      Hello, I have a raspberry pi 3 console and has worked fine for months but a few weeks ago it’s just stopped wanting to play any of the arcade games on there. Everything else works absolutely fine but if I select an arcade game it will ether just freeze the screen or just keep playing the title screen and not let me quit or do anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers

        @jimmy https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first - give us more info about your system and also specify which emulator/game you're having problems. Do other ROMs (non-arcade) work ?

          @mitu it’s a raspberry pi 3 model b. Absolutely every other game game on it works from every separate console but non of the arcade games let you play on them. They load up on to the title screen but non of the buttons do anything and it has to be turned off at the plug. I have very limited knowledge on this type of thing and it’s driving me crazy!!

            Please answer the questions from https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. As I said, it's important to know the emulator used and the ROM file that doesn't work.
