Skip to 0:52 to get to the instructions, if you're in a rush. TLDR down below!

A short-ish video guide on how to get RetroPie running on your Raspberry Pi. Hope this helps, and feel free to comment or contact if you're still confused.

To sum it up:
1. Install the RetroPie image to your MicroSD, slap it into your Raspberry Pi (RPi), and complete the initial on screen setup
2.Take a blank USB drive, create a folder called RetroPie. Shut down your RPi, plug the USB drive into it, and boot the RPi back up.
3. Once into the RetroPie main menu, shut down the RPi, remove the USB drive.
4. On your computer (NOT the RPi), plug in the usb drive. Go to the retroPie folde,r where you'll see several new photos. Go into the "roms" folder, where you'll see a ton of folders, each named after a console/platform. Stick the appropiate roms in the right folder. I.E., SNES roms go into the SNES folder, Genesis/Mega Drive into the "medgadrive" folder, etc.
5. Stick the USB Drive back into your RPi, and boot it up. If all is successful, you'll see several console logos. Use the D-Pad on your gamepad to select the preferred console, and select it. You'll see a list of your ROMs. Select your game, and enjoy!
5.5 - Connect to the internet via wifi (for which you'll need to keyboard attached), or plug in an ethernet cable. That way, you can download boxart and info for your games!
