      dear all,
      maybe you can help me. I have installed Retropie with success on my RASPBERRY 3 +.
      I have downloaded roms and copied them with the usb key (I do not use the WIFI).
      I thought there was already the emulator required to launch the games so I tried to launch games on Super Nes, Megadrive but the launching failed everytime...the game started sometimes with the screen of game's presentation, but when I press ''start'' ,I was redirected to raspberry start screen..
      I am lost.. I tried several games on several platform but the games never run correctly, do you know if I need to modify some stuff on the menu ? or download other thing?

      thanks a lot for your help and sorry for my English if I was not very fluent.

      edouard

        @ded751 it looks like you mapped your controller's hotkey to a start also ? Re-map your controller in Emulationstation, just like the first time, and don't choose any buttons Hotkey. The mapping dialog will ask you if you want to choose Select as hotkey - select yes and then press A to accept the settings. Remember that Select + Start is the shortcut to exit the emulator.
