2 Players Support

Hi guys,

I would love to play Mario Pinball by using both controllers in my arcade cabinet. Reason being I could use both side buttons (left and right) as if it was a real pinball :D

Is there a way to configure two controllers in this core in general?

Many thanks in advance!

Mario Pinball Land is a single player game though. Isn't there support for alternate buttons that could be utilized in this way?

Hi,
The problem is that only one controller at time gets recognised. Is this what you meant by 'alternate buttons'?
Thanks for your help!

I'll have to test it out, but I think if you have two controllers you should be able to just run the define buttons again for the 2nd controller and set buttons for that as well, but yeah if it's not mapped to a 2p in the game for that core, then it wouldn't do anything... hrmm.

Yep, I believe that is the main issue. Please let me know if you manage to achieve that. Thanks!
