@KN4THX Thank you for that help. I never had a Genesis either, but that is what I know the machine as. I would definitely prefer to have the menu title say Genesis.

@frgn said in The best solution for Sega Megadrive/Genesis Mini on Raspberry Pi: @Ulmez Done. The link in the previous post has been updated. It's simply perfect!! Thanks! :D

@respite If you don't like the GUI, then on the same page there's an explanation on how to override the controls for a certain system - MD/Genesis in your case - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroArch-Configuration/#example-per-system-control-override-retroarchcfg. The file you need to edit is the retroarch.cfg in your /opt/retropie/configs/megadrive folder.

Another master piece by Ruckage. Looking forward to this one.

I forget which emulator but one of them has a core option for 6 button and 3 button controls. The other just has some of the 6 button games working with 6 buttons and some are stuck on 3 buttons.

as always, you solved the problem. Thank you @mitu

@mitu IT WORKED!!! Finally :) I had to reconfigure buttons but besides those details it completely fixed the problem!! thank you really

Hi @psyke83, Thanks very much for your help with that ... worked perfectly:). I connected the keyboard directly to my pi and ran the commands that way. Really appreciate your help. Cheers.

@simpleethat Hey sorry for the late reply. I’m just using the built in ES scraper ... nice and accessible. Has managed to scrape all of my games, albeit sometimes necessitating changing the source.

i just noticed the same issue occurs with sega cd and sg-1000

Hey guys, yes I like that one too thanks @Stuart2773 but it sounds too much like the snes classic menu as I have the original on my Nintendo build already. I do like the one @Clyde posted but only like the start of it, I might have a play and crop and loop before it all starts going crazy haha.

I am a subscriber to ETA Prime on Youtube. I got this email today about the M30 Bluetooth controller from 8bitdo being reviewed. Looks like an awesome pairing for this case!

@ruckage interested on adding this theme to your GitHub so it can be added to RetroPie's esthemes system? :)

@kleenax Could you please remove @BobHarris' pictures in your post? :) It's a little inconvenient for others to have to scroll over them again. You can edit your posts via the three little bars at the right side of the posts.

Very similar to my build (including the Mayflash), although I cut some grooves in the expansion slot to add some USB ports. I wired the reset and power button to work as well, using a coupleof trimmed microswitches and GPIO pins, think I used the 'PiGirl' script to add them easily, then set the reset button as an exit emulator option, as I just couldn't configure that with a standard Mega Drive controller.

@mitu wow it worked! thank you so, so much!

You have to scrape for Megadrive.
