this isn't a comprehensive guide, it's sort of like getting vague driving directions from someone who doesn't really know the area.
also, at the time that this guide was posted there is still no official retropie build for raspberry pi 4. if you're from the future, you may not want to use the guide.

but the main thing to do is install mednafen and mednaffe
sudo install apt mednafen mednafe
or
sudo install apt-get mednafen mednafe

every guide involving installing things will tell you to update and upgrade first, but i won't i'm not your father or god

when you have it installed, you can see it in the start menu and just play around with it.
i think you'll figure it out, at least partially.

one thing i ran into was if i tried to assign controller keys in the GUI, they wouldn't work in-game, but then i found out in-game you can hit shift+alt+1 to configure keys...
one weird thing in that is they make you enter the same button twice in order to continue to the next thing. also they seem to force you to sign rapid-mode buttons, so if you ran out of buttons on your controller, just put something on your keyboard.

anyway, the fun you will have trying to get this set up, might be more than the actual games, depending on what game you want to play.
