Ah you always say some odd things in every post you make, trying to get some kind of attention with these posts? If you looked up what games can be played on the Pi Zero W you will see if those games are playable or not on the Pi Zero W, and then if they are playable you will likely need to do it outside of Retropie.

I catch about 23 Pokemon and my mintyPi gets too heavy...... ok, all jokes aside, I'm not sure what this thread is about but I have about 200 smooth running games on my build. The sad thing is I only put games on that I've played before in the past. Yes A!d3n, I know what you're thinking "What, I thought old guys just played Zelda and Mario." Nope, there are so many classic great games that run well on the mintyPi build. Pick a random SNES game and give it a play. You may find some suck but there are some absolute gems that aren't Mario, Zelda, or Pokemon.

What I gathered from the original post is that A!d3n would like to play more contemporary games, instead of all these old-timey emulated grandpa games.

Sorry to tell you, A!d3n, but while the Raspberry Pi Zero is quite a wonder, it's not very fast, and the chipset runs ARM architecture. The games you'd like to play won't work on this.

And will they support the remakes of Pokémon red and blue(green) or just the original :)

We can't make you a list, but everything before Game Boy Advance it will run smoothly enough.

That's about 16,000 games for a start, though it doesn't include arcade or DOS titles since they're such a mixed bag, nor does it include the various PSX/PSP titles that will run on a Zero. Or Minecraft.
