RetroPie won’t create the GameCube or Wii folders on my USB
-
Hello! I am using a Raspberry Pi 3 to run RetroPie. I got it installed fine and attempted to run Super Mario 64, all went smoothly until I attempted to add a GameCube ROM to my USB stick, when I realized that there was no ‘gc’ folder or ‘wii’ folder created.
I made sure to wait until the activity light went out for a few minutes when my RetroPie was creating the files. So anyway, I moved the system files over to my USB stick using
‘RetroPie-mount’, again, all went well. So I created the folders myself and added the ROMs to them (via SFTP). But the system just ignored them.I am really confused because it’s working fine everywhere except those two folders.
Please help!

In order for a system (GameCube/Wii) to show up in EmulationStation, their folders must be configured with an emulator. It doesn't matter if the folder exists, if it's not registered, it will not be shown.
The GC/Wii emulator in RetroPie (dolphin) is not installed and it's not available for a PI3, it's usable right now only on a PC installation. That's why there is nogc/wiifolders on your PI. -
Ok thanks
