Brilliant video. There are a huge number of assumptions made by guys who obviously know their stuff, the assumptions being that everyone else knows all the tech stuff :-) To literally go through every step of the process, explaining everything as you go, is a rarity. This was a whole new experience for me, and this video helped make it a lot less painful.
You are helping me realize my childhood dream of having a Arcade in my house with all my favorite games! I'm about to buy this and watch this and then cry like the Manchild I am when its done! 😭
People have already commented but I will because I gotta. Great video. Informative. BUT! Confusing regarding setting up Raspbian on one sd card and then setting up Retropie on another. I'm sure someone is going to take that sd card with Raspbian (Raspberry OS) and flash Retropie over it thinking they're getting both on one card. For just setting up Retropie you DO NOT need to flash Raspberry OS on your sd card first. Also, if you want a pre-made Retropie image from Arcade Punks you only need that image download to flash (etch) to your card. Retropie is already included with many of those very polished and well designed images.
Thank you for this comment. I was wondering that too. It didn't really make sense to have Pi OS and Retro, at least in my case since they are both their own OS. Also I was confused as to why he wanted a separate SD card to transfer roms. Couldn't you just pop the micro SD into your PC and install them that way?
So can you clear it up for me. My unit came with a 32gb card that already had Respberry Pi OS on it. When I download Retropie I wasnt to use a different sd card? And what size should that care be? And than do I need a completely different sd card for any games I want to download?
Man, I can not thank you enough... Finally a way to play my games without sitting on my computer. I'ma take them to the big screen on the TV room. Thanks dude.
You rock, dude. Thank you for this super detailed build video. Helped me hop back into the retro gaming that I did as a kid. Now I can share it with MY kids! Keep kicking butt, sir.
Oh god THANK YOU. I got a Super Console X and really like it, but it's limiting and I keep thinking, "I can build a better system." Your video is straightforward and comprehensive. I totally wanna build one now.
Just wanted to say thanks so much for putting this great video out. I've been wanting to get some kind of retrogaming console together for a while, but didn't really know where to start... I thought about getting one of the miniconsoles and hacking it, or buying an old PC and using that, but when I saw this video I was hooked. Super informative, entertaining and thorough. And now I'm getting very little sleep because I'm playing through Final Fantasy III again. Thanks a million!
Awesome brother , I am glad you are getting enjoyment from it . I have been on a huge retro gaming kick here recently, collecting old consoles and working on some really cool builds for the channel
I’ve been looking for someone to make the perfect video for just the right amount of info like you did for forever bro. Thanks a lot. Appreciate it! Ready to finally start my build.
Great video, one thing worth mentioning, you don't need to go through any of that Raspbian setup if you're just gonna nuke the sd card and install retropie on it, you can save yourself some time that way
Finding channels like this with GREAT qualify but low subscribers is so exciting. You have earned a sub and I'm excited to join you on your journey to 1 Mil. :)
thanks for this guide. i was intimidated to install retropie since it looks so complicated. I followed your guide and others and now i am running retropie with games from gameboy to dreamcast and psp!
The one thing im not 100% on is the other part with arcadepunks. So what I download from arcadepunks is a replacement for retropie but with games already installed and everything set up?
That case with RGB heat sink is sick AF. The link in description links to a different setup, I'm so jealous I want that case. Great video, nicely done.
I still use my pi3b+ with my retropie 256gb card that I fully finished in 2019 using the retroflag case. Still works great. Love playing TurboGrafx games using the TurboGrafx controller that came with the mini
FYI, Raspberry Pi Foundation officially changed the name of Raspbian to Raspberry Pi OS when they released the 8GB version of the RPi 4B back in May, 2020. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for this. I’m pretty old for a gamer, and don’t have a lot of technical expertise. I have a Pi 4, but it was baffling to set up, and I haven’t used it very much. I’m looking forward to giving it another try with your guidance! I’ll be subscribing and sharing!
Hope you didn't give up, once it's up and running it makes sense. You can make a copy of retropi now using imager which can be put onto raspbian for free. Hoping for an update saying you figured it out.
