Wiimote as lightgun
-
Been a while since ive been in the pi scene. Is there yet a easy setup to use your wiimotes as lightguns for the pi? Please help if you can. Thanks

Yes. I have it set up with a Wiimote and a Dolphinbar. You plug the Dolphinbar into the first USB port (top left), which is the Player 1 slot. Set the DolphinBar to Mode 2 and sync the Wiimote with the Dolphinbar (you have to press the Sync button on both at the same time). That's pretty much it.
As for the games, the majority of the gun games I have are arcade games (Lethal Enforcers, Operation Wolf, etc), and just to separate everything from my regular arcade sets (Mame4All, FBA), I put all of my gun games into the Arcade folder, and set the default emulator for every game in that folder to AdvMame 1.4 (If you don't have it on your setup you may have to install it from the RetroPie menu). There is also now support for NES (Duck Hunt, etc), just make sure you have the default emulator for the gun games set to the lr-fceumm emulator, since it won't work in nestopia. Sadly, there is no console support for SMS or Genesis/Megadrive yet, as far as I know. Let me know if you have any other questions.
