      I have tried searching so I wouldn't have to post a new topic, but I think what I am searching has too many common terms, so I am unable to find a topic that can help (if one exists, please link below). I am trying to find an emulator that can run a win32 or win64 file, see the image below of the files within the zip. I have tried all the standard emulators, but none seem to work, is there another emulator I can install to run the game? If I double-click the .exe the game boots up on a computer, but in Pi there is no boot, just a black screen.

      I am using a Raspberry Pi 3, the latest version of RetroPie, and could link to the game, but don't want to break the Forum Rules. The game is called America's Retribution, there are the win32/64 versions and an osx version.

        Can you click on the 3 dots and edit your post? Remove either the four spaces in front of your first word or any backticks you used. It is impossible to read your post the way you made it format.

          @snes_you You could have at least mentioned the name of the game ? Does it have a Linux version ? There is no 'emulator' for Win32 games in RetroPie, the closest to an emulator is Wine (winhq.org) but it doesn't run very well on ARM processor.
          There is a helper that emulates an x86 environment (ExaGear) and works in conjunction with Wine, that's a commercial product.

              America's Retribution is the game, only the win32/64 versions and an osx version. I'll check out winhq and ExaGear, thank you!

                @snes_you Looks like a Metal Slug rip off - at least the sound and audio. I'd suggest to give that a try.
