So i downloaded retro arch but instead of the blue interface that is shown in every guide i have seen, it has a black, more basic interface, and when i try to download a core, it gives me a list of a few zip or exe files and when i download them it says they are downloaded/extracted but i can't load any cores. Btw i am on the most recent update of manjaro and used snap to download

Thanks for this Chris! I'm 44 and I can't be arsed to play new games these days so i play retro most of the time. I have tons of emulators installed such as Mame, PSPPP, Snes, N64 etc. And it can get a bit chaotic. Going to install this and if it works, I'll be removing other emulators. Cheers! (yes I'm grumpy old fart! Leave me alone)! :D

Just wondering -- been using Retroarch on nearly all Platforms for my Portable Consoles. However -- what about Linux based System like: Bittboy Portable GO, LDK, etc. These Units have built in Emulators, some good some bad. So was thinking about Retroarch... Any thoughts? Thanks a bunch!

I just installed RetroArch on Pop! OS and when I first start up RetroArch I don't get the XMB theme :-( just a cheesy windows 95/98 looking menu. I've looked through everything on their site and they say that the first time you start it up that it should look like the XMB theme. Any ideas?

when you select a game from a playlist to not make you choose for all you 100+ game a core go to settings playlists manage playlist select your playlist at the top you can select default core and now you never need to choose a core for all the games in the playlist

I like retro pie for Linux, it has some great themes and all games work great for me. There is a setup for hyperpie that is basically hyperspin that runs along side it but I cannot find a Linux setup guide anywhere.

Are there any better alternatives to retroarch or a commandline tool at least?
This gui is horrible. Impossible to find settings and navigate and the colors (moving blue background on light blue) hurt my eyes.

Whenever i go to the online core downloader, it comes up with -no entries to display-. Does anyone know how to fix this as ive looked all over the internet and cannot find ANY GUIDES for linux.

The problem for me is that when I download Retroarch via Synaptic, it has to option to download/update cores. Just update databases among other things. Then again, that version is 1.7.3
