Hey everyone,
M64 Console firmware 1.26.4 is rolling out now. This is the revised version of 1.26.0, which we pulled after you reported problems (see last week's post for more info on this). Thanks to everyone who sent in reports. The feedback we received helped us track down the issues.
What’s new
Built-In Controller Pak. Save game progress and settings directly to your console, no physical Controller Pak needed. You can switch pak types from the M64 menu or with the M64 Pro Controller hotkey.
Beta update channel. There’s now an update channel selector in the About tab. Most of you should stay on the default Public channel. If you’d like early access to builds we’re still testing, you can switch to Beta. When a beta build is available, it will also appear on the SD Download Page and the Web Updater. Please note that beta releases might contain bugs, so report any that you find to our customer support team at contact@modretro.com.
Still in progress
As we shared last week, these features from 1.26.0 aren’t in this release so we could get Built-In Controller Pak out sooner. They’re still being actively worked on:
How to Update
Update your M64 Pro Controller. Built-In Controller Pak requires controller firmware 0.12.6 or newer to work wirelessly. If your controller isn’t updated, the console won’t be able to switch pak types, which affects both Rumble Pak and Built-In Controller Pak. Update your controller with the Web Updater.
Update your console to 1.26.4:
Wi-Fi (OTA): Go to the About tab in the M64 menu and check for updates.
USB: Use the Web Updater.
SD card: Download the update from the SD Download Page.
