So partake, my friends, in your shared cultural heritage.
Nothing less than our cultural legacy is at stake. (It is also possible to run legally licensed or purchased ROM files, but that is beyond the scope of this article.)ĭigital works are fragile things, and the emulation community has done an incalculable public good by encouraging people to play and preserve classic video games. It is worth setting up an American keyboard layout and setting your time zone, because those will help if you need to make advanced configuration changes in the future.Ĭurrently, it is not legal in the United States to possess and play copies of games you have not bought or have not licensed for play, but I personally believe (speaking on behalf of myself and not this publication) that playing older game ROMS with emulators is ethical when done in moderation. The Pi and RetroPie were developed in the UK, and they use a different keyboard layout there than the U.S. The first is Localisation Options (note UK spelling)-which you’ll want to configure if you don’t live in the UK. You’ll probably want to change a few settings here. It’s a blue screen with text-based menus. If you did what I wrote above, either wired or wireless, you should now be in the Raspberry Pi system settings program. Benj EdwarĬonfigure system-wide settings Benj Edwards/IDG Using your controller, select RASPI-CONFIG and hit the primary selection button on the controller. It’s a convenient way to configure the system without having to drop to a Linux command prompt. It contains a list of shortcuts to set various settings. Once that’s working, you will see a menu called RetroPie. Don’t mess this up, or you may have to unplug the Pi and start the button assignments over again. It will ask you a long list of questions that let you assign which button goes to which control (i.e. Then hold down a button on the gamepad until EmulationStation detects it.

This time, instead of hitting F4, tap a button on your Bluetooth gamepad until it syncs up with the Pi. You will see the screen that says: “WELCOME. After a few moments, EmulationStation will start up again.
To do this, exit the config program and type this into the command prompt: sudo shutdown -r now
Then you can search for it using the Bluetooth utility and sync with it (hit the second option for the DualShock 4 after it syncs).Īfter that, restart your Raspberry Pi. For the NES30, hold down the power button on the front-left of the controller until it turns on. You’ll have to switch the controller into discovery mode-for the DualShock 4, hold down the Share and the PlayStation button at the same time until its light blinks. Using the keyboard, find the Bluetooth option and select it. This is the RetroPie setup program, a blue menu with lots of text options.
