      Is there anyway to remove systems like Amiga, Apple 2, etc. By just using the controller and accessing through a menu rather then doing it through a computer?

      Thanks, Josh

          Edit: My understanding is that when you are looking through your various emulators with Emulation Station, you only want to see the ones you use.

          The way I do it is via FTP. I haven't tried through the menus, though I think it can be done but you would need a usb keyboard connected to your pi.

          • In /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/, create a folder, I like to call mine "_unused" without the quotes, so it is always listed on top
          • Move all unwanted emulator ROM folders to: /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/_unused
          • Restart Emulation Station
          • You'll now see only the emulators in the root of /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ that are not in a subdirectory

          Does this make sense?
