I subbed, dude you made this guide so easy. I’m setting one up for my friend and never messed around with it before and this made it so fast and easy.
SFTP password is "raspberry" in case someone (like me) didn't understand.
That’s exactly what happened to me I spend at least 30 minutes trying to figure it out
Really?
thanks a lot bro nearly gave up xD
Also don't be a dumbass like me, input your IP address not the one he inputs
Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼😂

Hey FileZilla doesn’t work for me, what should I do? (Btw I’m using a pi 3)
I'd recommend the Flirc case, that's what I use. It's an aluminum case that is also the heat sink. You cannot over-heat a pi with it (I've tried!), and it's an attractive little box. No fan, absolutely silent.
AWESOME VIDEO! It works perfectly fine! Thanks a lot!
Great tutorial. Thanks so much.
Great video. Keep it up!
Thumbs up for spreading word for Retropie and Raspberry Pi in general. :)
Still there are some statements that are not true, some things where I would disagree and some information missing.
- Raspberry Pi 4 with Retropie is not capable of emulating PS2 or Gamecube. With Raspberry Pi 4 using other operating systems, there is the possibility to run some games. But extremely buggy and underperforming, so not in any way that is really playable. And as I said, not with Retropie.
- Performance wise Pi 3 and Pi 4 only really differ when it comes to N64, Dreamcast, PSP, Saturn and some Arcade games that are in the same league as Dreamcast. Since there is a real shortage of Raspberry Pi devices with insane reseller prices, one should consider buying the older Pi 3.
- I think you should have mentioned the prices. Retropie became popular because it was a low cost and low power method of getting an all-in-one emulation device. With the currently extreme prices, one should think twice of getting a Raspberry Pi just for emulation at all. You can get Android boxes with a similar and slightly better performance for a much better price. For a Pi 4 with all accessories (not including the gamepad since you need this with other solutions as well) you can get an X86 or an Android device with much better performance. So as long as the prices are this high, Raspberry Pi probably isn't worth your money when you just want to get it as an emulation device.
-For someone that is so new to Raspberry that he requires this tutorial for setting it up, I would heavily recommend using Recalbox instead of Retropie. The advantage of Retropie is having more frequent core updates and including other stuff much earlier, often when still in experimental phase. But therefore it's much more tedious to set up and results in things like hiccups with Bluetooth gamepads that are pretty hard to fix for beginners. Fixing up hiccups and unexpected problems generally occurs more frequently and is harder to fix with Retropie, since it focuses on having the most features and being the most up to date. Whereas, Recalbox has a focus on being reliable and easier to set up. With Recalbox you don't need FTP to copy games. Just insert the microSD in your PC. Setting up resolution, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth etc. is also much easier. Everything works within Emulationstation settings, you don't need the bluescreen config menu that often is overwhelming for beginners.
-You forgot to mention that some platforms require BIOS files. Even though you showed PS1 games running, you didn't mention that you need PS1 BIOS files in order to play PS1 games.
Just noting If you want to play ps2/dreamcast/og Xbox, a overclocked 8g ras pi 5 is the only option if you want to use a ras pi
That is not true. I played PS1 games and GameCube games without needing any kind of BIOS except the ROMs themselves.
I like the Raspberry Pi 4B 8GB in the Vilros keyboard/touchpad hub but I am very interested in the Orange Pi 800 keyboard computer over at Ali-Express as well.
Hi, great video!! My question how to install the Fan and Display from case in retropie or is it automatically?
Great content!
So the bios is all on sample?
Is there a way to add more fbs or mame bios files to.improve Rom Compatability.
just got some games and setup the retro pi with almost no effort thanks for this
Thank you
great video is there any addons for emulation station where it can get a rom of your choice download and install it straight to the pi????
Would you recommend overclocking the pi 4 if you have proper cooling because o heard it helps with dreamcast games
I use the Argon One case for my Pi4. Its a bit pricey but well worth it. no heat issues whatsoever.
thank you
I use my Raspberry Pi 4B for Nintendo GameCube games from my childhood 💪😎
Did you ever make that video on getting Retropie installed on an x86 system? I have an old gaming laptop im trying to convert and have been struggling. Thanks!
I see this is your childhood, but I as a pc dude I was absolutely astonished having an OS controlled only by controller. And this carousell menu thing, wow :D
How do u get the fan and rgb to work or does it come on automatically? need help please
I got the boot up screen and I log in but then it gives me a prompt with a blue $ where do I go from there?
