I have updated this as of 12/27/2023 as a user came across this page and informed me the script I wrote is not long working. I have updated the script to work again.

Log into your steam account, navigate to your profile page and then the “Games” page and Select “All Games”. Open up the console (F12) and run the following bit of code:

The above console script will generate the list same as before.

I wanted to populate a list of all my Steam games for export into a txt file or csv. I came across this bit of code out on the net somewhere and can’t seem to find where I grabbed it from. I did not write this snippet, but i can verify that is does work.

Log into your steam account, navigate to your profile page and then the “Games” page. Open up the console (F12) and run the following bit of code:

var names = document.body.getElementsByClassName('gameListRowItemName');
var namesString = '';
for (var i = 0; i < names.length; i++) namesString += (names[i].innerText + '\n')

You will get a result similar to as follows:

3DMark
3DMark API Overhead feature test
3DMark Cloud Gate benchmark
3DMark Fire Strike benchmark
3DMark Ice Storm benchmark
3DMark Sky Diver benchmark
…

I was recently asked to help someone build a “Retro Gaming System”. While thinking of the best way to do this, I figured that I would like to give them something that they can come back to and do this on their own; at anytime. There are plenty of other tutorials and ways to go about this, but this one is mine. Please leave any feedback through the site should you have any.

Parts List

• Raspberry Pi 3 (Power supply and case are a given)
• Micro SD Card (32GB or 64GB to fit all the roms)
• Controllers
  • NES (dont buy these, just get 4 SNES controllers)
  • SNES
  • N64
  • Sega Genesis

Programs List

Both

• Latest Version of Raspbian

Windows

• Win32DiskImager
• Putty or PuttyTray
• WinSCP

Mac

• Putty

SD Card Configuration

Download the latest version of Raspbian, you can use torrent or HTTP to download this. Torrent will be quicker, but will require another program.

The version at the time of this writing is Jesse. For this setup we will use the LITE version of Jesse as we do not need a Desktop GUI. This will help to save space on the SD Card among other things.

You can find the latest version on Raspberry Pi’s site.

Windows

Extract the zip that we just downloaded.

Install Win32DiskImager utility if you don’t have it installed already. (You can download it on the utility from the Sourceforge Project page)

Insert the SD Card into the PC.

Run Win32DiskImager and select:

• Rapberry pi image we just extracted
• SD Card’s Drive Letter

Select Write!

Safely Eject the USB Drive and remove it from the PC

Insert the SD Card into the Raspberry Pi.

Mac

Extract the zip that we just downloaded.

Insert the SD Card into the PC.

Follow this artcle provided by Raspberry Pi

Raspbian Initial Installation & Configuration

Plug a Keyboard into one of the USB slots, a Monitor/TV into the HDMI slot and an Ethernet Cable into your Raspberry Pi. We will be downloading packages from the internet and using SSH for some of this, so Ethernet is required. (Note: You can use WiFi if you want, but that will not be covered in this tutorial, more info here)

Power on your Pi by plugging the Micro USB Power Cable in.

You will see your Pi boot into a notification that the File System is being resized. This is an automated feature that expands the filesystem to take up your entire SD Card upon the first boot. The server will then reboot.

After the reboot completes, you can now login with the following credentials:

• Username: pi
• Password: raspberry

First things first, lets update that password, you can do so by entering the following:

sudo passwd pi

Here you will enter your new password twice to confirm it has been entered correctly.

