\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Rene Richarz<\/a> has written a great guide on installing RetroPie on top of pi-topOS on your pi-top or pi-topCEED. He goes through removing part of the pi-topOS and then installing RetroPie, giving all the necessary command line instructions to set-up for the RetroPie instructions, which are on a different site. He even tells you where to go to set-up a pi-topPULSE HAT<\/a>\u00a0as a battery indicator.<\/p>\n

You can read the guide here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you’re looking to buy a pi-top or CEED, you can find them on the pi-top website<\/a>\u00a0or from The Pi Hut<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
