Gamestation Pro - Trying out the 8 Bit Widgets Coupler and some more dual joystick custom .cfgs

  • After making the first batch of dual joystick .cfg flies for the My Arcade Atari Gamestation Pro someone wanted to send me a coupler they made for playing games that use both GSP joysticks. I had many games mapped for my PlayStation Classic controllers, but I decided to tweak some of them to use this dual joystick layout. Some of the .cfg files in the download have already been put out there. Some are new. I put in a text file this time called instructions that describe how I mapped the controls for each game. It reminds me of the days of playing Atari 5200 Robotron and Space Dungeon with the controller holders that they came with. Game controller configurations for Black Widow, Battle Zone, Chack & Pop, Forgotten Worlds, Front Line, Heavy Barrel, Kozmik Kroozr, Monte Carlo, Night Driver, Robotron, Smash T.V., Sprint 2 (sprint2a), Super Bug, Timber, Toobin', Total Carnage, Ultra Tank, Vindicators Part II, Wacko, Wild Western and Xybots. All mapped for dual joystick style play. The 4-way gear shift games are a bit difficult to get used to. These are .cfg files for Mame ROMs for adding games using the Micro SD card slot on the Gamestation Pro.

    Best part of waking up at 6 am from insomnia I’ve had all year in 2023. This is awesome, thank you 🙏.

    Crazy, I was just looking at the GSP to buy and watching overview vids and looking at that new controller with some skepticism, as the first thing I thought was its too narrow, needs a wider base to hold onto due to the torque of the stick, and I already was plotting on how to build a wide base device to hold the controller, and lo and behold I just saw your vid showing this DUAL Controller base holder!!!
    That's awesome, I don't have to custom make anything.
    But what the what?! Battlezone?! Man I need to get that.
    Thanks for the info!!

    I bought one of these to play games with my old man, I haven't Updated the Firmware or added any roms to the SD yet but I Definitely want to get the proper arcade Bezels set up. and this Robotron holder just like my 7800 back in the day

    Thank you for your great work on this! I downloaded the dual-stick cfg files but am confused about where they need to be added on the SD card. Can you assist me with some guidance?

      If you already added you MAME games and ran them at least once there should be a folder in the games folder called cfg. The new .cfg files should go in there. I just delete the old ones and copy in the new ones. Of you don't like how they work you can delete them and run the game again and it will go back to the default settings... However they have each game mapped for controls.

    Good video-just subbed. Do you have a .stl file for that mount? That looks sweet.

      Someone on one of the AtariAge forums sent it to me after I already made some dual stick .cfg files. Someone wanted Robotron but I kept going. Figured I would make a few more after he sent me one. I had PS Classic .cfgs for some of the games already but I figured I would make some more this way.
