Raspberry pi 3 rainbow screen
elvis:
Either
1) The image you've used is bad
2) The way you imaged the card was wrong (incomplete?)
3) The SD card itself is bad
Work you way through the troubleshooting of each. (Retry writing the image, make sure it completes full and all writing has stopped before you remove the card, and failing that try a new card).
nexusmtz:
I thought the rainbow could be a power problem. Does the image overclock the cpu, and have you tried a different supply?
You said you tried another sd card, but it's not clear if that was the exact same image.
Slippyblade:
A quick Google says your power supply is probably not putting out enough juice. Try a better supply and cord.

Thanks everyone,
It seemed it was an old version of retropie that wasn't compatible with rpi 3, I used retropie 3.8 and it worked.
;D thanks again.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
while the card is in your old RPI will make the install on the SD card work on the RPI3
