and have issues with the power button not turning off the power?

I had to reinstall RETROPIE then the script to get mine to work correctly.... think I screwed with to many files 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

Thankfully the script works the way it's supposed to. The fan doesn't turn off with the pi. That's the next challenge for me. Sounds like it's a hardware thing, but solvable.

you may run into undervolage issues. but thats easy enough to fix with an overvolt line in the .cfg file and if your using fans making sure they are on the 3v pin and you should be golden

Yes. And no.

I've got one - you need to install a safe shutdown script. It's dead easy - just Google it and you'll be sorted. If you've done that and it doesn't work... I'm out of ideas!
ah, yes! thanks. I thought I did but maybe I didn't. Whats weird is it was working fine the first handful of times I used it. I will check into that again, and if that's not it I will whine about again on reddit. Thanks for helping out.

if anyone cared to know this as well.
Also, in case you weren’t aware, there’s a little switch inside that has to be switched to ‘ON’ after you run the script.

this was also helpful to watch as well, in case anyone in the future had the same question as I did.
No worries. One thing to watch out for is that sometimes mine takes a few seconds after exiting the game to kick in the script and shutdown the pi. Might be worth giving it a little more time if it seems sluggish. Good luck!