This video was awesome! I have been wanting to get into retro gaming but I had no clue where to start. Thanks to you and this video series I do now. This is going to be a fun and challenging project. I’m subscribing!!!
I just wanted to point something out. 🙂 Cartridge based games are referred to as roms. (ROM = read only memory) Optical disc based games CDs DVDs, Blu rays, as commonly referred to as ISOs, not roms a ISO is a optical piece of media IE not a cartridge. Have a good day 🙂 Also the video is very helpful and well thought out.
Great video, really insightful. Thinking of setting up raspberry pi myself for the 1st time, this will be great to follow set up step by step. Great job 👏🏼
Might be $300 still, but even though its still that high, you get every gaming sysytem known to man and just about every game. While with the Switch you only get Nintendo games, oh and if you want to pay for the subscription, you could get the older nintendo consoles and the sega console. So in the long run the Pi is by far the better way to go.
The raspberry pi 4 kit link to Amazon says that is not available and there's no timeline on when it will be available again. Is there another option that you would recommend?
First time ive found your channel, I dont need al lthe detail as Im a little more experience but think its awesome that you cater for all levels of experience so well (so many people are bad at this!) Loved the vid and looking forward to watching more of you! New subscriber for sure
From what I've heard, the RAM size doesn't really matter, PS1 games run fantastically (even in HD depending on the title), but if you want to emulate N64, you're better off using Batocera instead of Retropie. I'm saying this because when I tried N64 on Retropie, even with an overclocked Pi, I couldn't even get Super Mario 64 running properly at 480p, sometimes I couldn't even make it to the castle door after loading a save because the emulator kept crashing. But on Batocera, N64 is a lot better, like Super Mario 64 can run at full speed at 1080p with minimal to no overclocking needed, and plenty of other games work just as well on Batocera better than on Retropie (for some titles, you may need to lower the resolution to get it to run at full speed, but lowering it to 720p should still be good enough). And if your controller supports rumble, like the 8bitdo SN30 Pro I'm using, it even emulates the rumble pak well! I'm not kidding, assuming you got your N64 roms legally, I urge you to give it a try.
you said to check if the ram is D9 and you were right they sent me the D8 ram and now they are sending the D9 ram. an oversight I would have never caught if you didn't remind me to look the MB over. Thank you very much!
Are you not able to use the micro SD with the reader and put games on it that way? Why do you need a separate flash drive if they can be stored on the micro SD card?
What is the OS needed to download to follow this step by step guide. I bought the same setup but my sim card did not have any preinstalled OS to follow this build. Confused and stuck. Some help on what I need would be very helpful!
have watched this video many times and confused about images. What are they exactly? you said they come pre loaded with games? Do I need to even download one? I really hope you see this thanks
Awesome video!!! Thank you. I bought a pi zero 2 W and am building an arcade shell. After that, I’m going to buy a pi 4 and set up the N64 and PS games shown here. Can’t wait until these projects are done :D!
So, I'm very new to this whole Raspberry Pi & RetroPie thing. I am not very knowledgeable about it at all. Recently, I purchased the LABISTS Raspberry Pi 4 4GB Complete Starter PRO Kit with 32GB Micro SD Card (4GB RAM). I was finally able to get it set up and I was able to play a few games on it last night (5/26/21). The main reason why I decided to go with a Raspberry Pi was because I'm a child of the 80s and 90s. I wanted to have a system that let me play retro video games such as arcade games and console games (Genesis & SNES) from that time period. The problem I've run into now is that some of the roms work fine and others don't. I can't figure out why this is happening. I have heard that arcade roms use MAME, etc . . . Some of the arcade and 16-bit console roms are working, but other ones are not. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix this latest issue that I'm facing? Thanks.
I’m about to lose my mind. I’ve made an arcade with 4 players with the same retropi 8 gb. My problem is…..if I hook up for than two sets of arcade buttons to the pi then it won’t boot up. How can I power the buttons with using the pi or do I have too? If I have too then what should I do?
