Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One amazing collection to turn your Nvidia Shield-TV into a retro gaming
timewarp! This pack includes arcade games and major systems from the late 1970's
to the early 2000's. This a second release with major improvements in scope of
the collection and in terms of overall asthetic. Each system was given a second
dive, and I have expanded most systems to around 100 of the best games.
(excluding lynx with a limited game release, some have more or less).
MAME has been given a lot of love by splitting out genres and decades into menu
wheels, since Hyperspin Android does not support sublists at this time.
The system preview videos feel more like trailers for the featured games with
the game title prominently displayed. With each video at around 5 minutes long
you can feel free to let it sit in attract mode on any system wheel!

Inside of the archive is a hyperspin folder which contains all the settings,
media and rom files to launch Hyperspin on Android Shield-TV.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Install Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Extract these files to the root of a flash drive, or to the root directory of
the internal storage of your shield device. You should see a Hyperspin folder
inside the "root" or "base" of the drive structure. Thats it for extraction!
All required APK's are inside \Hyperspin\emulator\ except for Hyperspin APK,
but getting from the PLAY store allows updates.
Install using the supplied APK in emulators folder:
Dolphin Emulator
Install these required programs from the play store:
Hyperspin
Retroarch
Mupen64PLUS FZ
Yaba Sanshiro
PPSSPP standard version
Install required Retroarch Cores for each system:
Atari Lynx - Handy
MAME - 2010
NES - Nestopia
SNES - SNES9x
GB+ and GBC+ - mGBA (under gameboy advance)
GAMEBOY Advance - VBA NEXT
Dreamcast - Reicast
SMS, Genesis - Genesis Plus GX
Playstation - PCSX reARMed
Configure RetroArch:
Enable advanced options under Settings->User Interface->Show Advanced Settings
Enable bios in rom folder at Settings->Saving->System Files are in Content Dir
Setting up a button to exit directly out of retroarch makes it more useable.
I would recommend configuring your hotkeys in Retroarch in a similar fashion:
Enable Hotkeys : Right Joy Click
Menu : Left Joy Click
Exit : Back Button
Load State : L Bumper
Save State : R Bumper
The other hotkeys are very useful but not completely required:
Rewind : L Trigger
Fast Forward : R Trigger
Volume + : Dpad up
Volume - : Dpad down
Savestate + : Dpad right
Savestate - : Dpad left
Configure controllers in all previously mentioned emulators! Retroarch is the
easiest to set up controllers, some require more than one layout such as the
N64 for some of the FPS games which had strange control schemes.
For specific configuration of the Dolphin emulator I would suggest setting the
forced clock speed to 65% under general and turn on all the checkboxes. Under
graphics options enable vulkan and at the bottom of the page under hacks turn
everything on except immediate xfb. With these settings I am able to play soul
calibur at full speed. Only other game that needs adjustments from this is
Simpsons Hit'n Run which needs slightly lower clock rate to run at a playable
speed.

Secondary Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Creating this pack was a labor of love to send out to the gaming community. These
games deserve to be enjoyed by everyone, and to be kept relevant and accessible
for future generations.
I scoured the web for people referencing their favorite games in each system,
or relied on top lists and critic rankings. It was a tiring process to filter
out all of the working titles and the correct files for each emulator, but once
complete it was spectacular to see all the systems dancing together perfectly.
I hope this can be enjoyed, as is, without hassle.
All bios files are present within the rom folders. Configuring Retroach to look
for system files in the content directory solves bios related setup on these xml
lists. The other stand-alone emulators do not require a bios file to function.
Other devices running android may be compatible, in those cases you will be able
to find hyperspin on the app store and install it. If it does not show up, you
are likely not using a compatible device.
This pack is meant for Hyperspin Android but the ROM files can used in rom
browsers that scan folders such as DIG or Arc browser. Dealing with importing the
media files is something I'll leave to you to figure out! Those solutions would
import their own files for the most part and take up more space.
