@h2805270 Really clever idea, looks a lot like Teletext, and clean layout too. My only reservation is that I'm not sure I'd want to spend too long looking a Teletext screen, as they're not the easiest on the eye. I was never a big user back in its heyday though, and others may well have a greater fondness and nostalgia for it.

a not good solution is use this:
<helpsystem name="help">
<fontPath>./_res/fonts/TitilliumWeb-Regular.ttf</fontPath>
<fontSize>0.035</fontSize>
<origin>0 0</origin>
<pos>1 1</pos>
</helpsystem>

but i would prefer to hide the help, but allow the user to reactivate it from the menu if he wants.

@Super-Retropie Cool! Thanks for your hard work!

sorry if I ask again

I'm not the one that will merge the PR - another developer will do it.

Nostalgia Pure (lite)

HUGE Thank you to the original creator(s) of this theme!

Changelog (by myself)

added 'All Games' added 'Ports' added 'RetroPie'
(there is also a second one called retropie2.png, if you prefer one without Rpi)

Installation:

copy to sd-card

Themes can be copied to either /etc/emulationstation/themes and /home/pi/.emulationstation/themes, they're read by Emulationstation from both locations.

copy via network: Windows: Open \\retropie\configs\all\emulationstation\themes\ in the Windows File Explorer Linux: smb://retropie.local/configs/all/emulationstation/themes

IMPORTANT: I recommend EmulationStation's VRAM setting at (min.) 120Mb (Rpi4).
(Main Menu > Other Settings > VRAM Limit)

Best regards,
Anti-You

@dmmarti

Thanks ! they will come in handy

Appreciate your time and sharing them :)

Some process pics added

@Arcanthur Is that possible for this theme to auto scroll the game playlist? For example, after the video snap is played, I would like it to scroll to the next game title.

@FlavioBello11 awesome!

@Brandon12345678 Ok I got it working. Using only one font helped. Thanks for the help.

Thanks a lot for replying all my posts ;-) (I figured out how to receive email notifications...)

I guess I need to try and probably fine tune them then.
Thank you.

Fred

Nice! Are you still working on this?

Alright thanks! Last question (I would like to work on a new theme) Is a PS4 like UI possible with Retropie? So the selected icon isnt always in the middle? Thanks!

Maybe you all can help me. In the first screenshot here, it shows the "gameOS" logo with a video (or something) playing behind it on the homepage. I want mine to replicate that. Mine seemingly loads my most recently played or favorite games and puts them in a carousel/slideshow. Is there a way I can disable this?

RetroPie is not really a distro, so I wouldn't call it that way. If you're just forking the main project, with the intention of providing a different configuration, then make it an independent project and mention that it's just a RetroPie 'spin'/derivative work.

@Bluebotlabs If it's not in the documentation, then it's not supported.

Showcase gives that arcade like feel in a way.
