Project Lunar feature list

• Add your own selection of SEGA Mega Drive/Genesis roms to your console with use on the stock UI

• Full NAND backups before any customisation
• RetroArch bundled with Genesis GX Plus & PicoDrive. (MS,GG,MD,32X, MEGA CD support) (Also capable of playing other consoles by adding additional RetroArch cores)
• Performance tweaks and boosts (fix lag issues) (1.0ghz > 1.344ghz, ZRAM compression, DRAM SWAP)
• NAND (console only) and USB support
• OTG support
• exFat, NTFS, FAT32 filesystem support
• Extended gamepad compatibility
• USB2 and USB3 device support
• Customisable boot menu with built-in additional option menu & network manager.
• Ability to autoboot to selected boot items. (i.e. boot directly to stock UI)
• Additional third-party controller support
• Automatic Error recovery system (automatically reload to bootmenu if Stock E error occurs)
• Launch boot menu or RetroArch from the Stock UI
• EmulationStation support (optional mod package, USB only)
• Fix stock scanlines by toggling smoothing off within stock emulator

• SSH/SFTP via RDNIS support
• Boot menu, splashscreen and music are all customisable
• Additional mod package support

Features to come in 1.1 (or) future rolling update

• Folder support. Technically we can implement folders as of 1.0, however we want to do it right and integrate it as seamless as possible.
• Launch different console games from stock UI
• Custom command executors per game. Again, executors are available within 1.0 meaning that you can run any emulator, app or command from the stock UI. This can be done via scripts on the command line however desktop integration will be available in 1.1
• Bluetooth support
• Desktop app sync via Wi-Fi/Ethernet. This is also available as of 1.0 but we want to improve it. It is also capable of handling multiple consoles on the same network.

bottom line you can add Genesis games to the stock UI currently. Everything else will go in the retroarch bundled core (MS, GG, CD, 32X, Dreamcast, etc)

Sounds like in the future you might be able to add CD and 32X into the stock UI though I swear I recall them mentioning that at some point

Wait, the Genesis Classic has WiFi??

---

that means more it supports USB wifi adaptors

I'm slowly adding games in because you can only do them one by one. Almost done with B's!

---

so the genesis mini is worth getting now (if it wasn't before)?

---

even without this it was already the best of the mini consoles!

ok... but this wasn't nintendo

so it was bound to lower in price!

---

I tested it this morning after adding more games and discovered the limit is about 87 games before the main menu starts to freak out and crash

luckily folders are in update 1.01 so I'm going to wait for that

---

although I did enjoy replaying the various genesis batman games last night

(Batman Forever doesn't work it's super glitched out)

---

Yeah, Im waiting for folders and the ability to boot games in retroarch from the main UI, both of which are said to come in the next update

Have really been looking forward to this project. Just holding out on version 1.1 before I start hacking. folders and being able to start gamegear/master system games from stock UI is a necessity

---

I am also waiting for true folder support before digging in--I've gotten plenty of practice on an SNES Classic in the meantime, which has been nice, but I look forward to the OC'd Mini especially since my SNESC doesn't seem capable of handling any overclocking.
