SNES Classic mini with USB external drive

[@TacticalPower88]

Hopefully a similar hack is available for the N64 mini, ROM loading with A optimized N64 emulation machine by Nintendo themselves would be amazing for the emulation community

does the snes need to have hakchi 2 on the snes for the game rom files on usb drive to work

[@Dani-jz4pi]

hi mate, could you please share the video setup ? I'm trying to obtain at least half of the resolution/quality you have on a led 40'' tv but it looks horrible, tried adjusting the retroarch setting along with the tv's but nothin works... please share your setup ! :(

[@Frankdux1989]

[@SKULLEYEZ]

Hi ,great video..just geting into the snes mini scene.the ebay links opens to "90 Degree Left & Right Angle Micro USB 2.0 OTG Host Adapter Convertor For Phone" which one do i need? the right hand side or left hand side?

[@matttherrien9608]

Did you not used to go by the handle Turboman?

[@ultrakwon]

I'm like that uncool dad who's still calling the SNES a "Super Nintendo," and the new kids are like, "Super hwat?! Mister, I don't know what star system you came from, but please don't ever call a Snez a 'Super Nintendo' again. Like ever. That is so offensive."

[@TurbomanUK]

ULTRA KWON Exactly. It’s weird that there is even any comments made. It’s the Super Nintendo. :)

[@chivalrous_chevy1163]

Question can u hack the SNES with the USB drive without via PC to snes

[@Axel19762908]

I think its not a problem withthe kernel its a problem with the adapter. Otg isnt like otg. Today i tested 2otg adapters. No one works. It must let the power go through to exit. Most of the otg adapter let the power go in, but not to the exit, only to the usb in connectors t9 power up power needed external equipment. It must support charging. Put power into the adapter an the exit to your mobile. It its charging, i think it would work on the snesm.

[@VaughnJogVlog]

If they have to be SF ROM files to read, you’re not going to get any other console running just yet. Sounds like the next obstacle will be getting compressed ROMs running, that will open the door to everything.

[@KMFDManic]

Thanks for the shout-out, my friend:) Be sure to check out my latest USB-HOST Video, with some nifty updates:)

[@KMFDManic]

Your comment simply says my name, hehe:)

[@MessiahGaming1080p]

Hey man so you are the creator. What else do I need to do to get this to boot from usb, the Snes still needs to be flashed and fixed with hakchi first? And then this is bootable from you on the usb on it's own? I saw some guide I will follow but not sure he used usb and that seems really nice.

[@KMFDManic]

MessiahGaming1080p Not the creator, madmonkey is. I am part of a team, along with several other awesome people. And, I do my specialized part with its RetroArch interaction (RetroArch is my specialty), testing, smoothing out releases (hakchi1 USB-HOST) with testing and helping get fixes and features integrated, giving personal input, relaying feedback, and so on. You need an OTG Host Device. I recommend one that is similar in appearance to an octopus, has an OTG switch, along with at least a 32 gb flash drive that is fat32. You have my Core Set?

[@MessiahGaming1080p]

I just ordered 4 of the ones he have in his description, is that what you mean with usb host? I have not yet downloaded any core sets or anything. I need to check some tutorial on all stuff I need. As I understand it it's just a software mod nothing needs to be done to the console otherwise? Retroarch seems nice so that is what I will run on this one? That is a bundle of emulators right so I only need that and can then play most famous systems? Thanks for the help appreciate it man.

[@tahirahmed33]

Where can you buy the hackchi usb drive ?

[@MessiahGaming1080p]

Oh my god the Snes mini is so freaking cute, I can't wait to get the 3 I ordered! Thanks for this video, btw you mention SD card in the description, you have changed or added something more because I see you use USB not SD? And also when you put in the USB you always override the original games, so if you wanted those original games bundled with the original you had to put them in again on the USB? Thanks in advance and thanks for sharing, this is truly awesome. I love that Nintendo did this, releasing a new Snes.

