      Ok downloaded some Sega Cd games as .Zip. Decompressed and the had .bin and .ecu. Being vin was bigger file I uploaded this to Pi, didn’t bring up SegaCD logo. Removed the .bin files and replaced them with .ecu now it brings up SegaCD logo, I select it shows the list of title but, when I chose one screen within a few seconds returns to selection screen. Ok so I then re upload the bin file too but, same thing happens. How can I get these to work?
      I have a Pi3b uploading via WiFi from an iMac.
      P.S. trying to find a working Rambo II and Wonderboy series of games. I’ve downloaded from two sources and they all seem to malfunction the same way

        @tommyellas You need to transfer both files, the .cue describes the layout of the data in the .bin file(s), the .bin contains the actual game data. More details in the Sega CD doc page - including the BIOS files needed to run CD games.

          Ok, now is there someplace that explains the Sega CD doc page in English? For example where do I find these BIOS or can I just type it in someplace and if I can just type, where do I do so?
