Sorry, no direct solution to your problem, but another option could be mame 2003 plus which has much better vector graphic support and settings than the original mame 2003.

I also used AdvMAME until mame2003-plus got the vector update. Then I switched to get the global libretro configuration.

@MaximStroud Have you tried adding the bios files and boot it that way ? Can you provide the log file (/dev/shm/runcommand.log) taken after starting the game ? What other games have you tried running ?

@twinparadox

Nice troubleshooting. These types of problems with RetroArch turn up often when 'Save Configuration on Exit' is enabled, so be sure to make those files your first port of call for any other inexplicable issues going forward.

You can try to use the SD Card Copier that is now available in Raspbian. I don't know if it's available in Jessie tho, so I'm not sure if you could install Raspbian within Retropie and copy your running SD to an SD connected via USB.
Otherwise you need to set up an extra Card just with Raspbian and use two card readers to clone your card. The tool will clone your card to smaller/bigger cards and shrink/expand the filesystem automatically.
I only tried it with my OSMC card and got an error message on the new card, but OSMC is not suppose to have the filesystem size changed afterwards and i was using an older Noobs version. So I'm not sure if it would work with Retropie flawlessly and i don't have spare cards to test it.

@meleu any change there's an image out there that already has the pi 0w patched in already ? I want to install it on a separate SD card to compare the two versions. Thank you

There are plenty of games with notes for Pi2 and no notes for Pi3. Generally means they suffer from the same issues.

@cheeezeburgers I'm glad this is still helping people. I still think that once you load a game, it somehow changes the core config file to read only, or somehow locks part of it out in the process of emulation, hence when closing the game while still running the emulator, this works. But this is just a theory. Retroarch seems to do this on the PC as well.

@axis_d where did you put those files?

Solved! This is how you get Intellivision to work on 4.1 ! give @edmaul69 a thumbs up!

@herb_fargus Hi there, thanks for your reply :)
should I try installing Kodi, or Retropie again? Or both?

EDIT: I managed to solve the problem by updating Kernel. I Hope this helps someone in the future!

@anasazi29

never copy and paste the python script. HAND type it. its not that big and it wont take that long.

Now that you said this, I noticed on your original post that you had something like “shutdown -h now” but those quotes aren't recognized as quote by the RPi. They need to be ASCII quotes like this "shutdown -h now" so when you retyped it by hand you actually fixed these quotes!

We just talked about this the other day.

I'm sure there are some ppl just <sighing> about this and think that its silly that I got these confused

I wouldn't worry about that and most of the ppl on this forum are here to help and to learn. Hopefully someone else finds this and it helps them resolve their wrong use of quotation dilemmas lol.

Run sudo apt-get update && apt-get -y dist-upgrade && apt-get install pulseaudio

Hello! I don't have any Raspberry , but I have miniPC with configuration:
CPU Rk3066 Dual Core 1.2-1.6G (Cortex-A9) + Quad core mali400 GPU
RAM FLASH 4GB/RAM DDR3 1GB, support microSD up to 32Gb
It works with Android 4.2 now.
Can I use any Retropie version on my miniPC? Or it impossible?

@herb_fargus too late dude, he's gone.

@jotinkarter I did! I got a rock candy wireless 2.4 Mhz controller and it works like a charm

Platinum Gamer Package $350 (includes KODI, built in wifi, 3 controllers of your choice and 1,000+ additional games for PlayStation)*

Just to note, what the guy is selling at $350 is what I built for ~$150

Well I want 3 of these controllers:
