that depends on which raspberry pi you are using....


0/1 is for the pi zero or pi 1

2/3 is for pi 2 or pi3


but if your using a pi zero.... wermy has a pre-setup img that might be better for you....

i think its best you stick to wermy pre-setup img..... if you bought the kit from Helder its the best its way to go....

read up on

wermy guide...

the Wiki page....

and look at the build that others have done....always some good tips there....



this is a fairly easy project (thanks to Wermy & Helder).... but if you go in blind.... you could end up messing up the kit or the pi zero

wermy did all of the hard work for you and created a modified version of RetroPie exclusively for the mintyPi. It doesn't make a difference if you use the standard Pi0 or the Pi0W, it will work regardless. VerteranGamer gave you all the information you need in links in his earlier comments.
