Official hakchi2 - NES Mini very simple pimp tool

[DDJM]

Thank you @Cluster, awesome work!! Just one question, why no Atari Lynx core in retroarch-clover?

 

[mrjamma]

Is there a solution for playing "Illusion of Gaia, Illusion of Time, Super Street Fighter 2 and Terranigma" without Retroarch?

Without retroarch only jap ssf2 rom works.

That being said no one has tried converting the english PAL version of the rom to ntsc yet... http://en.evilgames.eu/snes-pal-to-ntsc.html

You went step by step in the guide? And installed all drivers and flashed the custom kernel?

Yup, unistalled Hakchi 2.
Reinstalled it. It seemed to still have the drivers installed from the first time I made a stock dump of the FW.
Reflashed the custom FW to the mini. Just seems to go into what I think is a 13s reboot cycle. Only the flashing in Hakchi works, nothing else.

The problem started after I started to make a file system back up via FTP. Got to one folder then it started, to go into this weird reboot cycle.

All very strange.

@KMFDManic great video mate. Any way to put the extra games in the same row as the originals in the scroll list i.e. no 'extra games' folder?

Simply cut and paste them into the main section Outside the folders and Unsorted.

for NES and GBA is the "--retroarch" not needed.
the system found it itself

--retroarch is only needed for some instances of nes, as it calls to the fceumm emulator, and the 2010 9x, of which I will update within my set...to handle the argument.

It's have to be a third party controller or one of the wii classic controllers.

Thanks, Wii Classic controller worked perfect, pressing even the "home" button brings you nice back to the Snes Mini game select screen

Diddy Kong Racing and Snowboard Kids perfect playable, GoldenEye, is really messy with the controls, but playable once you get used to it

You'll work to include snes mini borders in retroarch or is it difficult ? Thanks. Rgs.

Hopefully you didn't mess something up while you were poking around in FTP :/

I have the VC downloaded for ssf2. I'll try it when I get near a computer.

Well you're most likely gonna have to extract the wad or .app file into the rom format or sfrom

Check your retroarch settings for the reset button command.

I think there is a rewind feature in the retroarch settings. I've seen pictures of gb and nes games with borders, it just needs to be implemented for everyone.

You went step by step in the guide? And installed all drivers and flashed the custom kernel?

You can turn off the user game play demo and leave the gameplay demo on.

 

[choochoonesme]

Sorry guys newb question, how do I back up the kernel? Just plug in the snes and copy and paste it into the computer?

I guess theres no way to reset the file system then?

So gameplay demo works this time for added games? In NES Mini didn't work.

Seemed to work fine for me when I was playing Secret of Evermore

 

[svenmaier789]

So, if i add retroarch, i only have to add --retroarch to specific games. They then get launched by retroarchy, all other games by canoe?

 

[SeltzerMist]

do save states take up a lot of memory or something? I suddenly went from 245.2 MB to 241.0 MB available simply from hooking the console back up to change some cover art...

Yes.

Kernel, Dump Kernel. Directly from Hackchi menu. Then zip it up and email it to yourself for safety!

 

[cokeaddict]

anyone here got the genesis games working with retroarch? i can do nes, snes, gba with no problem but genesis games wont load

They work fine for me

 

[KMFDManic]

did you got the genesis games working? nes snes and gba work fine but cant get to work genesis games on retroarch

Got everything working. Copy your command line for a Genesis Game.

Yes.

This does not work for me. Here are my command line arguments that I've tried.

First attempt: /bin/clover-canoe-shvc-wr -rom /usr/share/games/CLV-U-LZZZU/Home_Alone_(USA).sfrom.7z --volume 100 -rollback-snapshot-period 600 --retroarch
Result: Immediate C7 error

Second attempt: /bin/clover-canoe-shvc-wr -rom /usr/share/games/CLV-U-LZZZU/Home_Alone_(USA).sfrom.7z --volume 100 -rollback-snapshot-period 600 --retroarch --core snes
Result: Immediate C7 error

The only thing that even seems to remotely work is KMDFManic's workaround of sticking the SFC in a 7Z file, then zipping up the 7Z file and adding that to hackchi with the command line argument /bin/snes /usr/share/games/CLV-Z-GWOZD/Goof_Troop_(U)_[!].7z.*

But even then I get a C7 error when I hit Reset. Any thoughts on troubleshooting?

*Goof Troop doesn't launch with the command line args above either
