I get it's probably easy but does any place sell a raspberry pi to where all the work is basically done?

Did you prefer some specific arcade core? Or each arcade rom is so pick that you just use the one who runs? Or, for example, you try various roms of the same game?
I beat my first game using my Pi (Chrono Trigger) and had a great time with it
I have a question about aspect ratio:
Earlier in the thread someone helpfully pointed out that while most SNES games run in 4:3 some (including Chrono Trigger, Yoshi's Island and SMW) actually run in 8:7, as on a modern TV they look a little stretched when displayed in 4:3
Because of this I switched my SNES emulator to output all games in 8:7, however, is there a list anywhere of which games should be run in which aspect in order to look correct?
Thinking about playing Mega Man X next, but as it's not a game I've played before I'm not sure what the correct ratio will/should be
I'm trying to make my own wireless headset transmitter similiar to my Astro A40 wireless mixamp, as I got it back in 2012 as it's starting to die (I've had to resolder, clean connections etc. To maintain it) and there's no alternative out there... Trying to figure out how, I might go about doing this. I know it's easily possible, as many headsets now have a 2.4ghz band audio input/output via USB adapter that goes to a contained headset unit. But I want to convert that to a 3.5mm 4 pole jack for use with any headphones/headset.
Having an issue with my setup and wonder if anyone can provide advice.
I am running Retro Pie 4.2 on my new Pi3, installed the Drastic package (latest version), I'm able to play DS games fine (except Zelda Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks which is a shame).
With a Dualshock 4 attached I've configured it to have a cursor (a la stylus) fine BUT I can't work out how to manually save (usually Select + Right Shoulder) nor how to exit the game I'm running (Select + Start). The combinations work fine with my other SNES style gamepad controller when playing other ROMS I have, just the issue with the Dualshock 4 which I need for the Drastic DS ROMS.
With any ROM for any emulation I have the Dualshock 4 won't manually save nor exit the game (have to power off the kit). If I try the Pi with my other controller, all the ROMS will allow me to save/exit fine, but I can't use it for the DS games.
Tried all combinations I can think of and none are working for the dualshock, the buttons themselves work correctly which I need for the saving/exiting, cause if I click them individually they do what they are used for (pausing, options etc).
I can't SSH into the Pi to check the config etc and I haven't setup the kit onto the network, just been transferring data/ROMS via a USB stick.
Any help or guidance grateful.
In emulation station, reconfigure your buttons. The HOTKEY button (default SELECT on an SNES style controller) is what you combine to do the shortcuts. (So HOTKEY + X would be retroarch menu, HOTKEY + right shoulder will save).
FBA is pretty much perfect for CPS 1/2/3 and Neo Geo (if you have a Pi3). It also runs a lot of other games. You should build your list with FBA first, then if a game doesn't work, fill in the blanks with the MAME 0.78 (like Mortal Kombat for example).Are there any specific CPS2/NeoGeo emulators or do you have to use MAME?
Dumb question. I'm going to build a pi and notice there may not be an easy way to just turn it on from the couch?
Do you generally just leave it on since I assume it consumes minimal power?

Which of the Genesis cores is the most accurate to the original hardware?
I'm having issues with a few games glitching and I want to see if it is just an emulation accuracy issue. Thanks!
Gen Plus GX
Just ordered a new pi3 and was thinking about turning it into a portable system. Does anyone know of any good pre-built setups(mainly looking for the proper case, input, and power source)?
Tinytendo seems to be popular on ebay/amazon.Any good SNES PAL/ Super Famicom cases out there?
What's the legal standing in the US on abandonware games/games from companies that don't exist anymore and no one owns the license.
All retroarch emulators have a rewind feature. If I remember correctly It's enabled in settings > frame throttle > enable rewindthey also need to include that rewind feature the new snes classic has.
They still have their copyright.

Yes I discovered it after posting, which still relates to my last post, everything is hidden behind obscure menus, the really need to work on Retropie's interface, the look, customization and features should be way more intuitive and require less tinkering.
What game are you having troubles with? Even though the psx emulator runs great, there is like a 5% of games that don't work. Maybe the one you're trying is one of those.So I still can't get to play my Japanese PSX titles and don't know why.
I've checked the log and it seems the BIOS are totally fine, but it looks like there may be a problem with the disc images themselves.
I have been using .bin files that I then manually change their file extension to .img
Should I be using a program to do that instead, or what?

Hey guys, so I got my retropie up and running last night. But I ran into a couple issues and I am not too sure how to fix them.
First is, do I have to reconfigure my controller mappings on my PS4 controller everytime I disconnect my device? I feel like I was configuring the damn controller each time I turned on the system.
I'm looking to build a retropie too.
Am I missing something (maybe a deal)? All prices from Amazon Canada

Seems good?
