Hi @SentaiBrad, I've seen a few topics pop up in relation to cheat support for various emulators/RetroArch cores and thought that this might be a helpful tutorial to tackle at some point. Back when I used my modded Wii for emulation, I used to love the cheat support for non-arcade platforms (I have UniBios for Neo Geo and arcade games have infinite coins!).
I had cheats working for NES, SNES, and Mega Drive on the standalone emulators Fceu GX, Snes9x GX, and Genesis Plus GX. Since I've made the switch to RetroArch I've never figured out how to add cheat support. It opens up a whole new world of gaming if youself and you buddies can get through Contra Hard Corps like an arcade game with infinite lives!
Any chance of a tutorial? If it's a short topic to cover, perhaps you could include Retro Achievements support in RetroArch too as it is also an extra RA feature people may enjoy ?
