worked.