My question is how do you get retro pie on the raspberry pie so all you have to do is plug in the micro sd card with a arcade punks game image on it and go. There's only one micro sd card slot so how when the retro pie image needs to be plugged via micro usb slot?
Noob question, please forgive my ignorance... If I'm starting from scratch and flash an image from Arcade punks onto a freshly formatted SD would I still need to go through the process with the USB stick for the ROMs, or would those already be installed on the SD via the image?
Thank you so much for the in-depth tutorial, watching this made me want to build one myself. After ordering in January I received my pi4 kit over the weekend and I'm looking forward to building this. Towards the end of this video you mentioned making a playlist of other retropie builds, would you be able to link those in the description or let me know where I could find them? I would really appreciate it!
I purchased LABISTS Raspberry Pi 4 4GB Complete Starter PRO Kit with 32GB Micro SD Card (4GB RAM). I'd like to add only old school SNES, Genesis, and arcade games (from the 80s and 90s). How do i do that? Is it hard? I heard arcade roms need to be done with MAME. What's the best way to accomplish all this?
Need some help. What could be the reason folders were not created after inserting usb drive? Have tried multiple times, still wouldn't do it. Am I supposed to plug it in while retropie is running? Or while it's turned off and boot up? Thanks in advance.
Kind of confused. Bought a new 512 gb microSD. Looking to download a image for Recal box from arcade punks. Can I download that torrent direct to the SDcard? Never putting it on my computer or a usb flash drive and unpacking it and all that while it’s on the card itself and then just inserting the card into the raspberry pi and being ready to play that image?
The operating system is stored on a MicroSD card. The reason two are used in this video is that the first came pre-loaded with Raspian, which is a common operating system used on Raspberry Pi builds. It’s kind of like what you’d use on a typical desktop computer. The other MicroSD card had the RetroPie operating system. You don’t need both if don’t want one of them
@@blaine6000 he is using a flash drive to transfer his files from ArcadePunks to his RP and the files load onto the micro SD card. Could you load the uncompressed torrent files onto the micro SD card that contains Retro Pie (both on the same micro SD Card) or is the flash drive needed?
@@r.zaneprice4812 Not sure about that. Give your method a try and if it works, great! But when in doubt I’d just follow the steps in the video since you know it works.
I would recommend two microsd cards that are the exact same model. I also would reccomend making an image of ur microsd card using windisk32 or applepibaker as a backup, in case yours gets corrupted.
Confused a bit. You say don't buy a pre-imaged card because they are stealing by not paying for the game, but then encourage us to steal from them instead or to buy the kit the kit that comes with said card?
Brilliant video. There are a huge number of assumptions made by guys who obviously know their stuff, the assumptions being that everyone else knows all the tech stuff :-) To literally go through every step of the process, explaining everything as you go, is a rarity. This was a whole new experience for me, and this video helped make it a lot less painful.
Well said.
☝️👍
Ditto. Yes most people who do these videos talk about SD flashing with etcher. But if you haven’t done that before. Mistakes can be made
So just so ive got it correct. Use a torrent file to download, use 7zip to unzip/compress then use etcher to put on my usb/sd?

You are helping me realize my childhood dream of having a Arcade in my house with all my favorite games! I'm about to buy this and watch this and then cry like the Manchild I am when its done! 😭

Hey bro hows it going

Don't buy the 8gb model if your only using it for retro gaming. You won't need more than 4gb, some games will go over 2gb but none will go over 4gb.

You have a point in game, but as far as scrolling and browsing. More ram, the better

Im so confused, Did you use the same micro SD card you set up at 14:45 for the OS as for setting up the retropie at 17:41? Or was it a different one?
i need to know this too, and if he didnt, can i just use the same sd card?

Why do we need to install raspberry os if we're removing the sd card and putting in another one?

Can you advise for a new pi user if I should use retropi, bato, lakka, or recalbox? Is any of them truly better then the other?
I wish I could buy a Raspberry Pi 4, its been sold out for a while
Would the 2gb RAM model also be good for PS1 and N64 games such as Crash Bandicoot and Super Mario 64?

ngl im going to think about buying a raspberry Pi but can i connect my elgato to the raspberry so i can record footage ?
