10 months later and I just installed it. Took me 1 day for just download, not many seeders. Man you're awsome. Thank you

[@nintendo1978]

One question if I want to add a few games to PSP is it like other emulators where you put the room in the designated folder? Thank you

[@scottgowans69]

You could not know how excited I am by this. An old pack I had from years ago seemed broken and I didn't have time to assemble my own, but this inspiration of an updated all in one pack will allow me the chance to get it up and running again. Thanks for the guide, very well done. (Loved the shield controller battery video too!)

[@kelleytech]

Glad I could help and thanks for watching. lots of fun to be had with this pack. Happy Gaming!

[@scottgowans69]

@@kelleytech All working fantastic (thanks again!) on 2x2019's and a 2017, with a few game exceptions which cause some issues. Do you or anyone else here know how to force a different emulator to be used with this setup? Say for example, Galaxian, which seems to hang using MAME2010 after a few seconds. I tried through retroarch and used MAME2003 and it works fine, but can't seem to find how to get Hyperspin Android to change a default emu for one game. (Donkey Kong also hangs on 2010 after a minute or 2) Any ideas?

[@shoeprano27]

thanks for the walkthrough. if time permits, can you show us how to add new single roms to whatever console, including the cover art, video sample, sound, etc?

Appreciate it. Excellent walkthrough. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@PacoCopa-in2bk]

Thank you very much, last night I installed it following the Tutorial, it works correctly on nvidia 2019 with android TV 11. It already contains the consoles and the games, the law here is that it did not come with roms and if it has them, in my case I will change the roms because the ones it has are not in Spanish. Thank you very much for your tutorial and dedication, Greetings!!

Thanks a ton for the video. I'm going to try to get this working with a NAS. Should be a simple modification of your tutorial... but I have a habit of mucking up anything to do with home networking.

Hello, I followed the instructions and when I click on hyperspin, nothing happens. Is this method still working?

[@lonster3000]

I just installed this on my Shield this week. It’s a great-looking setup, but I have yet to find a way to create favorites. Having to scroll through hundreds or thousands of games to get to the one I want is a real pain. Which is too bad because other than that this is the best emulation front end I have found for android.

[@DJizLurch]

I'm using an Xbox Series X controller and just like other Retroarch standards you can use the LB to go up and RB to go down to just letters (Press RB > A, Press RB [again] > B, Press LB > [back to] A etc...). I would assume it would work for other similar controllers (Xbox, PS, etc...)

When I extract using NZB Leech it creates a folder named "Chippos" instead of Hyperspin. And instead of the files being in separate folders like "Apk's, Emulators...etc" everything is just in the "chippos" folder.

can i just download all emulators at the same time?

Thank you so much. My first attempt failed. I found that i had to have my root folder on the ext ssd be called Hyperspin. Any other name produced an error on launch.

What did you rename it from? I used NZB Leech to download and when it unpacked everything the folder was named "chippos" instead of "hypersin'. I renamed it to hyperspin, but still didn't work.

There's a start button but it sucks to use it, I personally have to lift up the plastic over it to use it, the start button is on the bottom between the sticks. In the end I got frustrated and stopped using it, I had a PS3 controller laying around it and it works with the shield.

Did you figure this out??

[@goblue84]

I figured it out, was probably something I did wrong on the PC side of things. The root Hyperspin folder was redundant. I moved(copy and pasted) the Hyperspin folder with 5 files further down on my usb drive, and then deleted that original Hyperspin folder and it worked. Took some extra time, but whatever.

[@harbyoye]

Hey no I have not figured it yet.

[@harbyoye]

​@goblue84 what do I need to do?

[@goblue84]

The root hyperspin file you have probably shows one sub folder, right? You need to get rid of it. So once you enter that folder you're taken to another Hyperspin folder, with 5 sub folders. You need to copy that folder and paste it back onto your hard drive or usb stick, whatever you're using. Then go back and delete that original folder that showed just one sub folder.@@harbyoye
