      @raspberry79, each emulator within RetroPie has its own requirements and specifications for which file type it will support.

      While some emulators support compressed archive file types containing the actual rom, others do not and require the raw, uncompressed file type such as .bin, .rom, .d64, etc.

      Like @sleve_mcdichael points out, you'll want to visit the docs page for each individual system to see what file types that emulator supports.
