Famicom/NES Joycons Lockup Input When Paired

Unread post by daiig »

Been trying to add the famicom joycon controller to MiSTer and when ever connect either one as soon as it pairs it locks up all input devices forcing a restart to continue.

There was an older post that said it was solved with an update..but I am updated to latests afaik - MiSTer v220108, OS v211112.

Has anyone successfully paired famicom/nes joycons recently? thanks.

I have 4 nes joycons and all work and pair up perfectly, even showing what player they are assigned to. I open up the OSD and push F11 then hold the sync button on the controller I am going to use and it works. This is all on the latest MiSTer update too.

Same problem over here...
I got me the Famicom Switch controllers (the ones they sell online only) and, when I try to pair the left one with my Mister, it recognises it alright but then it freezes. I can´t even use a Usb controller to push "finish" and get out...

Found this too viewtopic.php?t=3174
But no update is fixing my problem...any ideas? All the other bluetooth controllers work fine, I even tried a different adaptor, no luck 😦
And they work fine with the Switch, even with my PC...

Same here, after pairing the Famicom Switch Online controller, MiSTer switches off or freezes my keyboard. It would be awesome using those controllers for authenticy within the NES/Famicom core.
