Me neither till I started watching way too many Retroware / Game Sack / Game Chasers / Flea Market Madness videos on YouTube. I've been ruined.

Hahahahahaha. Straight to the friend zone.

Actually it's a toploader official NES console. They're treasured more than the traditional NES consoles these days because the toploading mechanism reduces/eliminates the issues with the carts not working (cart-blowing issues). And that's awesome. Imagine trying to play Mario (or any game for that matter) with a friend, and not being able to jump when *you* wanted to jump. Lol. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_Entertainment_System_(Model_NES-101)

Sure, but do you think maybe I might get a smile? From a girl?

Nice. These days, ever since the Haswell CPUs came out and eliminated the heat issues, the HTPC mini-builds are the way to go. Mine is silent, and no one even knows it's there behind my monitor. It also packs a wicked punch. I love it. I used to have more than I knew what to do with too, then I had three kids. Now I need more. ;) To be fair, we don't need more anything. A computer in the kitchen, a computer behind the TV, a computer in the game cabinet, a computer in the bedroom, a computer in the living room, a computer...we're all gonna die from radiation.

Hahahaha, really I'm just trying to convince myself that I don't want it. But you know I do.

NICE. If I got one do you think I'd actually be cool?

Yummy! Looks that that'll be a really nice box. What case are you getting?

Lolololol. That one raises a bit of a... why? ;)

Yeah, some great ideas there. The way it currently works is it will only update empty fields from the web, unless you tell it to overwrite. But obviously Plex's solution is superior. I don't see many people "updating" their metadata from the cloud at this point, so that hasn't really come up yet. Out of curiosity, what types of file names are you having trouble with, @AladdinSane?

Yup, ditto Zombeaver. :)

Welcome HobbitCy, and thanks for the purchase. Looks like Brad pretty much covered it but thought I'd say hello.

Lololololol.

Well guys, now PayPal has ended the relationship completely and permanently. No more PayPal payments. Boo hoo. I did just now add support for Alipay (primarily for China) and Bitcoin (yay!). I'm going to post the entire ridiculous statement from PayPal below: And for the record, we're not even breaking any part of their ridiculous "Acceptable Use Policy" to begin with. They're just too ignorant and lazy to do any research to come to a legitimate conclusion. One last time, good riddance PayPal.

Hi Roland, welcome! Currently, there is not a way to manually arrange the platform list, unfortunately. If you'd like, you can add it and vote for it on our issues list here: https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox Per #2, honestly I thought you could do that, but I looked and it appears you can't. It looks like we need more options there as well for specifying which images/videos show up underneath the box art. For #3, I think people typically set up different platforms in that scenario, but what you could do if you want to keep the same platform, is add a second Retroarch emulator (not the files, just the emulator record in LaunchBox), and configure each differently and pick between the two when you're adding games for Sega CD.

I'm not sure; I've only tested it on Windows 10. But maybe there was a driver update, as you alluded to? Other than that, I really have no idea.

Hi @itolson, no progress as of yet. I'm afraid I'm going to need a device to figure it out, and I can't afford that at this point. So honestly not sure how to proceed with it, unless someone wants to loan me a device to play with.

Yeah, the first time I plugged in a shiny new Xbox One controller to test with LaunchBox, I noticed that the axes had changed for the triggers. I had to add an option to disable the trigger-based scrolling because of that. I have no idea what Microsoft's reasoning was for that; it makes zero sense in my book. Oh, and it pisses me off. Did I mention that? ;) It is even more curious that it wasn't always that way. Great, Microsoft. Real Great.

Awesome, glad to know that all works.

Hi @dudechester, yes, that's the issue. I can research it myself eventually but we'll need to search around on the web to figure out what command line parameters are possible.

Ah, yes, that is true. Good point. We do need to warn people for that. I just added it to my list here: https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/236/warn-people-about-the-location-of-mame

Yeah, that stupid guide button. I blame Microsoft for botching that one. Getting access to it from anywhere is a huge pain.

Thanks guys, a fix to make this easier is coming. But for now, select the platform in the sidebar, Ctrl + A, delete key.

Oic, fullscreen mode then.

Hi @garbanzo, I plan to add videos directly into LaunchBox itself soon (in the right-hand sidebar). But I can see opening it externally as well, that makes sense. That'd be really easy to do too. Can you add this to the issues tracker here? http://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox I'm starting to use that more for everything now. :)
