Retropie - Orange Pi Zero 2w

Hi there!

My first goal was to run Retropie on the Orange Pi zero 2w within Dietpi. Thanks to the community support I am now successfully running Retropie and want to gladly share the success!

Running up to Dreamcast, N64 and PSX with delight!

I have a great Bluetooth 8bitdo modkit collection: PS1, N64, SNES, NES and am happy to get the conversation running.

I do have some minor setbacks, issues and want to share the story here.

The ultimate goal is an arcade “travel” box, but the journey may take as long as it needs

Starting on a positive note.
It works!!!

If I load a N64 game and I exit with esc, the Orange Pi Zero 2w freezes or disconnects from the hdmi, I need to hard reset when this happens. I don’t know how to easily killall without access to the terminal.

Is this an OS issue, or a retropie issue?

NES, Not able to run. Drops back into Retropie menu.

PSX, So far no succes.
Blackscreen when loading game, crash.

N64, still can’t exit the game back to the Retropie menu with hotkey and often crashes.

Dreamcast, not even appearing in menu

Sound works via HDMI, keep having white screen with sound error messages when loading game.
