Equip yourself with some wireless retro arcade action! In this video I get the new-ish 8BitDo Arcade Stick working on the Sega Saturn and Dreamcast with the help of some adapters from Brook and Retro-Bit.

I got the 8bitdo working on S mode with the 2.4ghz dongle, not sure if you need to update the arcade stick and dongle to have the same results on your end first but once it’s connected you just have to press Select + A on the controller for it to map correctly for fighting games, works like a dream

Man, thank you very much for this video. I’ve just bought an used a virtual arcade (gray) and and like to take a look in other options available. Good to know it can work with the “sega” bluetooth dongle

You make it seem so simple. But on my saturn it works when it want to wired. And bt pairs but won't register on the saturn.

Thank you so much for this-what would you say is the lag situation between wired/Bluetooth/2.4G for the 8Bitdo compared to OEM sticks?

Would this work on SNES AND Turbo Grafx 16 mini systems

I’m confused does the other 8bit version work like this one for Dreamcast?

@dieciseis 2 жыл бұрын

what about the visual memory in Dreamcast? how can you save? maybe with a second controller in the port 2 with the VMU? and sometimes the games only work with the VMU in port 1 I think thats important haha

@MakeYourOwnFun 2 жыл бұрын

The Brook adapter has a VMU built in which is awesome. If you are using the Retro-Bit adapter, you will need to add VMU in another controller port.

Will this work with super console x max ?

Great info. Do you have any idea if a similar setup would work with the Mayflash500? It was similar x-input/switch-input modes so I was thinking that I might be in luck. Either way, thanks for sharing this information :)

@MakeYourOwnFun 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching! I think it should work with the X-input mode. The brook adapters are pretty friendly when it comes to USB controllers. Just make sure you update the firmware. This thread on reddit seems to be finding a similar issue and I think Brook is even in the chat. www.reddit.com/r/SegaSaturn/comments/hpld1r/question_about_wingman_converter_sd/

Please set in PS3 mode of Mayflash 500 to connect with Wingman SD

@@MakeYourOwnFun Hey sorry for the delays, meant to reply to this the other day but totally slipped my mind. Thanks for the info, I am definitely considering testing it out, need to make sure it's gonna have the buttons bound the way I want them before I make the call though. I like having all my top buttons being punches and all my bottoms being kicks but sometimes playing on a ps3 or switch it binds them weird since some of them are technically shoulder/trigger buttons.

@@GOGO_Zippy Much appreciated, I do not own the device just yet but it's something I am looking into grabbing one of these days. Thanks again :) Hope it works out well, seems like a nice device.

@@joezep All good man! I usually end up remapping in game for like 90% of the experiments I do, but yeah gotta be sure if that’s gonna be a deal breaker. Great to see that Brook have found your question though!
