Problem with nds roms
-
Hi. I have a raspberry pi 4 with the raspbian distribution and that's where I have retropie and where I play. But I have a problem. The other day I downloaded the Nintendo DS emulator and wanted to try some game, so I downloaded one and when I tried to play it, the screen turned black with a pixelated white streak on the left, and then when I try to close it it tells me that it doesn't respond

Please add more info about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.
Are you using DraStic as included in RetroPie or did you download it separately ? You seem to be running RetroPie/EmulationStation from the desktop, which is not a tested and supported configuration. -
Well, to install retropie, I followed this tutorial: https://www.redeszone.net/2018/05/06/instalar-retropie-app-raspberry-pi/
I've tried with DraStic and nothing. I've also tried lr-desmume and lr-desmume 2015, but it doesn't respond when entering the game. I download these emulators from retropie, not from another side.
Is there anything else I can tell you about my problem? -
I've also tried other emulators like N64, Mame, Game Boy Advance... and they work great. It's just with the nds roms.

@PAFB8 said in Problem with nds roms:
It's just with the nds roms.
Then maybe the NDS roms are not correct - have you tried to run them in another emulator, on your PC ?
-
Yes I have tried them on other emulators, but they just either do not open or the screen remains blank and I have to force the closing of the retropie because it doesn't respond. And it's weird because I have downloaded the roms from different sites to try them but nothing happens.

@PAFB8 Try to install using the image from retropie.org.uk/download, using the desktop to run RetroPie is not tested/supported. The only viable NDS emulator on the Pi is
drastic, other emulator(s) are too slow to be a working alternative. -

Don't worry. I don't know what I did what now It works great.
