Press more than one key at a time?

[Droobie]

Hey fellas - I did a search before posting, but didn't find anything that worked.

I'm running some emulators on my Sprint Mogul, but i'm running into problems because I can't touch more than one key on the keypad without it cancelling the prior key. Makes it tough to have Mario run around the level...

I tried a fix from some dude on the forums for the 6700, but it doesn't have any effect on my 6800. Does anyone know of a cab or even a registry fix that will allow for more than one key to be pressed at a time on the 6800? Thanks in advance!

That's one of the big problems with 6800s... can't run NES emulators fully because of inability to press simultaneous keys. Wish there was a solution for this, I have yet to see one.

That is truly unfortunate. I've already seen an incredibly large volume of clever work on this site - perhaps I just need to be patient enough to allow someone the time to figure it out.

Im pretty sure its a hardware limitation, I don't see any way around it.

I'd have to agree... but with the geniuses around here never say never...

It's not a terrible thing, I guess. I have a fair amount of RPG's to stick with.

just use 'pocketnester' and enable fullscreen mode. then you can use the hardware d-pad with the onscreen a/b buttons.

it's kinda goofy, but so is playing mario without a proper controller

wont a bluetooth controller work too?

search for 6700kbfix.cab... I was told it may work for the mogul.

Nvm, found it: http://emulamer.com/6700kbfix.html

This was the one I tried this morning. Unfortunately, it didn't work. In fact, it locked up my mogul

Thanks for the info, though!

You're right. Although it's a bit goofy and difficult to get used to the d-pad on the right hand w/buttons on the left hand, it works. Thanks for the tip.