I'm having issues where I keep getting controller not configured message. I have configured the controller as soon as retorpie was up and works within Emulation station, but it only doesnt work when I launch games, any ideas how to fix this ?
When I add the game, it only shows up if I upload the zip file and when I try to play it, it just loads for a few seconds and goes back to the games screen.
How did you set up the oled for the retropie. I'm so lost lol
Awesome tutorial but can you explain me how do i find the games
Great tutorial, thank you so much for the insight! Cheers!
I have an older Pi and I mainly got it for Mario Kart 64 and Super Smash Bros. It lags terribly and doesn't run smooth at all. If I get the newest version can it handle N64 games with no problem?
I’m probably just dump but when you are loading the ROMS I can connect the raspberry pi and everything but I can’t find where the games are, or do I have to download them and if so download where
I did similar thing with Jetson Nano
Hey I just bought my raspberry pi 5. I’ve been lost on how to use it for game emulation for weeks now. I saw when you’re preparing the imager that you were able to select the retropie when you’re installing the os. I’m installing for Mac. I don’t see the game emulator option. What do I do? Please help.
Where do I download Roms? I know Vimm Lair for most but can’t find the older machines
Prefer to use a USB stick to add roms. Either a phone with a OTG dongle adaptor and my USB stick, or my stick on the Mac. Its great because you can slowly add a few roms of your choice, without choking down the Pi. As you add roms, the emulators appear one by one instead of millions of machines in your system.You can be more selective over the content of your pi. I hate them consoles with thousands of games you'll never use.
Here’s the steps to doing it with a USB Drive:
1. Plug USB drive into PC and make a singular folder titled retropie (no spaces no misspellings)
2. Plug into raspberry pi and wait a few minutes/until light stops flashing on drive
3. Plug back into PC, if it’s finished it should display 3 folders inside the retropie folder
4. Go into roms folder, click on the folder that matches system, drag and drop inside folder and your done!
I've got a dual-boot Retropie and Raspberry Pi OS setup at the moment, which is pretty convenient for adding files while in Pi OS mode.
Now I can enjoy my Retropie games, thanks to you.
I have cartridge games but how do I get the roms from them to my usb?
Is it possible to setup retropie in docker on synology nas?
Will a Raspberry Pi play Raid Shadow Legends? (Not Sponsored)
I've had my Chromebook for roughly 6 month and Raid is a about
all it will play.
just booted up my rapsberry pi 3 for the first time. I've had it for like 3 years but it's so fustrating. it keeps freezing, nothing will load and I can't find any decent guides to do something cool with it. about ready to throw it at the wall.
if RetroPie is too overkill for your small ROM collection, I'd wholeheartedly recommend trying Lakka, the OS from the Libretro people, it's basically RetroArch by itself, and runs really well!
can no more find the lakka installation img for rpi 4 arm from the website.
@@needlethread4715 use recalbox
Can we use Xbox 360 controller for play?
I keep getting an error saying, error loading SDL screen and I don’t know how the fix it
Does the FTP site still work? just trying an am unable to connect
Have unraid with some arr apps, is there anything similar for ROMs
Crash bandicoot was the first game I really got into
Do you have the link to the actual white Pi case with the fan? I don't see that in the video notes.
I can't find the exact case by itself because I purchased it in a starter kit. The first link is going to be the kit and the second link is going to be a similar case from a different company.

Hello, I set one of these up and it works fine at first but whenever I exit a game the screen fades to black and stays that way. It doesn't go back to the menu and i have to restart the machine. This has been an infuriating process, i've tried everything. Ive tried 3 different raspberry pis, many different sd cards, different monitors, different power supplys, I'm at a loss for words. Is there anyone that can help me? I've found a few threads online where people had the same problem but no solutions. I'm running a pi3. This is supposed to be a christmas present for my nephew. Please help.
Hey, thanks for the vid, good job. I tried to set up my newly bought pi and sd with the raspberry pi imager. When I plug it to power and screen, There is the green light when the pi reads the sd, but no boot window is shown on screen. Basically nothing happens. Do you have any idea? Thanks in advance.
Have you found the solution? I have the same exact problem
Can you run custom fanmade gba roms?
I got retro pie on the sd card. Black screen. Reinstalled like 50 times, nothing works lol
@TechHut you know that we can get the password even from a blurred image right ? There are ways , they do not take a lot of time. Please keep this in mind when blurring on screen text.
I have a whole video on it :) The blurring I used is dramatic enough.
@@TechHut thank you for the answer :) good to hear it. Your videos are great , love your content
mine broke while off. red light on. if i loose my progress this thing gets the hammer.