[@karlcarpenter60]

hi can you re up the contents of the micro SD card you are using ./ its not there anymore thanks

[@MessiahGaming1080p]

I so agree with you, a big thank you to the guys making this possible, to only have 21 games is such a strange limitation from Nintento, at least give it some futureproof value and evolution as a machine. But I guess they just want a quick money grab and then back to virtual console on the Switch, grabbing money over and over for the same old games for each new console. I see no other reason for it than that tbh. So thank god there is ways and people dedicated to bring us what we want to have, excellent, awesome and just my childhood all over again down to the controlpads, the look of the machine except smaller. It almost feels unreal that I will have a Snes again in a few days. Another thing, how can you play the 4 player games on the Snes mini, is it even possible, are they releasing accessories for it or you have to play that with mods also? Thanks once again man, appreciate it!

[@deerocker4113]

I have the snes USA version when I go to the link to purchase it,it says left or right.Which one do I choose?

[@AnthonyDark]

can you access the original games with the usb plugged in?

[@TurbomanUK]

Anthony Dark nope.

[@matttherrien9608]

That's why you put the stock games on the drive as well so you can change games on the fly.

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

There seems to be compatibility issues with snes classics I have all the same equipment and usb will not boot. I have read there is 3 different versions of the US Snes kernels. From what I have been searching only a few people have made this work with videos posted on youtube. Anyone else have any luck with this usb mod? Reply

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

Gavin Horricks top man thanks for the responses and for the video can't wait to get Aladdin and busby and a few others I was a Sega kid mum couldn't afford both just for the fact there's al that empty space on the mini SNES why let it go to waste when I can add more I think that was £80 well spent tbh

[@TurbomanUK]

murph2898 So I forgot to load all the retroarch cores needed... went back to factory to give it another go and 3 hours later I can’t get USB booting working again. My advice... wait. This method was tough to get right and I think some luck was on my side. Hopefully ClusterM can work with the code and integrate so it is part of the main Hakchi 2 release.

[@murph2898]

Gavin Horricks no worries mate you done well to get this far

[@CellularFixation]

I don't understand it either. It's not a nesss or snezz. It's a N E S, S N E S or Super N E S. It's an abbreviation, not the name of the console.

[@rexapis2125]

JaniceWalker You must be American

[@xizor317]

What OTG Adaptor Is it?

[@Fix3rJ0e]

I love the design of the PAL and the Japanese SNES. Makes me wonder how us Americans got that ugly monstrosity that we ended up with.

[@mikaelafpetersens]

Jotaro Shima Difference in taste. Remember, the early 90's?

[@CAHSR2020]

Nintendo stated the change in design was due to American children routinely damaging their 8-bit NES devices by placing liquids on top which were knocked over and spilled inside.

[@downey2294]

I quite like the other design. this design is a bit boring to me.

[@AD-2020]

Not just the console but the controllers - Real nice look purple buttons, yeah...nah,. And the colored buttons made it easier in game - See how A is Red, B Yellow etc? Press the purple button NTSC! Oh right..

[@gwarriorfromhell]

@@AD-2020 most people who play games on a semi regular basis know which buttons are which, and don't have to look for color coding. However I dk agree that the multicolor buttons do look amazing on the SNES controller. Nostalgia still loves the purple ones as that's what I grew up with.

Do you actually have to use the hackchi software or can you simply boot off an external USB?

[@ethanviengkhou2794]

The otg is it right or left

[@TurbomanUK]

Ethan viengkhou it depends on which way the seller defines as being UP! It’s critical that you ensure that the FLATTER part of the micro USB can be identified in any images pointing away from you (if it was inserted) being up and then the plastic and USB A socket going to the right. Take your time, or order 2... they are cheap.

[@TurbomanUK]

Now using a microSD card to ensure no pressure or movement at the back when inserting and removing. It’s all good! Why some folks are looking for an SD card solution is beyond me when the USB one gives you that and more.
