      @mitu thanks for the quick reply, I just downloaded the latest 4.8 vanilla info from retropie.org.uk for a Pi 4 but I did not do the update, will give that a shot and report back

        @mitu that did the trick! thanks again!

        What i'll do is add a check to the Pixelcade installer script to do that.

        I can dig around the RetroPie update script but do you know if there is a way to check the ES version from bash. If so, then I can just check if the user has what is needed and if not, kick off the updater.

          @mitu I can grep the output of ./emulationstation -h to get the version so that'll work for Pixelcade script

          Version 2.11.0rp, built Dec 10 2022 - 12:26:20

          would you happen to know what minimum version of ES has the new scripts (game-select and system-select)

            as an fyi, the vanilla 4.8 download has ES 2.10.1rp and then after updating from the RetroPie updater, it's 2.11.0rp so I'll use a minimum required of 2.11 for now unless you know different, thanks again
