Thanks for the link but I would advice to avoid rom sets such as goodgen, goodnes, goodsnes and search instead for genesis no intro, nes no intro and snes no intro.
the "good" sets have silly amounts of duplicates of all games which makes browsing the games tedious. no intro sets have all the games but not over 9000 versions and romhacks of every game.

I was looking for No Intro rom sets, but these are also with multiple versions. Is there a site where you can find sets with original roms?

I'm sure you guys already know this Website, but emuparadise.me worked great for me to get not only romsets but also specific roms when I used online "top 30" lists for inspiration.

emuparadise proposes lots of ROMs from varied sources wich are often unkown. It's useful to download time to time from emuparadise, but if you wan't good and verified ROMs and ISOs, no-intro and redump are far better and sure.

I'm having trouble getting NeoGeo and SegaCD games to work and I suspect it's the bios files I have. Does anyone know where I can get the bios files that work for these systems?

Go to www.picades.com/ for ROMs that are supposedly all good on RetroPi set ups. They have a zip collection of bios too which just need to be unzipped and copied into your bios folder. I read that someone was having trouble with NeoGeo last nigh, so tried it and it works well. The other advantage with downloading their ROM collections is that many come with box graphics and game descriptions, so if you download their collections and dump them along with the images folder into the relevant folders, you'll have a nicer presentation all around.  |

Cool, thanks for the heads up on that site. Seems like it's down at the moment...could be lots of people grabbing sets I guess? |

So to get the games metadata/images which do I download? Do they provide images for the games by individual game system folders? I like the rom sets. No multiples of one game! Thanks for the suggestions.  upload photos to internet |

It's up again now. It must have just been a blip. I figured it all out. I found that all the images come zipped with the roms. The only path to drop the images that I could access was downloaded_images>game system via network but that wasn't the correct path to get them to show up in emulationstation. So I found the xml file in the folder with the roms, which showed me the correct folder to put them in /home/pi/retropie/roms/snes/images I had to ssh to access the folder drag & drop them & BOOM.. got em all. To ssh Username: pi Pass: pi |
