... classic controller support which is arguably the best controller ever for TG16/CD games.

No turbob switches makes it arguably a piece of poo compared to original hardware.

But don't the top two buttons operate as Turbo buttons? I believe they do.

EDIT: Yeah, according to this:

I thought I remembered turbo spinning with Bonk.

But can you toggle on the fly between various levels of Turbob, or is it like Magic Engine where it's on/off and you can set the rate somewhere in the configuration stuff?

I still don't understand RGB for low res classic games.  I like the way the scanlines filter the pixels on a SDTV.  Mednafen feels more like real hardware when used through the Wii and on a SDTV.  Laptops tend to mess with the resolution when doing TV-Out, so it's outputting differently than real hardware would.  It's way closer on the Wii.  Not sure if Mednafen is outputting the actual resolution of the turbo/pc-e games, but it seems very close.  If I was gonna run RGB I might as well just emulate on a PC.

The A and B buttons operate as "I II: Turbo Off". The X and Y buttons operate as "I II: Turbo On." There's no middle turbo option, which is okay by me because I never use that one.

I guess since I have all the hardware, I don't see the point personally.
This is called "I don't have to do it so I don't get why anyone else does" :) hehe

I know you can assign turbo buttons, don’t know if you can toggle between various levels of Turbo. Not that big a deal in my opinion but if it can't the creator might add support for that in later releases (it’s only V0.0 the initial release)

Not sure if Mednafen is outputting the actual resolution of the turbo/pc-e games
It's not, but Raz0red has added support for the original resolution (240p) in the latest revision, you can compile the latest source or wait for the next release.

pretty much everyone should have a duo.  Even people who don't play video games.

But in the emulator realm, I just laptop+ootake+TV, and take it from there.

Maybe we should just start giving out free Duos... actually, that would be awesome.

RGB and scan lines are not mutually exclusive.

Id rather use a PS2 controller plugged into a PC, than have to deal with that crappy classic controller.

That things like holding a frigging fish.  Its all slippery.  Theres nowhere to grip it.  Its all smooth.

You have the urge to throw it in a lake.

Etc.

Just stop marinating your hands in butter or use the classic controller PRO, it just like the ps2's controller.

its not butter.  Its sweat, from playing games for hours at a time.

im not buying any controllers for the Wii with Pro in the title, because that's an oxymoron.

I own everything on the Virtual Console anyways.

Okay...so its a controller that literally fixes everything you hate about the classic controller and you don't want to buy it because it has the word "pro" in it?
