Usb Controller Compatible Emulators

[ste_167]

Just to confirm the currently working emus..

MAME2X, CPS2Emu and Picodrive. Plus GNGeo2X dev version (where can I get it from?)

Is that the current full list? I'd love Vice or Frodo to have support too in the future! *Prays*

Here's the post for the new beta of GneoGeo, with 1-player USB joypad support.

I can confirm that Metal Slug X plays very nicely, even with the crappiest Logitech Wingman Joypad ever made ...

Oh, and Alex Kidd has USB support, but I haven' had time to test it out yet ...

I just posted in the thread about this in the EMULATION forum, but I'll repeat here: just got my cradle and got GNGeo2X (7a beta2), MAME and PicoDrive to work really, really well straight off. Still haven't got CPS2 working, but didn't try very hard 'cause I'm toast and need sleep... First impressions for the working three were very positive indeed!

GP2Xpectrum also has it.

Does anyone know if Frodo or Vice for the gp2x are still being worked on? Or does anyone know how to contact the developers of these emulators? 2 player (or even 4 player for the games that support it) c64 games would be excellent!

Again the thought of playing 2 player kick off on the ST emulator is making me want to buy the dock thingy now! Now what's the guys name that wrote the ST emulator? Skeevix ? or something like that

*Note:

I got CPS2 to detect the joypad, but it wouldn't work unless I had it in slot 2 on the BOB. After that, it was "OMFG, SHoooooters!!!!" For about 45 minutes

Dont forget you can do a L+R and then select rescan USB devices in CPS2, then reset the game to have it work with the UBS Pad


Did you all know the normal menu of the GP2x can be navigated using the USB gamepad?



GP2x Menu navigation works on all except e-book, video and photo. I guess GPH forgot to code for it?

I know you were asking about emulators, but I thought it's worth mentioning that Beat2x (excellent stepmania style game) works with USB controllers. I seem to remember someone posted a video of themself playing it on a dancemat.

Thanks for the replies. Hopefully, others will find this thread as useful as I will.

I should have checked the Emulation section.. exactly the same topic already there. Puck2099 also mentions that AlexKidd2X has 2-player support

scottm - the Atari ST emulator (OutcaST) is Skeezix's fine work. I'm sure he'll add support at some point, although he's currently putting his hours into BattleJewels which is really progressing - just you wait for the next release!

Must have had mine in slot 2 by luck as it worked for me too. I probably had my 360 controller in slot 1, as I'd been unsuccessfully trying to use it.

How you counting the slots, I have mine in slot 3 (3rd from left) and its works great...or is that the 2nd (from the right)

lol

Result!!!! In preparation I just ordered a Kempston look a like USB joystick (Competition Pro Joystick on amzon). In retrospect I also need to remember to actually buy the cradle

:rolleyes:
