      Please can someone help me? The roms’ do not show up on RetroPie and no sign of the emulators’ to that effect.

          Thank you for replying rbaker,

          I was trying to mainly use the SNES and MAME emulators.

          Also the roms for snes that i used are "killer instinct" and "super mario karts".
          I installed "gorf" and "galaxians" on mame

            I was trying to mainly use the SNES and MAME emulators.

            What Emulators? There are 6 SNES emulators and 6 MAME emulators.

            Also the roms for snes that i used are "killer instinct" and "super mario karts".

            What are the file extensions on these files? Where have you placed them?
            in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/snes?

            I installed "gorf" and "galaxians" on mame

            This is a bad post. It shows that you haven't really read up about mame at all. Mame is a beast not to be messed with. Mame will hurt you if you don't look after it and treat it well. It can affect you psychologically. Do a quick search on here and you'll see the pain that others have suffered at the hands of this behemoth. They all tried to tame it without following guidance. Don't worry though, this is the guide to tame the beast:
            https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/2859/how-to-use-mame-with-retropie-help-guide.

            When you have read it, read this:
            https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Managing-ROMs

            The revisit this before posting further questions:
