Official hakchi2 - NES Mini very simple pimp tool

BCT182 · Mar 29, 2017

I'm hoping someone can help. Yesterday I loaded the full NES library, a couple SNES, N64 and one Sega ROM. I loaded with 2.14b and retroarch. I have two classic controllers with extension cords. Everything worked except for games that needed the additional controls.

Today, I picked up two Wii Classic controllers.

Before testing the controllers I loaded a few more SNES AND N64 games. When I tried the unit after loading more games I am having trouble with the extension cords.

Controller #1 & #2 no ext cords - ok

Controller #1 w/ext cord & and #2 without ext cord - ok

Controller #1 & #2 both with ext cord - no function for one player (problem follows cord if I swap them)

Controller #1 with both ext cords plugged in series and #2 no ext cord - ok

Any idea why I cannot use an extension cord on both controllers at the same time? If I use two extension cords together in series with one controller it does work, which leads me to believe the cord is not bad.

I did uninstall to revert to stock and then reinstalled everything, and the problem remains.

You should send your debug test result to Cluster. Read his post here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/hakchi2-nes-mini-very-simple-pimp-tool.456256/page-431

Do you know anything about the soldering in the mini Nes, to use this type of cable next to a usb key?

I use extensions on mine. One with 6ft and other with 3 3ft extensions on it. All works. Are your controllers third party or original?

I think it must be firmware 1.05 Beta0 on the Retro Receiver to map the extra buttons, If you have a later firmware it won't work.....

Will try & report later.. That would be a stupid mistake, if that is the key!!

Can you send me those icons you've used for the different systems ? They look so much better than the ones that are there now...

Cluster · Mar 29, 2017

Version 2.15

Not so many changes, just a bunch of critical fixes:

Using internal games packing instead of external "tar" util, it will fix "Can't pack games" error.
RAM memory usage optimizations, hakchi2 should work fine on x86 systems now.
Possible memory leak fix during folder navigation (testing required).
Free flash memory space automatic check and basic memory usage statistics when not enough flash memory available.
clovercon driver creates /dev/clovercon1 and /dev/clovercon2 now, you can read current buttons state from it, it's useful for some scripts.
Translations to German, Greek, Spain, Italian and Polish languages. Write if you want to help with translation.

Also check for new RetroArch mod: https://github.com/ClusterM/retroarch-clover/releases/tag/0.7

The level 1-2 of Batman: Return of the Joker (NES) is not running very well on retroarch (v2.14b). This happens only to me?
