  1. Over at http://intellivision.us/raspberry/raspberry.phpthere is a set of files for RetroPie that includes AdvMame/Mess that will run the Astrocade emulator. It is also possible to use Bally controllers with RetroPie if one has the Astrodaptor USB adaptor.

     

    It does take a little bit to get it up and running; you have to be fairly comfortable working from the command line in linux and understand (reasonably well) how RetroPie is setup and runs things.

    Finally forced to add this cart to my collection. Received on Friday and have been glued ever since. I think it's the game I've been waiting all my life for. Crazy.

    Same boat for me - my copy arrived late last week as well and only had a few moments to pop it in and try it out. Talk about a game begging for dual joysticks! Need to get used to using the keypad for directional firing. Would love to figure out a way to mount a joystick over the keypad.

  3. Worked perfect mckafka99. I used your settings - and set triangle and circle to 5200_reset and 5200_select. This worked perfectly. Thank you for posting the screenshots! :)

     

    EDIT: OK Frogger is WEIRD! Is it just me or are the controls just wonky? I have to press the direction then the fire button to make him move in that direction. That's very counter-intuitive and makes it very hard to play. Defender works great. I will enjoy trying the games on this system.

    I believe on the 5200 that is the normal behavior for Frogger - there does exist a hacked/patched version of the ROM where that behavior is changed.

  4. I have attached pics of my KEYBOARD and SETTINGS. I am using a PSP2000 with 6.60-C2. I do use .bin 5200 files also. I did have a little funkiness when the game first starts with not having control (ship would go left automatically and I couldnt control it) but I found that when I started my second game the controls worked fine; it also could have been from jumping out to the emulator setting during the game (pressing SELECT while in game) and then 'Back to Atari' - I cant recall now.

     

    Anyways, perahps these will be of some help

    Did you order it with a clear cart? ;-)

     

    I find this one is awkward on the jaguar, even with the pro controller... I'm going to try using the keypad exclusively for 360 degree fire this go around. Playing Nightstalker on the INTV warmed me up to this idea, we'll see how it goes.

    I wasnt aware that a clear cart was an option but then I got an email from Carl about the option so I decided I may as well get it. :-)

    If anyone is interested in the Fairchild Channel F, I have it configured on my system but have not uploaded it to the website yet. I have also configured many other emulators such as the Sega Megadrive, Coleco Adam, MSX, PSX, Sega CD, and N64. I will post an update in the next few weeks.

    I would be very interested in Fairchild Channel F emulator for RetroPie! 😃 any chance of seeing Bally emulator as well?

  7. Bally's Wizard in the background for the win!

    Ditto this! Brings back memories of heading to the local pizza joint, grabbing a Coke and playing this table (or whatever one happened to be installed at the time) mornings before walking to school.

  8. I never brake - just have to avoid bouncing off as few walls/corners as possible. Also, I am presuming that practice on the Seattle track were the only 'rules' for this round as I did adjust my tires and shocks to find something that worked better than the defaults. If we were only supposed to use the default tire/shock/gears than my previous post was my best.


  9. well for me the use of wireless xbox controllers

    I have two different types of Xbox wireless controllers that worked without any setup on my RasbPi2; just had to use an Xbox to USB adaptor obviously to connect it to the Pi which I already had hacked together a number of years ago.

     

    The above aside, it is true that there is some effort in getting controllers setup and configured the way one wishes but I love my RetroPie setup for being able to use a keyboard, a2600 joystick, Intv controllers, wireless Xbox controllers and an clone SNES controller. Apart from the A800/A5200 emulator which is a bit of a pain to navigate in/use, I have found all of the others to work remarkably well and smoothly.
