Raspberry Pi emulation revisited

I can post my build later but it is super easy. Can purchase everything off Amazon for under $70 bucks.

1. Pi (Bundle w/ wall wart)
2. SD Card
3. Encloser
4. Get a USB SNES controller instead of NES. You will end up downloading a lot of SNES ROMs also. Plus you can use the SNES controller for Gameboy games like Pokemon.

Emulator Installer

Yes but find its difficult. Once you get a controller set up to a usb port it's better to not switch it. It's buggy usually and sometimes I would have to fresh install.

Reason I said just get the SNES controller and use it for Sega, NES, SNES and Gameboy titles.

very easy, read about it here last week, ordered it, had mame, nes, snes, n64 and sega on it same day it arrived.

Thats lame. I would want the proper controller for each system

The usb controllers are buggy because firmware for these knockoffs really suck.

I rather use the SNES anyway. IMO it's the better controller. What benefit do you get from using the a Sega or NES controller?

Yeah I guess.

I just ditched those square ones once the new NES released. So authentic to me is actually these. But it was those rounded non-square ones.



So stopped using the square ones once these came out.

I have an NES controller I use on my PC. Works well for Super Tecmo, Zelda, etc. But not quite for Tyson Punchout. I've beaten Tyson on a real NES and I can't get past Soda Popinski on an emulator. Timing might be too important for Punchout.
