The first line is to kill a VNC session that I have at bootup. Now that a game rom is in the gba directory and a copy of the gba_bios.bin bios file is in the correct location I went into EmulationStation with ~ $ ~ $ vncserver -kill ~ $ emulationstation ~ $ cd ~ $ sudo cp gba_bios.bin /opt/retropie/emulators/gpsp/raspberrypi If you have the file elsewhere just cd into that directory and then the second line will be the same. If you followed my last post then type in the following to copy the file over.

Once the RaspberryPi is rebooted the GBA bios file has to be moved to the correct directory which is: /opt/retropie/emulators/gpsp/raspberrypi home/pi/RetroPie/BIOSįor information about loading roms or the BIOS file check this post. From a previous post I put “ gba_bios.bin” in the following directory. GameBoy Advance also needs a bios file in order for the games to work. ~ $ sudo rebootįor the GameBoy Advance tab to load in EmulationStation, make sure you have at least one game rom loaded in the GBA directory located at /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/gba

Once that was done I rebooted the system. Hang on! Sometimes this take a while but it is necessary to get things to work and keep everything up to date.

Next, I selected Option 5: UPDATE RetroPie Binaries.

To do that type the following in the terminal: ~ $ cd RetroPie-Setup ~/RetroPie-Setup $ sudo. The first thing you’d want to do is perform a RetroPie Binary Update. If you didn’t see my post about setting up RetroPie then click here to check that out!įrom that post I say that often times when RetroPie is installed it doesn’t seem to load everything it needs for the GPSP emulator. These are the following steps that I did to get it to work for me. Often times people seem to have issues getting the GameBoy Adavnce emulator GPSP to work on RetroPie.
