      @Charco you can put them in the arcade folder but they will show up under arcade not mame

      If you read the documentation it will answer 99% of your questions: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/

        @Charco yes (although as Charco says it will appear as 'Arcade' in the menu, not Mame), but creating sub folders won't automatically mean those games run in those emulators, it would just make two subfolders in the meny.

        you'd still have to (via the runcommand) set one (eg AdvMame) as the default emulator for mame, and then individually go through the other half and set it to the mame4all emulator, as per the documentation: https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/MAME#arcade

            @Riverstorm I'm also trying to get a "Golden Age of Arcade vide games" box up and running. Have you managed to get Dynablasters (aka Atomic Bomberman) up and running with 4 players? I bought 4 SNES USB controllers, that I'm hoping to be using for this. Any hints on that?
