Oh no! Obvious question: you're sure it is charged up, right?

I haven't had any controller end up unresponsive. I've tried all kinds of crazy things. I was always able to re-flash it after a mistake.

I'm not sure that would be easier! :D I am unfamiliar with that version, how close are they?

I don't have one of those, so I can't try it. HOWEVER! In some kind of weird twist of fate: I did just recently buy 2 of the Retrobit 2.4ghz wireless Saturn controllers. They come with both a USB and Saturn wireless dongle. I bought them for my Saturn. I will certainly try them and let you know if those ones work! I also have a couple 8Bitdo NeoGeo controllers coming tomorrow. So many tests to do! :D

@@retropint Thank you!

Hey, so for sure the file is not zipped, it is a .bin file. But you're making me wonder how you are doing it, because the file is not zipped when you download it from the Analogue Support page. It comes directly as a .bin file. So I am concerned that you are doing something else that is making the process not work. Feel free to reply with some more details, and I'll try my best to help!

I got the perfect setup working with the 8bitdo Arcade Stick. Check out my video showing it working, and how to configure it: th-cam.com/video/haH4DlQW-Rs/w-d-xo.html

Glad I could help!

You're welcome!

Thanks!

I have not tried. I wonder if the effort is just to find an updated image set. Perhaps I'll look into it, soon!

I was certainly having some issues controlling the character. I think with the thumbpad extension screwed into the controller, I was accidentally pressing up slightly, which stops the character from walking. It's better without the attachment, at least for me. Thanks for watching!

@@retropint awesome

It was a favourite of mine, as a kid! I will beat it some day! :D

Glad I could help!

I don't have a way to measure the latency myself, but I have also read that the USB wired controllers are the lowest latency option. Next time I sit down and test controllers, I will be sure to focus some more on wired controllers. Thanks for watching!

There is a way to do it, and Analogue provides some guidelines... I think in the manual? The people who made the zip file of images I shared wrote a program to create the images. So it is definitely doable. It's just not completely straight forward. I tried using images formatted for the Pocket on the Duo, and although it did display something, the images were quite messed up (rotated and skewed).

@@retropint thank you, I used it, and it's good enough for me, almost all my games are in it

If you check out my video where I update the library images for the consoles supported by the Pocket Adapter Set, you can see the folder structure of the SD Card for the Pocket. I wonder if that video can help you. th-cam.com/video/GAM5z07N_F4/w-d-xo.html

You have to add all that yourself dude...

@@theseriousaccount Interestingly, I am pretty sure the folders are created automatically by the console.

@@retropint not the ones for the library images.

That's right. You need an updated firmware for the adapters to work. The link in the video description is the place to get the latest version of the firmware, so you should be good to go. Let me know how it goes!

All they need to do is enable us to remap the buttons, and then we'd be good. So close, indeed!

Hey, I don't have any of the everdrives, so I have no tried any. From what I have read from others: The Turbo Everdrive Pro does work, but it has problems fitting into the cartridge slot. Some people remove the plastic shield on top, and then it fits. Others have bought a cartridge extender, and then it works. There is apparently an issue with Save States and the Everdrive, too.

Hey! You are correct: your best bet is to just use the dongle on both consoles. It will work 95% the same. There are some slight changes to how the controllers work between dongle and firmware update. I made a video about exactly that, please have a look: th-cam.com/video/bZkpG0mvVkc/w-d-xo.html

Glad I found these :)

If you have formatted it FAT32 that is all you need to do. Pop it in, and the console will create the folders it needs. 👍

@@retropint Thanks!!!!

I have not personally heard of a third party dock that works.... But that doesn't mean they don't exist!

I didn't do anything special. It just worked like the other games. I guess you could make sure that the cartridge is inserted the correct way, and deep enough into the adapter. I had a couple carts that didn't immediately fit in all the way, right away.

My understanding is that you need to wait for an update to the jailbreak.

@@retropint I gave it a try and you lose your jailbreak Assets setup, it's easy enough to switch back but as I have 80+ games I can do either, I am just not keen on playing my CD's on it so prefer to play those from SD.

