Not sure about the resolution but retro pie works pretty good for that.

I have retropie installed.  I dislike it very much.
It seems to be for people who want to use an Xbox360 controller and HDTV.
How do I bypass or hide the retropie menus?

(This would be going in a 6" cabinet with a 2.5" screen.  The retropie menus aren't going to be readable.)

Alright, this is currently cranking, so let's see if it works.

The .img file was copied to an external hard drive to a folder called images.  We'll pretend it was called bigimage.img

I also downloaded and copied pishrink.sh from this link to the same folder:

https://github.com/Drewsif/PiShrink

The hard drive was plugged into a Pi running emulation station.

I exited out to the command prompt...


cd /media/usb0
cd /images

fdisk -l bigimage.img

I looked at the Start field for bigimage.img2 and multiplied that number by 512.  Let's pretend the result was 1234567

Then I said:

mount -v -o offset=1234567 -t ext4 bigimage.img /mnt/img/two

Then cd /mng/img/two

Then I poked around and deleted a few ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- N64 games.

Back out of that to the images folder....

Then:

chmod +x pishrink.sh

sudo bash pishrink.sh bigimage.img smallimage.img




And now we wait.

There are a few images over on the attract mode forum that might work for you.

I use retropie in arcade cabinets. Front end is using Attractmode rather than the default emulation station.

You've asked a number of questions in this post that are off-topic to resizing the partition. Maybe make a new post and I can work on answering in detail.
