Can't Run Satan's Hollow

@Spottedfeather I don't understand this question. You've got a NES classic you've installed Arcade games on, but you're asking in the RetroPie forum why they're not working?

Have you hacked a Pi into a NES classic or something? We could do with some more info as to your setup, could you please provide it as per the link here: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

He's posted the same question all over the internet in hopes of a reply. I've seen him at atariage.com and gbatemp.net. I thought it was a bit excessive to see him posting at theperfectpancake.com, but I guess he's just covering all his bases.

@rbaker that doesn't have anything to do with what I asked. But thanks anyway.

Spottedfeather

@markyh444 No, it's just a regular NES Classic. I'm asking as many places as I can think of to widen my chances of getting help. Is it not possible to play four player games on an NES Classic ? The NES Classic is running mame 0.78, if that makes any difference. I can set up the controls to show 4 players, but I still can't choose any character other than the first character....which isn't so bad in The Simpsons game, as Marge is the first character and she's the one I use anyway.

But in the TMNT arcade game, I normally play Donatello...who just happens to be player number 4.

Sure it does. You got a question with the NES Classic and you posted it in a retropie forum?!?!?!? Just pointing you in the right direction for support with your device :)

Yeah, @Spottedfeather which version of RetroPie are you running?

markyh444

@Spottedfeather Also, a regular NES classic doesn't run any MAME romsets as it's just a NES emulator. Either it's a hacked one you've bought, or something else entirely. Or, I've trip-trapped over your bridge and I'm being trolled like a good-un.

@markyh444 @rbaker You're a bit out of touch. The NES classic can run RetroArch. :)
@Spottedfeather If you use the 2 player versions of Simpsons and TMNT you can select your character.

Regardless, this isn't the RetroArch support forum.

markyh444

@windale not out of touch mate, but this isn't the NES classic hacking forum. And I did ask if it was a hacked NES classic.

Also as @caver01 says, this isn't a Retroarch forum either. How am I meant to know an overpriced Nintendo I've not seen in person can run Retroarch?

windale

@markyh444 Clearly you had no idea what he was talking about from the replies you made (hence out of touch) and it doesn't hurt to give him an answer.

markyh444

@windale I agree, I did have no idea what he was on about and I asked him.

Still not a RetroPie issue.

I've been here for over a year now and I'm still waiting on someone to tell me where I can purchase a hubcap for a '72 Pinto hatchback. If I have to talk about this RetroPie thing much longer, I'm gonna have to start trying my luck over at the Frito-Lay forums.

@Spottedfeather what does satans hallow do when you try to play it?

@edmaul69

It's likely related to this:

@Spottedfeather also it appears the coin button doesnt work in lr-mame2003. It works in lr-mame2010 and lr-mame4all. Mame4all is an older romset. however, the .78 romset version works in lr-mame4all. There are a few mame2003 games with this issue. Tapper is another one where the coin doesnt work in mame2003.

@edmaul69

It's really the list of games involved here that had me switch over to advmame. It has it's own issues as well and @dankcushions has done an absolute miraculous job squeezing blood from a stone in lr-mame2003, but I'm finding the most recent versions of advmame to be a nice fit for me personally.
