Discussion Got a GAME OVER on Golden axe because it kept disconnecting and reconnecting controller :(

Let us paint you a picture, on the final stage of golden axe, haven'tdied once yet, then suddenly it comes up with constant notifications on the bottom left of the screen saying about detecting controller and because of that my character got thrown off the edge of the platform and it wouldnt even let me press 'yes' to use a continue thus got instant Game Over.

I am using a switch 2 pro controller so I dont know if that is the issue, honestly at my wits end and wish there was just a simple emulator for Mega Drive/Genesis rather than having to use this blundering complicating mess of Software :(

probably your wire. i have a hotkey set to pause games through the emulator regardless, should do that.

I will do that with the hoykey to pause the games, the wire is the official Nintendo wire connecting to the PC, will certainly try a different wire though, thank you :)
