      Hi! I can't seem to exit any game so I have to manully unplug the raspberry pi 3 every time and it is really annoying. I tried to press start and select at the same time that didn't work tried to use a tutorial and I tried it and that didn't work either.

        Did you by chance choose another button, other than 'select', to be your hotkey when first mapping your controller in Emulation Station?

            In that case, pressing the the xbox button+start should exit any RetroArch cores. I take it that's not the case?

            Edit: Keep in mind that any non-RetroArch cores have various methods for exiting that are documented separately.

                Not a problem. Glad it's working.