No signal going to sleep any idea ?
Idk why but I cant open then etcher file. Pls help
this single handedly beat ouya to a pulp
Dude... I had never heard of Filezilla!
I'd recommend batocera instead. And avoid using mame for 3d games and just using the console versions of those 3d games. For some reason mame has this problem with retropie as well.
I’ve tried this about 10 times, transferred roms via usb and over network and still no games. It also renamed all my settings icons to Japanese game titles. I give up
I keep getting stuck on a screen that Keeps saying undervoltage detected what do I do?
You need a better power adapter
I use Berryboot Retro Pi and Berryboot Lakka. I like the option of different Operating systems.
now, make on for pi5
I can't get filezilla to connect to my pi
Never mind. I had it in the SNES folder instead of the NES folder
"Were you can play all your old games"
Did younjust call me old 😭
My understanding is that downloading roms is not illegal. Distributing them is illegal
Is there a baseline Raspberry Pi that you would recommend for RetroPie? A friend of mine has one of these and although it was able to run older games fine (NES, SNES, GBA, Genesis), when it came to N64 or PS1 games it really struggled.
I have a Raspberry Pi 3b+ and it handles everything from PlayStation 1 and below. It struggles a little with N64. Not sure if it should but maybe that should give you a little idea of what you’re looking at.
I recommend overclocking it. Just make sure you have good cooling and a strong enough power supply.
I don't know if it stell helps:
Raspberry Pi 3B or Raspberry Pi 3B+ is great for anything Up to PS1. Meaning SNES, GBA, PS1, Some arcade games that are equally demanding. It struggles with N64, Dreamcast and PSP. For that you should overclock and then you still will only get a satisfiable result for some games.
Pi 4 especially with overclocking performs much better with Dreamcast, N64 and PSP. I believe even some SEGA Saturn is playable (even though it's an older plattform than SEGA Dreamcast it's harder to emulate because it's a very complicated hardware to emulate).
Neither is capable of Xbox, PS2 and Gamecube. So choosing between Pi 4 or Pi 3 depends on how much you want N64, PSP or Dreamcast.
Since there is a shortage of Raspberry Pi devices, you should compare prices and even consider buying an Android box instead. At the moment, you will get the same performance as the Pi 4 for a much better price. When Pi 4 is back in stock for the normal price, I would probably consider buying a Pi 4. Just get the 2GB modell since 4GB or 8GB won't matter when it comes to emulation.
Isn‘t it illegal to get those roms?
Nobody is forcing you to do this.
If you already have some ps1 games you can rip or own files and don’t share it with anybody. Some emulators can play off your own games without downloading or ripping anything. Only if you have the physical copy of the game.
Maybe he owned (purchased) those games a long time ago with their console, and now he ripped them (from CDs and cartridges) into files so he can play them again.
He does have legal copies, because he only installed a handful, and recalled how he bought and liked them when starting out with gaming.
hmmm /Volume/
looks like you using macos
Yeah I have an M1 Air and a ASUS ROG running Fedora. :D
I never Ctrl O to save. I always just Ctrl x then y to save
I do "Ctrl + S" to save then "Ctrl + X" to exit.
@@themedleb if you do ctrl+x first it'll just ask if you want to save
@@itsme7570 I know, it's just easier for me since S and X are closer to each other.
Filezilla and pay every year? No thanks but thanks for the tutorial!
FileZilla is free
Roms are a material issue for those just starting out with this.
Hey, can you explain this comment a bit? What do you mean by that?
@@saab_9 He probably reffered to choosing which roms u need, as there are thousands of games on each console and it is pain in ass to find good games.
@@AyushSingh-js3rf coin-ops next 2 is awesome.... I have like 100GB of games
Some roms are broken or corrupt. Sometimes you find out half way through a game (like crono trigger). I suspect it's anti pirating, but yeah it happens
Did this guy just refer to CRT TVs as "ungodly heavy ones" because he did not know what they are called?! Am I this old? I'm only 43 FFS, I'm not ready to embrace death of old age!
I think he did say “crt” in midst of all that
you should avoid reproduction controllers, get the original controllers and buy an adapter
I'm not knocking you, I appreciate you are trying to help ... but this tut is _extremely_ basic.
Thankfully, it's a basic process.
@@TechHut Hmmm. If you say so.
@@TechHut Are you new to pi/retropie?
that’s the point lmao. hes helping newbies
@@character42 This doesn't help anyone. This level one info is everywhere. Had he of (at least) included something that was required, and yet not so easily found ... _THEN_ he would have been "helping."
Thank you
