@ArcadeTesty Pork and Akai both are playable but have noticeable slowdown/stuttering because the cpu maxes out.

Hi there,
I got it to work with recalbox 9.1 on my pi4
Adapter type is rgbpi (means mode 6 vga666). This leaves gpio18 and 19 for sound.
The mcp23017 has to be used with i2c0! This means pins 27 and 28 (gpio0 and gpio1).
Sadly the mk_arcade_joystick_rpi module in 9.1 recalbox is hard coded to i2c1 gpio2 and gpio3This will interfere with the video sync usage of these gpio pins!
So you have to patch the source file to i2c0 pins and build the module.
Then you can copy the ko module file to your 9.1 Pulstar installation and simply use the recalbox.conf with

Hello @marwien ,
Do you still have the mk_arcade_joystick_rpi.ko module compiled for rpi4 64bit?
Or can you give me more detailed info how you make it works? I am loosing my mind on it
Hi can you please help and let me know how you got the joysticks working, it works fine on RGB-pi OS4 but can’t get it working on Recalbox cheers
Are you using controls via usb or the jamma? I think I used a keyboard and mouse to get into the settings first and from there got Recalbox to recognized my GP2040 board via usb. I don’t use the jamma for controls, too many shortcuts to remember unfortunately.
Hi yes I am using jamma, would a USB to jamma converter like this help and completely forget about this module?
I don’t want to change my setup from jamma to USB as two other systems rely on it. (Pandora and a light gun game both jamma)
End of the day what I am trying to achieve is get daphne games working on my raspberry pi, daphne can run straight on Linux too so I as long as I can get this controller working with it then I can download and install daphne

To add Daphne does not work with RGB-pi OS4

It does actually. You need to install RGB pi extras. It adds the Daphne core.

Hi thank you but I can’t find any information on this whatsoever, there is info on Hypeseus Singe on google but nothing about RGB-pi or ports extra , where did you get this information please and instructions please@Baz Baz Actually it's in the official ports pack on the RGB Pi OS now. They guy who originally put them in RGB Pi Extras (KEV) collab'd with the RGB PI OS creator to get it working and in the official OS release. It uses the Hypseus Singe emulator and is available under ports.

I did but they were asking for a serial number which I don’t have

Welp after having this board for months I decided to use the pcb feet and included screws. Bad design, screws are way to close to jamma edge and fried my audio amplifier on the board. Only able to get sound out through audio jack on pi.

Looks really nice, seems they are all sold out on the eBay link, are they still available?

I made Raspberry Pi TO JAMMA Interface. It is compatible with VGA666/ MCP23017 and also works on RGB-Pi OS4
This board is compatible with Raspberry Pi 3B+ & 4.
It has Cooling fan to prevent the Raspberry Pi from overheating, kick harness and amp & volume knob. And Les Lock makes it easy to mount this board in a cabinet

Love miine. Loved it so much that I ordered two more from Crown Arcade shop, trouble is when UPS turned up at my house they wanted $244 in 'fees' for tariffs so I told the guy I wouldn't pay it. UPS walked off with my two boards so I guess I'm out of luck, how that isn't theft I don't know.

Yes there is a toggle switch for stereo/mono
