      I just installed everything onto my Pi 3....went to check on a PS3 style USB controller I bought from a recycle shop...everything registers....I go back to the Retropie screen...it says 13 games available...but it will not let me scroll left or right....just lets me hit A or start?? what does that mean?

      thanks

        @pc4life0427 it means you haven't got any roms on your system (those 'games' are really just the menu items in retropie menu). see https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Transferring-Roms
