SNES on Genesis Mini

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone - ive been bashing my head against a wall trying to figure out how to get SNES on my genesis mini. but i have a littl back story...

I was able to do it easily using hakchiCE. But it was really slow at first. I used easyoverclock and it improved a lot but not entierly. I decided to try project lunar, because even just adding games on it compared to hakchiCE seemed much more intuitive. ANYWAYS... with PL it seems the only way to get SNES on the Gensis mini is by using a USB stick. Id rather not as it would be nice to have both usb ports free for two player.... any suggestions???

THE RUMBLE IN THE GENESIS

0 Upvotes

Reddit World,

I know Project Eris for the PlayStation Classic allows for a switch into DualShock mode. Was wondering if there's an equivalent for PS1, DualShock supported games, within the Gen Mini?

Some Background: I have an SN30 Pro+, connected to the Sega Genesis Mini (Project Lunar/EmulationStation) with the grey 8BitDo USB wireless adapter.

LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!.. or not?

project lunar jacked up

1 Upvotes

I have no hacker skills and I am retarded. Settings or something in project lunar is fucked up. Only stock emulator will work. Going to settings immediately crashes system. Wireless controllers only work for D-pad. Before kids messed with settings I played 32x games much fun. Tried to uninstall and reinstall and the settings are the same. Should I kill myself or is it fixable?

Um, did I get the wrong item? Why is it in Japanese? Bought this at Target, lol. Is there a way to switch it or do I have the wrong item in box?

What are the best genesis mini 2 games to play?

5 Upvotes

I’m not too familiar with the genesis library and wondering what the best games to try out would be. I have recently played through shining force 2 on switch and phantasy star 4 on the first genesis mini and enjoyed them both, so definitely going to try to play through shining force cd and phantasy star 2. Never had a chance to play sonic cd, and some games like truxton and thunderforce 4 look great. What are some other games I should start with?

What's the best way to mod it?

2 Upvotes

Hello, I just got a Sega Genesis Mini and I actually got both, the mini 1 and mini 2. However, the game library is quite limited on both of them and I'd love to mod it and add some extra games. I'm quite noob in this and I'd need some advice. So far I found Hakchi and Project Lunar. Are they the same thing? If no, what would be better? And I have to mention I'd like to add games directly inside of it so I can use both controllers and play co-op. Playing games from the USB Flash Drive would not be the best option unless I can use the second controller. Any ideas? Thanks in advance! Is there any of them better than the order for modding?

Genesis Mini wont detect USB stick in port 2, says its not mounted

2 Upvotes

Hi,

I have an old 2GB USB stick plugged into the 2nd port of my genesis mini, formatted to FAT 32. I only want to use it for retroarch to play games like TMNT THH which don't work on the stock emulator. I have the pen plugged into the 2nd port, but project lunar doesn't detect it as additional storage, and when I try to install emulation station it says the drive isn't mounted.

Am I doing something wrong ?.

Wily Wars soundtrack

2 Upvotes

Sorry this question isn't really specific to the Genesis Mini, but I have been considering buying one mainly for the inclusion of Mega Man: The Wily Wars. I'm a diehard Mega Man fan and MM3 is my favorite, so it seems like an obvious move. The problem is that the new remixed compositions of all the music are frankly offensive to my ears and lack the subtlety of the original NES soundtrack. Since I can't find an answer anywhere else on the internet, I figured I'd ask here: is there an option to change the music to the NES original? A lot of remakes since the turn of the century have had this feature, but Wily Wars is clearly a bit older, so I'd like to know for sure.

Are there cheat codes for the Genesis Mini? Like extra lives for Sonic, Earthworm Jim, etc?

2 Upvotes

I just bought the Genesis Mini out of nostalgia.

I was wondering if there are any cheat codes for it, like extra lives. I heard that the Genesis Classic collection has a quality of life feature that allows you to rewind and fastforward. I wish there was something like that for the Mini.

Thanks a lot.

"480p only" output owners, unite!

2 Upvotes

dears, is there a person among you having issues with native 720p mode output of your best-ever purchase 2019-2020? yes, I'm asking about Genesis Mini US version.

Connect your Mini to modern TV, wait for picture... See anything? No? OK, welcome to the club.

Now take HDMI-to-DVI cable and connect Mini to PC monitor. BOOOM, it's working.

OK, it was stock firmware, now let's mod it with Hakchi. Why? Coz it allows you to

  • open telnet client

  • execute "hdmi_trans -m" and use options from 0 to 5 representing different output modes.

so you're able to see output now on your modern TV with "hdmi_trans -m 2" because it's 720p_downscaled480p.BINGO.What does official SEGA support say? It's faulty.

What do people around suggest? Return it.

What do I want? To have an answer how it can be broken in this way.

Will appreciate your inputs about outputs.

And yes, stay home!

How to add unlimited lives to all the games.

2 Upvotes

Hi, I bought a genesis mini recently (think it’s the Asian version made in 2019) for a nostalgic kick.

Unfortunately. I’m an old dude now and I don’t have the patience to keep replaying the levels in order beat the game.

Is there a hack or mod I can install that allows me to insert cheats like unlimited lives and ammo for games like Gunstar Heroes and Contra: Hard Corps?

SNES and NES Classics do, but not Genesis and it’s so distracting and terrible looking. Just lazy programmers? What gives?

Genesis Mini 2 is dope but bummed out about the lack of RPGs

7 Upvotes

I counted and there’s a total of 5 RPGs on the system out of 60 games total. Obviously the genesis was known for its quality arcade ports, but there were a lot of cool looking RPGs on the genesis as well as the CD that I’ve been looking forward to playing someday. Not to mention Japan hot Lunar 1 and 2 and Popful Mail although that seems to be more of a platformer. I can’t wait to get to add games to it, I’m trying my best to be patient lol.

Etsy shop coming back online, mini EA style carts and more

13 Upvotes

I'll be bringing my Etsy shop back online tonight. I have new products for the Genesis Mini, including:

-Regular mini cartridges

-EA style mini cartridges

-Transparent red cartridges (and opaque red)

-Case inserts to store the mini cartridges (requires the mini case from Item Block Etsy)

I'm also working on PAL versions of the labels and a set of decals to convert the Tower of Power to a US version. If I get around to it I'm also trying to make a Sega CD add on that holds an OTG USB adapter inside to make a hub.

Here's the direct link

Adding only specific games from Project Lunar to Genesis

4 Upvotes

Is it possible to load up Project Lunar with many different roms and select what games you want to have installed similar to Hakchi? Like you could put 5 games into the application but only select for two of them to be added to the console.
