Is there any way to boot straight in to the detailed view for a specific emulator?

But honestly.. it would feel great to pop in my old Zelda cartridge.. maybe blow on the connectors.. just for old times sake.
LOL I feel you there.

I just love everything about this topic!
People working together to recreate a romantic notion of times well past, applying state of the art techniques to emulate the old. It's great!I am anxious to see where this will end.

Not sure if this was answered yet, but you can actually tell ES to not show fast system select (therefore going straight into the game list) and then editing your es_systems.cfg file to show NES first. If NES is your only system, then that will get ES to boot straight into detailed games list of NES.

@spitoni Wow, old topic. Do you have any experience with linux command line, or do you have a windows computer and can access your raspberry pi over the network?
There are quite a few ways to make changes to the config file.

Sorry for dredging up an old topic again RV... :-\
But, could you provide some details? I'm very comfortable with Linux command line.
TIA!

@johnodon If your intention is to boot straight into a particular system when ES starts, then this is now a setting in Emulationstation, so no need to modify config files or mess with the command line. Just make sure you have the latest update in RetroPie and look in the
UI Settings
, underStart on System

Exactly what I needed. TY mitu.
Now I just need to find a way to disable the ability to go back to the main screen. The only way I have come up with is to not map a 'back' button but don't want to have to resort to that. Any better ideas out there?

@johnodon What are you trying to do ?

I basically want to have only one system (Arcade) and not be able to back out of it to the main system select screen.
