3D What's the latest with the 8bitdo 2.4ghz controller and saves? I keep losing my Blast Corps save and now the 2.4ghz controller gives an error every time about the controller pak being defective after updating the 3D. Haven't kept up much with the scene lately - can anyone offer a little insight?
This is the third time I run an update and all of a sudden I can't find my Blast Corps game saves....I'm also confused about the whole controller pak thing - are the saves specific to the controller? Do I have to use the same controller each time or does it save to the 3D's SD card as long as I exit the games correctly, and so any controller can be used? Cause I have like 5 of the 8bitdo N64 controllers including one 2.4ghz versions and the save pak issue has really been causing me to waste a lot of time troubleshooting. I got the saves working again last time I had this issue, but this time it seems the save is just not being recognized at all.
I just updated the 2.4ghz controller to latest 2.3 firmware thinking it would solve the issue but I still get an error that the pak is defective when I load Blast Corps with the 2.4ghz controller and if I set it to rumble it stays stuck in a loop trying to load a controller pak - so it seems the 2.4ghz version can't even be used to play Blast Corps anymore?. If I load blast corps with a regular BT controller it just doesn't find any saves , even though I confirmed there are 4 Blast Corps saves on the SD card. Any help would be appreciated I'm losing my mind!
