How To Setup A Light Gun Controller On RetroPie - RetroPie Guy Raspberry Pi Tutorial

Got this set up, but my cursor won't move with the wimote, buttons work though. Anyone know how to fix?

I followed this tutorial but my a button and the trigger on my wii remote won’t register with retropie, any advice?

Can you mod the arcade1up T2 so it can play a bunch of other light gun arcade games?

Does aimtrak work from retropie too?

What's they keyboard you are using?

Could you play hunt or nes light gun game with this? @Retro Gaming Guy

Want to do this to my arcade cabinet. Can you have 2 light guns?

is it possible to operate the dolphinbar and the wii controller with a raspberry pi 3?

hi, i followed your messages. I detect the keys but not the movement. when I enter the settings Mame does not detect the shot button. i am using a controller with motion plus. thank you

Can i use 2 guns? Thank you

Hey Retropie guy, I have my mode on mode 2, but for some reason when I go to configure my official wii remote in the settings for this game page, the A button and the B button do not work. I tried my wii remote on my laptop with the dolphin emulator and it was fully functional but doesn’t work correctly on my pi, any idea why?

Nice tutorial!

Is there a way to adjust the "aim". So "in theory" one could line up the sights with the cursor?

What RetroPie theme is that with all the comics!? It’s so dope. Thanks for a great video! 🙌

Can you use 2 normal joysticks and have the wiimote hooked into another slot and have all 3 setup at once?

Hey Retropie Guy! I have a personal arcade I built with 4 player controls. I'd like to set up my arcade with light gun games as well, but I have a few questions!
1. Do I need to be operating the 64 bit Retropie or is the 32 bit version compatible with the Wii remote?
2. Like I said I already have 4 joysticks/buttons set as player 1-4. Is it possible to set a light gun up as player 5 and player 6, and still be able to play the games as player 1 and player 2?
3. I seriously have so many questions...is it possible to get your email? I have been following many of your videos, and you've been a HUGE help...and I appreciate it! Thanks!

👍

And another question, can you make your trackball work when you have a dolphin bar plugged in the system? Thanks a lot

Is it possible to run two wiimotes with two dolphinbars together? I tried but only one works, the other one doesn’t have all the buttons. Thanks

It works with 2 guns/controllers?

Hey, any idea why the cursor stops for a second when i pull the trigger? its making it too hard to play but have no idea if i can fix this. Cheers :)

Do you need to configure your Wii remote for this to work?

Wow! Thanks so much for this tutorial. I created a 4 player stand up cabinet for my raspberry pi but I've been trying to figure out light gun games as the final addition to it.

I have an older raspberry pi 3, do you still a compatible card? I heard you say you sell the keyboards, what about the dolphin bar? I'd like to support your company.

Great video. Thanks!

No matter what I do I can't get the A and B buttons to register on mame menu and ideas on how to do this everything else registers

Do you just sync second remote and do you need to set up second remote as well or just 1

It's ridiculous that you have to buy 2 dolphin bars to play with 2 players though.

using your 512gb gb build. Tab (wireless keyboard, tried a wired keyboard too) isn't opening the menu in most games under the light gun section. I also tried Area 51(psx) and can't get the menu to pop up when hitting tab

Is the sensor bar a mayflash dolphin bar wireless or wired ?

Does the light-gun only work for MAME? Or would it also work as a blaster for NES roms?

I can use that light gun to play duck hunt

That Pistolero image is GREAT for this it was the only reason I wanted to started using my pi4 again..and this is a lot cheap options if you wanna do light gun gaming.Great tutorial as always

So everything was going smooth but when I try to enter the trigger button and A button it will not map in the game

Can it be used for 2 player?

The third party ones worked for me on recal box but I needed two separate sensors For two players.

My problem is it sees the wiimote as player 3

I haven't tried light guns, yet, but at the moment, I can't even figure out why settings changes I make aren't being saved, and in some cases, why some games don't even have controls setup. I can't even get trackball, and spinner games working correctly, in RetroPie. Watched tons of vids, to no avail. LOL

I tried using two light guns but for some reason player 2 doesn't work. I have both controllers mapped but when I try pressing start for player 2 nothing happens. I have 2 different dolphin bars so its not that....Any ideas how what it might be?

Great tutorial! It's my very first time doing this and I want to know if the USB bar must be connected to my rasp Pi 4 or could it be on the USB port of my led TV?

CHD files. How do you get chd files to work? Been trying for a little bit and none of the CHD files work. Can you provide a tutorial on how to get it to work?

I have tried to install solenoid in the holster, it will feel recoil, but I can’t make bursts

Got mine working. What about games with a 2nd button ( special weapon in some games) top button is a bit awkward. Any ideas? What about the nunchuck?

Would the cabella gun/rifle accessory work instead of the pistol accesory?

Can you use 2 lightguns at once? Would it require two bars?

If i build this into a cabinet, will glass/plexiglass in front of the bar interfere? or should i connect it to the top of the cabinet?

you have great helpful content man, thank you

The problem I have with this is that the controller interprets the exact bar position as the center of the screen and the shooting is anything but intuitive :(

I know OEM wiimotes are prefered. But only have access to 3rd party controllers. Will those work?

Will it work with a home theater projector?

Thank you for this! I have a question: do you have to redo the configuration everytime you start the same game up? Or is it a ‘one and done’ as long as you don’t update the Pi?

What about Playstation games? Does it work with those

Hey mate nice video, what default mame emu do you use for gun games. As they all have different menus when you hit tab. Is it mame 2003? Do you use any other emus for light gun arcade on the pi for light guns with the wii?
