Pico-8 on Retro Pi Rex image

Hi, i’ve got Rex’s RetroPi image running on on uconsole!

SNES/NES Roms work, displayed correctly.

I bought and installed Pico-8 to /home/retro/pico-8/, got it to show up in emulationstation by adding this to the /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg


<system>
    <name>pico8</name>
    <fullname>PICO-8</fullname>
    <path>/home/pi/pico-8</path>
    <extension>.sh .p8 .png .SH .P8 .PNG</extension>
    <command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 "/home/retro/pico-8/pico8_64 %ROM%"</command>
    <platform>pico8</platform>
    <theme>pico8</theme>
  </system>

I can launch Pico-8 but its rotated 90 deg counter clockwise.

How do I get it to be displayed correctly?

I ended up installing the desktop and only running Pico-8 from the desktop. RetroPie is smart enough to add it as a system I can launch.

Had to add rotation to the (new?) way it wanted to launch emulationstation in
/opt/retropie/configs/all/autostart.sh

and rotate and the desktop but it all worked out!
