Ok, there's obviously compatibility issues with a lot of roms and RetroPie which I'm not getting with equivalent PC emulators.
In the end I searched for `RetroPie Rom Set' and almost all roms I tried worked.
Just a few more issues to iron out but really enjoying the Raspiboy!

Trouble with RetroPie
I used to play with various emulators on the PC. It was pretty easy to get set up and didn't require any technical knowledge. By contrast, I'm finding trying to play games on my Raspiboy via RetroPie an up-hill struggle and wondered what I could possibly be doing wrong? Example #1 - GBA I copied gba...

Re: Exiting Mame and FinalBurnAlpha - problem solved
@trantornator - Thanks for posting your solution.
I've been trying to figure out how to do the exact same thing for XRoar (Dragon/Tandy Color Computer emu), another non-libretro emulator.
Will try later.

Re: Mapping Keyboard Keys to RaspiBoy Buttons
Thanks @Vilikt. I'll take a look.
Does your example map the BIB to ESC across all emulators?
I only ask because I want to map the front buttons for XRoar but leave them unchanged for SNES etc.

Re: Install theme after installation
I bought the official RPi WiFi dongle and it works great for copying files over to the RaspiBoy.

Mapping Keyboard Keys to RaspiBoy Buttons

Re: D-Pad Down Direction
Loosening the screws nearest to the rear of the buttons (half a turn) has fixed the problem.
Many thanks for the prompt responses from everyone.