Run

sudo raspi-config

Select – 1 – Expand Filesystem, Hit [Enter] and proceed through the steps to get back to the selection screen:

Generate proper locales. (This step is for persons with ANSI/USA Keyboards)

Select – 4 – Localisation Options > I1 – Change Locale > Deselect en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8 and select en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8

Change the keyboard layout

Select – 4 – Localisation Options > I1 – Change Keyboard Layout > Generic 101-Key PC > Other > English (US) > Enter > Enter

Select – 7 – Advanced Options >  A2 – Hostname Enter a new hostname for this Pi:

Select – 7 – Advanced Options >  A3 – Memory Split Change the value to 128 if you have a Pi 3:

Select – 5 – Interfacing Options >  P2 – SSH > Yes Enable SSH so we can access the Pi remotely:

Change anything else you see fit, select Finish and reboot your Pi:

After the reboot completes, log back in at the console one more time,

run

ip a

and get the IP from the Ethernet connection labeled eth0

Remember or write down that IP, then type in

logout

to logout.

Install RetroPie

From your computer, open Putty and enter the IP you got from the last step and click Open

If you receive a certificate warning, ignore it and proceed.

Enter your username and password to login. You will then see a nice blank screen as follows:

Time to update your Pi!

Run

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y

This may take take some time, so feel free to walk away for 5 minutes or so and come back.

Install the prerequisites for RetroPie:

sudo apt-get install -y git dialog lsb-release

Download the latest version RetroPie and begin the installation:

cd
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup.git
cd RetroPie-Setup
chmod +x retropie_setup.sh
sudo ./retropie_setup.sh

After this runs, a GUI portion of this install will begin.

When it comes to the following screen, Select OK. 

Select Basic Install > Yes

This will run through an install, it will take some time.

Once that completes, select Configuration / Tools > 802 – autostart > 1 – Start Emulation Station at boot

 

Install drivers by selecting: Manage Packages > Manage Driver Packages > Install/Update all driver packages from binary

Finally, reboot the Pi!

ROM Installation

Windows

Now it’s time to move ROM’s you own, to the Pi. You don’t own any ROMs? Don’t worry, you’re resourceful and I have a link for you to Follow.

Install WinSCP if it is not installed already.

Run WINSCP.

Connect to your Pi with the IP from earlier and the password you configured as such:

Navigate to RetroPie > roms and you will find a list of all the available systems that you can play.

For this tutorial, we will be dropping roms in:

• megadrive (Sega Genesis)
• n64 (Nintendo 64)
• nes (Nintendo Entertainment System)
• snes (Super Nintendo Entertainment System)

Now you will simply drag and drop your ROMs into the desired destination.

Once all the ROMs have finished moving, reboot your Pi and go back to it.

Mac

(to come at a later date…)

Time to Play!

If you have not rebooted since adding the ROMs, do so now.

sudo reboot

Now that your Pi has been configured and has ROMs on it, you are ready to configure your controller and start playing.

When your Pi reboots, if you set it up to auto-run as described, it should be up and running after the reboot.

 

Controller Configurations are as follows:

Hotkeys and special buttons of Note

Key	Description
SELECT + START	Exit emulator.
SELECT + L1	Load state.
SELECT + R1	Save state.
THUMB LEFT	Enable memory expansion pak.
THUMB RIGHT	Enable rumble expansion pak.

Further RetroPie Configurations

ENJOY!

Raspberry Pi Installation Guide

Step 1: Download DOSBox and install it:

DOSBox Download

Step 2: Download Oregon Trail for Free:

Oregon Trail Download

NOTE: This website has a limit of 2 free games/day

Now unzip Oregon Trail to a location you can remember, I made a folder for it, C:\Old_Games

Step 3: Run Oregon Trail!

Open DOSBox on your system (Windows, Mac, Linux)

type in the following to mount your game folder to DOSBox:

mount C C:\Old_Games

“hit enter”

type in the following to navigate to the newly mounted drive:

 C: #

“hit enter”
now it depends on how you dropped your folder in C:\Old_Games, i renamed mine as follows:

C:\Old_Games\oregondlx

so now I will type in the following to run the game:

.\OREGON~1\OREGON.EXE

If you want to avoid all the steps above and just play the game, simply navigate to the link below you can play the game inside on a webpage. This is useful when you don’t have Administrative rights to a computer.
