How are you all hooking up your SNES, Sega Genesis, & N64 controllers to the NES Classic?

I finally got MSX to work! I must have had the wrong bios files.

It is funny because the bios files are in the 'shared roms' folder inside /etc/libretro/system, but it doesn't seem to look there. That directory is populated by default. Even after I uninstalled all possible modules, there still is a bunch of stuff in there.

Like there is a folder: SEGA - SF-7000 in there, and I know I never put it there. And there is a bios file inside it. But I'm thinking retroarch will still not look there for bioses in this environment. It will look in /etc/libretro/system, but not if it is inside a folder.

I also have Mother 3, which is 32 GB uncompressed, 11 GB compressed, in its own folder. What could have caused the C8 error? One thing I noticed was that while I could create a Mother 3 save file, when I tried to launch that save file, it just reset the ROM, ignoring the save state. Could that be because the file size (uncompressed) is too big? Could this have caused the C8 error?

Probably it's the size of Mother 3, it's too big. I deleted mine before flashing to prevent this

I just encountered an issue where Super Mario 64 uses the built in save system fine yet Zelda and Banjo delete my saves after going back to the main menu, anyone else?

Does banjo even let you create a save when you go home? Or if you go home does it just close out the game?

I'm talking about the save files in game, which are supposed to be working.

Is memory pak required for that game?

So i have the parent Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr roms downloaded but noted they are both missing some sound effects. Do I have to also download a child rom to get the missing sound effects?

I think so, it isn't supported?

What formats does gme (game music emulator) handle? I got it to play spc so far.

I'm assuming it does nsf also (of course), does anyone know the rest? It didn't play playstation minipsf.

Does it do mp3? (probably alot to expect).

Most I think are using the Wii classic controller. It's worked great for me.

youngtune27 · Feb 27, 2017

I don't believe so unless you add this command. Assuming you're using glupen. This was a few pages back.

Thanks @pcm720 for the core updates for SNES. Works great and now have save states. I find the 'sprites' aka characters in the SNES games more pixelated that the snes9x2010 version.

Oh well, just an observance, but now can save game progress, so you have to give and take I guess.

Is a fix inevitable for that core (snes9x2010) so that it will be able to be used again and still create save states.

Great work by the way.

Snes9x2010 is superior for gameplay experience (with a couple exceptions), and there are some games where the differences are glaring. The rain drops in ALTTP, the visuals in Donkey King Country, and sound effects in general are all distorted in snes9x2005. Those are just some examples. Unfortunately, there is a bug in snes9x2010 that creates 5MB save states, so you could quickly eat up your memory and get a C4 error if you save too many games. The only game I actually found to be improved on snes9x2005 is Yoshi's Island.

I would have to agree with you. The gameplay is good, but heavily pixelated in snes9x2005. But I guess you can have save states now so that's better

I tried this but the system still deletes my files after a reset.

Did you readd retro from modules after adding the command? What about saving through retro. Open up a game that retro. Then open of hakchi settings. Change save states to 1 then save it. Then exit out and go back in and click load state. Does that not work either

Yeah I readded the retroarch mod with the added command. I guess save states do work so I'll be using that, but I'd much rather the normal file system worked so it was a more authentic experience. Beggars cant be choosers I guess.

I agree. You don't wanna have to open up retro to load the file either. And to save it etc. But its better than not being able to save at all.

Just challenge yourself and only use the save states, during the "save" points of the game.

I can't wait for a robust core to play Breath of the Wild... Any chance?

All Patches can be found in their 8Bitdo forums, they are stickied in each forum.

Thank you very much for your usefull information. I tried beta 1.22 for the receiver but i wont start after installing the firmware so i tested 1.05 beta and it's working fine. For the nes30 controller i went for 2.73 beta. It's a bit strange with it, without any configuration in retroarch the d pad works in all nes games. But in some snes games like all mortal kombat games the d pad doesen't work. I ordered two sfc30 controller and will thest them again. As i saw on the 8bitdo side, they are using the same firmware like the nes30.

Maybe there is a way to save and load retroarch settings? So we don't nee to run the controller configuration after importing a retroarch update. Btw i'm using the xmb theme and it looks very nice.

Tried also some n64 games for the first time. Most of them run fine. I never playd n64 before amd i don'like the feel of this games. NES and SNES are much better for me.
