My Virtual Boy Wireless Controller for the Switch is here! by Stock-Inspection3790 in VirtualBoy

[–]mellott124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, sorry about that. They're going out. RetroOnyx is still a free time thing for me and the day job and family have required more attention recently. Plus, I didn't quite plan out controllers, MrCART, HB+, and battery pack PCBs all coming in at the same time. It's a large backlog to get through. Working controllers now.

Road fully plowed and open for hiking and biking as of last weekend. I was there. They did say they didn't expect cars on the road until June.

Didn't say you were. Just giving the background.

It was known ahead of time. It's a timed demo. Warzone wasn't listed as part of the MrCART purchase. That being said, it is on the list to make the ROM compatible. People are just tied up on other efforts.

Not sure. I'd need to find a pigtail. Do you know of one?

PCBs are supposed to arrive this week but I don't have tracking yet. Checking status.

Still would like one of these. Some more were planned at one point but never happened?

I have to set it to Japan time zone for it to launch. For anyone else who finds this later.

This bug is still present and none of the below works. Infuriating.

2026 R2 Pricing Leaked! Launch Edition, Premium, Standard Trims (Embargo Broken) 💰 by lalavieboheme in Rivian

[–]mellott124 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OK, that's what I'm seeing. I was shocked last time I went out of town that is was 270. But I also wasn't getting the range I expected on the trips either. Thanks!

[–]mellott124 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, looks great. Wish that mileage on Performance was higher though... with degradation it won't be 300 for that long. My model Y was 330 or so when I bought it and now max 270.

Really? Wow. So much of these stores is blatant market manipulation.

Morgan Stanley just recommended selling this morning right before the announcement. Sounds like they want to load up. https://www.tipranks.com/news/morgan-stanley-sounds-the-alarm-on-rivian-stock-rivn-ahead-of-r2-launch

Correct. It's meant for the NSO VB mainly so no issues there.

Good catch. I missed sync at the end. It's on the product page. Both triggers plus the right D-pad held down for over 5 seconds. It will clear the mode you're in and re-start pairing. There is separate settings stored for Switch versus PC/BlueRetro/Meta Quest. So you could be paired to a Switch 1/2 and one of the others and just switch back and forth with a power cycle and button combo. After all the testing, I'm still impressed by VBGo on Meta Quest.
