Yep. Hopefully the mouse will be detected and work fine.
Wireless/Bluetooth or connected via USB?
Keyboard is wireless and I know that's already fine as I've used it for commands etc.
I have a wired and a wireless mouse but I'm not sure where I've put the latter so wired tonight.
I'll try a joystick game as well like swos. Be interested to see if the arcade stick works OK and what sensi will be like with it data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
First test.Amiga emulator uae4all works with the mouse and keyboard and launched and played cannon fodder fine.
Will test swos now.
Ok so a few Amiga roms work fine. The gui is extremely easy and quick to configure. Roms need to go into the amiga folder under roms and then you just mount the roms on the disk drives. Dead easy. I am having issues saving games though. All the other emulators save a state by a combo of select r1. This doesn't work on amiga.
I created some blank discs with the feature that's on the windows version of it but again on cannon fodder it doesn't appear to work.
On the gui itself (accessed by hitting ctrl esc) there is a save state tab and save and load buttons. When I hit save it showed a thumbnail image of my game so I thought that had done it. To test I quit out of the emulator and relaunched the game and escaped to tab and hit load state but an error popped up saying the file doesn't exist so not sure.
I'll check the retropie wiki later and see if I've missed something.
Anyway moving on until I figure out the amiga save issue, my wife has just gone on her hols and taken the kids so I'm all alone for a week.
To celebrate I'm going to have a snes beat em up session tonight. Beat em ups are my favourite genre and in the 80's and 90's these were coming out by the truckload. The snes arguably had the best ones available in terms of quantity.
So tonight I'll play some of these:
Double dragon
Ninja warriors
Final fight trilogy
Knights of the round
Batman returns
Battle toads
Battle toads and double dragon
Xmen
War of the gems
Maximum carnage
Separation anxiety
Captain commando
Turtles in time
Saturday night slam masters
Final fight 2 is crap. Dead bland and I turned it off at stage 3 once I knew it wouldn't get better. I heard FF3 is a lot better so I'm about to try that now.
Played some final fight 3 last night.
It's a lot better than the bland 2nd entry but still not as good as the original.
I then fancied a shmup break so opted for U.N Squadron
This for me is the best shmup on the snes. I just like the theme, soundtrack and I think it's simply fun to play.
I then finished the session with some Legend of the mystical ninja again on the snes. This is a wacky game from Konami and tough as nails. It was one of my favourite snes games. It has that quirky Japanese touch to it.
Just found out there is an achievements system integrated into the old retro games. I just need to activate it in a config file data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
