      Dear Retropie family, I'm not a very tech person but I've managed to install Retropie and add some games (Pokemon Silver for GB, Golden Axe 3 for Mega Drive)

      But it's the games are super slow, and I've tried overclocking to max but it's still quite slow.

      Pi Model or other hardware: #Pi Model 1 B+
      Power Supply used: Micro USB, 5V, 3000mA Ankuru
      RetroPie Version Used (eg 3.6, 3.8.1, 4.1 - do not write latest): 4.6
      Built From: (Pre made SD Image on RetroPie website
      USB Devices connected: Wifi USB and Bluetooth keyboard
      Controller used: Keyboard
      Error messages received:
      Verbose log (if relevant):
      Guide used: (Mention if you followed a guide)
      File: (File with issue - with FULL path)
      Emulator: (Name of emulator - if applicable) - I don't know which emulator is it currently using, could find how to find it.

      It is connected to a monitor using HDMI.

      What are some things I can do to make it faster? If possible that are easy to do as I have no clue. If it needs some coding then using detailed steps would help a lot

      What are some games or roms by console that are light and runnable with the B+?

      Can I get a #mouse to work with Retropie? I've tried pluggingin it on during and before turning it on and doesn't work

      What is your best source to download the roms?

      Thank you so much family!

        from the Retropie setup menu in EmulationStation enable Runcommand option

        select a game to play ... press a button to enter the Runcommand menu and select a lower resolution for the Video Mode than you're currently running the game at.
