how to put wonderswan emulator on reteropie

I wrote this in hope someone who is trying to get ws and wsc to work properly finds this post instead of having to look everywhere like I did.Building the Ultimate ‘Nostalgia Machine!’ – Part 1 (research)īuilding the Ultimate ‘Nostalgia Machine!’ – Part 2 (practise set up and dry run)īuilding the Ultimate ‘Nostalgia Machine!’ – Part 3 (Enter player 2!)īuilding the Ultimate ‘Nostalgia Machine!’ – Part 4 (More Adventures in Retro Land!) Other buttons still work in both modes but in each mode you will only need those I have written. Make sure it is on AUTO as it will adapt the controls each time you use select to rotate (I guess ON forces portrait controls and OFF forces landscape controls). Theres an option called change rotation controls, or something like that. While in game, press hotkey+X to bring up RGUI and go to options. This makes the select button-rotation function to work properly at all times.Īnd about the controls, ws and wsc have this interesting control scheme where in landscape you play with the X-pad and the A/B buttons, and in portrait you play with both the X-pad and Y-pad. The solution is to make it so the ws and wsc cores have the aspect ratio set to 22 (core provided). So I was on 1:1PAR and then I see the portrait image stretched, press select and now is portrait but rotated, press select again and now is landscape stretched and also rotated. The thing is, wonderswan and wscolor cores behave weird with the 1:1PAR aspect ratio, because this cores have the select button binded to switch between landscape or portrait. This assures the game will be pixel perfect no matter the resolution output (1080p, 720p, 480p or whatever). I have all my cores to Aspect Ratio: 21 (1:1 PAR) and also Integer Scale ON.

Then I visited this links for more info on the topic:īut I just discovered it is way more easy than playing with per rom cfg files, or tweaking aspect ratios.

I wanted to include WS and WSC games on my RetroPie system so I watched some videos about the system and when I saw the system could be rotated (some games landscape, some others portrait, Klonoa game using both modes) I immediately asked myself: 'how am I going to make a config for this thing? per rom config files?'
