      Wow guys. You wanna know what the problem was the entire time? The NEPSI classic NES box! Not sure if you are familiar but it comes with plug ins that you like plug in to your usb ports on the pi, this makes it so you can turn it on and off like the original NES. So, when my pi is plugged into the NEPSI plugs ins, it WILL NOT boot! But not hooked up, it boots just fine and goes into ES. I have plugged it in and unplugged it 3 times just to be sure. That is crazy.

          @jbryan1984 Then you might not get enough power through the case adapter, that's not the first time when this pops up.
