So do not get your hopes too high, but, this means that the Retropie is one step closer to an official release and we can all look forward to an official version being released in the near future hopefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can&#8217;t wait to use to Retropie, you can try manually installing it with our guide which has worked for thousands of users on how to <a
