When it comes to installing BIOS files, itвЂ™s a pretty easy process, so unless you specifically donвЂ™t think youвЂ™ll want to play Playstation 1 and Sega CD games ( tbh most Sega CD games arenвЂ™t that great / better than Genesis versionsвЂ¦ but being able to play PS1 games is a pretty sweet upgrade), IвЂ™d recommend doing this step right from the start. PCSX ReARMed = Playstation One games ( BIOS files required) MAME 2003 Xtreme = Arcade & NEO GEO games ( BIOS files required)

Mednafen PCE Fast = Turbo Grafx-16, PC Engine ( BIOS files only needed for CD games) PicoDrive = Sega 32x, Game Gear, Sega CD ( BIOS files only needed for Sega CD games to work)

Genesis Plus GX = Genesis/Mega Drive, Game Gear, Master System, Sega CD ( BIOS files only needed for Sega CD games to work) Gambatte = Game Boy, Game Boy Color games Snes9x2018 (Snes9x) = Super Nintendo games

If youвЂ™d like to get your Sega Mini setup to play games on all the consoles that I have mine setup for, here are all the KMFD Cores youвЂ™ll need to download & install while youвЂ™re in the KFMD Mod Hub section ( that video above shows this process, it just doesnвЂ™t show for every core/console listed below, but the process is the same). Firstly - Instal All the Cores YouвЂ™ll Need So, hereвЂ™s everything IвЂ™ve learned about hacking my Sega Mini so far, taking my system from something that had 2 controllers and 41 games when it arrived in a box at the start of Wave 1 quarantine, to something that has over 900 games + the ability to have even more, on a wide range of retro consoles ( my current setup is: Atari 2600, Atari 7800, Nintendo, Master System, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Genesis/Mega Drive, Super Nintendo, Turbo Grafx-16, Sega CD, Sega 32x, MAME, Neo Geo, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo 64, Playstation 1) by whatever Wave of quarantine weвЂ™re at now.

Related to that, if I hadnвЂ™t slowly worked my way up to adding Playstation 1 games ( which, it turns out, play quite well on the Sega Mini), I wouldnвЂ™t have ended up spending money on a new controller that worked nicely for playing Super Nintendo games, but doesnвЂ™t really work for PS1 games. Like all things related to hacking your mini console, thereвЂ™s probably a Youtube video that will hold your hand through all the steps and hereвЂ™s a good one for getting Hakchi installed and setup:Д«ut everything above IвЂ™ve already said before - what I wanted to do with this post is put down in one place all the things IвЂ™ve discovered/figured out since first getting into hacking my Sega Mini, as there were a bunch of things that I wish I would have just started off doing/knowing.ДЇor example, rather than slowly working my way up to incorporating an external USB drive because I thought it would be too complicated ( itвЂ™s not), I would have just gone down that road right from the beginning. So I highly recommend just going with Hakchi.

Perhaps Project Lunar has since added more features, but, for me, Hakchi has been a breeze to use and I canвЂ™t think of anything I need it to do that it doesnвЂ™t do. And, even better, Hakchi already had way more built-in functionalities, like a file sorting system and more, ready to go.

And after finding a suggestion on a forum to try using Parallels to pretend my Mac was a PC for hacking purposes, I quickly discovered that Hakchi was just as easy to setup as Project Lunar had been, if not exponentially easier as I was no longer using that slow-ass Virtual Box.

If youвЂ™ve ever poked around online about hacking a mini console, then you probably are already aware that the other solution out there comes from Hakchi. On top of that, I was on a Mac and the instructions I followed involved using Virtual Box to pretend I was on a PC and that ended up being extremely slow, eventually leading to syncing problems and me having to restore my Mini back to its factory settings and searching the internet for another solution. I originally started my вЂmini hacking / retro video gameвЂ™ hobby with Project Lunar back in March 2020, and that hack was mostly successful in regards to adding any Genesis / Mega Drive game I wanted, but there were limitations to how many games could be added and in setting up different consoles ( like NES and SNES) as there was no file sorting system in Project Lunar at the time.
