      I get everything eles, I just connect my USB drive to my raspberry pie and startup retropie and let retropie stall the folders I get that.
      I unzipped the compressed games and they were A24-NES and more, so i would have to dragged them to the right folder that retropie had created on the USB drive. For the BIN files on I un zipped the games and got BIN file, where do they go

        In the RetroPie docs in the Emulators section, you will find where you have to put the roms and the supported extentions of them. https://retropie.org.uk/docs/

        As for the NES roms, if i am not wrong, i don't think they have bin files inside.

            All my nes roms they have .nes extention when i unzipped them. Maybe you have to find another source for the files.

                I don't know because a lot systems have roms with .bin files. You can search by game name, but it is not the best way. Better find a better source for the roms that have already orginize them into per system folders.

                  No. No, no, no...just...no.

                  I don't know if there is a language barrier here or if what else is going on, but you are doing this so, so very, very wrong that it is hard to even know where to start correcting you.

                  I'm not even convinced you have any console roms at all. The one thing you actually posted, was a disc-image for a Windows game.

                  See previous answers here(1).

                  ...and here(2).
