Official hakchi2 - NES Mini very simple pimp tool

[MartU]

I did. The embargo for the revised units was lifted today. The emulation doesn’t seem too bad at all.

The novelty of it appeals to me. I wouldn’t mind having one of these sitting next to my SNES and NES Classic. Too bad they couldn’t shrink it a bit further to have it more in scale with those two.

Sure, I like gadgets too. But porting something like Hakchi on a widespread and much sold device to something thats having a small userbase isn't really something worth doing. Want Hakchi, use a (S)NES mini

Great now Im addicted to Raiden Trad thanks to Cluster and his amazing hack

Mhm? With the BSNES core on the SNESMC?

Which game would you like to see work for Super Game Boy?

Just merged NESC/SNESC Cores together, so they work with both systems. You need Hakchi 2.20 and up for them to properly adjust But, I have been testing them, and they are all working awesome! Only 2 cores cannot be installed on SNESC, the NESC Filter Hack, and the RetroArch Extreme NESC

Right clicking would allow it to be downloaded, as well. But, here is a temporary link.

Yes, I put Cluster's Code in, so that it has my updates, and his, as well. So, you are up to date on the Cores, and can use them for both NESC/SNESC Just so long as you are using new Hakchi2 versions! I tested with both my NESC/SNESC with all cores, successfully.

Sorry if asked before - if I am doing multiple SNES mini - whats the best way to reset for the next one as Hakchi caches last uploads? Also is kernel is specific for that SNES or should I back kernel or each SNES individualy (again would this be overwritten each time)

Bump

Always flash custom kernel with each new system that you use via hakchi2, to ensure proper flashing.

Is it still required to restore stock kernel before flashing custom? Or can we just simply flash the custom?

Thanks that bit I get - but I mean the list of games uploaded how do I reset as it keeps the ones I already uploaded.

As long as you have your dump moved over then just flash custom.

Selecting from Hakchi, a different list of games will replace the ones on the system, when you flash.

Kernel Stock is only used when uninstalling hakchi2, or dumping for the first time.

 

[Dayardie]

So when I dump kernel for each console does it overwrite old one or should I make manual copy of each one 1st?

 

[Hellequin]

What is "no save variant" ?

BUMP (the read-me is not very descriptive regarding this)

BUMP (the read-me is not very descriptive regarding this)

I removed the no-saves from my set. But, they basically blocked saves from being made on the NESC/SNESC. You can use save state manager and system restore the NESC/SNESC to wipe saves, so they are not really important, anymore.

You can use the same kernel, and safely ignore md5 hash checksum error, unless you are worried about having the designated Kernel for each given system. In that case, you'd need to make a backup, and keep track. But, I just use a standard Kernel, as they all work just fine.

Has anyone had any sucess with any N64 games playing well? If so which ones?

So that's a yes, then, that's a relief, all we have to do to update is just to connect the device and then flash custom kernel with the new version. Excellent

If worried, make a manual copy, then remove the one you copied, so it can ask for a new dump, which would be designated from that particular system.

There has been some people posting already about it, yes it runs N64 games, I only have Mario64 on my SNES Mini and it is running great! Will test some more soon. But hey just go and install your favorite N64 games and write a post here how well they run!