My experience in doing this is that the Z and C buttons do not work in that case. A, B, X, Y, L and R do, though. Do Z and C work for you?

i just double checked and your right i thought worked my bad, mine seems to be working as a 4 button pad oddly with the L being copy of the one of the other buttons and R being hard punch on the kabuki arcade fighter anyway.@@retropint

@@RetroTuna Oh weird! I tried the m30 in Street Fighter 2, in one of my other videos. I was able to have all 6 buttons working. Just not the 6 I wanted!

@@retropint That's odd well i know one thing it needs a firmware update to fix 6 button support. i think i may had have all 6 buttons working on my Ps4 arcade stick will have to give it another go.

This is my favourite version of the game! I hope you enjoy it, too.

As far as I know, you are correct: This method is for cartridges only.

Oh, and it works for CDs too. Even backup, burned, CDs.

Thanks for the quick help

To be clear: I don't have experience with the Jailbreak. I am going for the full nostalgic experience of going to the store, buying a game, popping it in and playing it. So I have not ventured into the realm of jailbreaking. That being said: I have seen comments from others that you are correct, you will need to wait until the jailbreak is updated. Keep an eye on the jailbreak website for an update. The save state feature is pretty valuable!

No worries! I'm glad you found the answer. You can absolutely use them with the dongle again, it is just a bit tedious to swap the firmware back and forth. I literally bought extra controllers instead. :D

And connect without dongle

Hey, thanks for the comment. In the release notes for the 1.2 firmware release, it specifically says they added support for the m30 with the dongle, so that is why I tested it that way. "Added support for 8BitDo M30 2.4G dongle". I have a video testing the m30 with the flashed firmware, too. It does work with 6 buttons, but it's not perfect: Two of the face buttons don't work, instead the shoulder buttons are used. This is an -ok- solution, but for a game like Street Fighter 2, would like to use all 6 face buttons, instead. I appreciate the comment though, because if I missed something, I would love to know. Cheers!

@@retropint i know for the 2 buttons , it s maybe because with néo géo cd pad, you have only 4 buttons, it work with néo géo cd pad in bluetooth or with dongle

Ooooh really? So they fixed it, nice!

I'm sorry you're having trouble with the controllers! When the controllers are connected to your PC, you can use a game pad testing application to see if they work, through the browser, like this one: hardwaretester.com/gamepad That should let you test them. I just tried it with both the included USB cable, and the included USB dongle. It was detected by the gamepad tester in both cases. After you test if they work, and they do, you can either follow the steps I outlined in the video to flash the firmware on them for the Duo, or instead just use the included dongle plugging it into the back of the Duo. Good luck!

I don't have an everdrive, so I can't test it. Maybe another viewer can answer. Someone on a group I am in said it does not, though.

No. It only works with original HU Cards. Tested it with the Everdrive Turbo Pro, and it doesn't work.

For Savestate 😉😉😉

@@luckyluke95 cheater lol

Does the jailbreak only work on the older firmware? Nice. Certainly if you don't play physical carts, then don't upgrade!

I love Macross 😍😍😍

6 buttons do work with the M30, if I flash the firmware, and use the shoulder buttons. It's just not 'perfect' :D

@@retropint exactly, the mapping buttons is like Snes controller. I prefer use A B C X Y Z 😢😥

I managed to get Bloody Wolf in there for you, glad you noticed! :D

How much did that cost you? it's one of my most expensive purchases at £120, it was an absolute minter though, great game to.

I appreciate your feedback, thanks!

You're welcome!

I didn't have a Game Gear as a kid, but a friend did. I am enjoying the library now, though!

Even though it seems small, it really makes a difference to see the images.

You're welcome!

You're welcome! The games run as well as I could have hoped. Enjoy!

Hey! I forgot to play Bloody Wolf on stream, like I said I would. I did play it off-stream, it seems to work fine and it is the US cart.

@@retropintim trying to get it on ebay thanks for the reply

I'm using an Elgato HD60 X.
