+swlovinist Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 If someone can send me a list of games to test, I would be more than happy to as i am back from a 7 day training. I hope that there is an update to this console so that it can address some of the carts that do not play on the original library. (It might take a day or two but will get around to it.)

I've got a question. Does the Genesis pad work if you start the machine with a Joystick plugged in and then switch to the pad?

+swlovinist Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I have tested the following. All NTSC that I am aware of. Other than Freeway once, and Dragster...all the others did not work.

AtariLeaf Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 That's a lot of good games that don't work. If you have to put everything on an SD card it defeats the purpose of having a Retron 77 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/280100-retron77-compatibility-list/page/2/#findComment-4062120 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMaddog Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Anyone know if ROM hacks made for the Flashback Portable (ie Star Raiders) would work on the SD card for the Retron? I'm wondering if it might make up for the lack of "other" controlers support...

Be good to see how this develops as more people try these carts as it's entirely possible, both Swlovinist and I have "duff" carts. I had to give a lot of mine a good clean to get them to work on the Retron. Of course these things are also in some cases 40 years old Swlovinist On Robot Tank did you get an odd rolling screen saying "Switching to Reserve Tank" Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/280100-retron77-compatibility-list/page/2/#findComment-4062394 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also my Realsports Boxing did this but do not know if I got a PAL cart. Also, do not know if what we have is the commercial unit or if there will be any changes to hardware before released.

I'm wondering if it might make up for the lack of "other" controlers support... The hacks that specifically eliminate the need for unsupported controllers would likely work, but these also take advantage that hardware switches like select are available as easily-accessible buttons on the AFP, so the results may not be as practical on the R77.

+swlovinist Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Just wanted to post this here as well. I had a strange issue with my fire button not registering. It stopped registering, and all my controllers stopped working. The only time a button press was working was in the home menu selecting a rom. The issue was resolved by reformatting the SD card and downloading the R77 image from here: https://www.hyperkin.com/r77. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/280100-retron77-compatibility-list/page/2/#findComment-4062897 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It stopped registering, and all my controllers stopped working. The only time a button press was working was in the home menu selecting a rom. The issue was resolved by reformatting the SD card and downloading the R77 image from here: https://www.hyperkin.com/r77. I had the same issue, also fixed by re-imaging the card. Menu fine, in the emulation, nothing. When I checked the card, the Stella directory was completely corrupted with odd filenames and the settings file "STELLARC" could not be opened. I also had an issue where I lost sound and fire function, again re-imaging the card restored it.
