There are versions that come with a built in raspberry pi or one without and it seems the mister would fit perfectly inside this stick. Looks like versions without trackball as well, no buttons on side for pinball. A bit pricey but I might check it out.

Shame that it doesn't have the side buttons for pinball. That's a pretty neat features in sticks of that size.

Let me know if anyone has found a way to get the player 2 controls to work as player 2 on MiSTer. For me, they act like a second set of Player 1 inputs.

Did you ever get an answer to this? I'm thinking about picking one up....

If you did not figure it out it seems that a setting in mister.ini is there for that specific case:

; Disable merging input devices. Use if only player 1 works.
; Leave no_merge_pid empty to apply this to all devices with the same VID.
;no_merge_vid=0x045E
;no_merge_pid=0x028E

Hello all. Does the trackball work with games that support trackball? Thanks.

I got one of these with a Raspberry Pi 3 recently. Basically this is a XIN-MO Arcade Controller and a USB Trackball. So you have two USB connections, one for the sticks and buttons and one for the Trackball. Works very well with RetroPi and Windows.

The XIN-MO Arcade Controller also works fine with Mister. It gets recognizes as two separate controllers for player one and two.

Unfortunately until now I have no idea how the USB Trackball can be recognized. The trackball has no additional buttons, so I have no idea how to initialize the mapping process. Any ideas? Even if the Trackball could be initialized you would have to use buttons from the XIN-MO Arcade Controller. So you would have to mix two input devices. The USB Trackball for moving and the XIN-MO Arcade Controller for buttons. Is this even possible with MiSTer?

Any ideas/help to get this running would be appreciated.

When I recall correct the Centipede core supports a trackball input. I think the trackball was detected automatically as a mouse and all you had to do was set up the buttons. I am not sure, it was a while ago that I tried it with a beta build but if I recall correct it was implemented later into the main build of the core.
