Wii Remote Light Gun On RetroPie | How To Setup & Map Games | RetroPie Guy Setup Guide

In this video I walk through a couple different light gun setup processes when mapping your light gun for different games on RetroPie.

Check out all the best Wii emulation products below...

I used a Nintendo Wii Remote w/ a light gun casing and the Mayflash Dolphin Bar.

Watched when premiered. It gives a true representation of the same quality picture on retro resolutions.

Side art/bezels looking pretty dope. I'm still learning how to turn it on for all game systems. Using batocera.. cool video btw 😎 👌🏾

Nice dont forget to flip dipswitches and use the calibrate option if the game has it.Makes a big difference in some games

NICE VIDEO CAN YOU PLEASE DO A VIDEO OF HOW SET UP 2 PLAYERS PLEASE? GRETTINGS FROM DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

[jcougar]

Do these steps apply NES, SNES, GENESIS,

[FinleysWorld]

Does this save the setting every time? So you don’t have to do this every time

I am doing everything as you are showing but i can't make it work on the movement. The same method i followed on retroarch on PC and is working great but not on raspbery pi4. i am using my own image. And at the retroarch settings in controls i only have the gun icon without the label "gun start" "gun reload" etc....
When i am inside retroarch menu movement is working great but if i go inside the game is not working.
How can i fix it?

can you explain why the 3 games you tried, despite all using the same emulator within retroarch, have to be configured differently?? also why are the settings not kept for each game anyway as the settings you are changing are global settings, not game specific settings arent they? also how does one know out of which of the 3 different methods you have to use on a specific game? seems very convoluted to do this for every single lightgun game

Can u do a how to video for time crises with the Wii remote

[MartinBailey]

my retroarch does not look like this - its the old style one. So when I select+X into that on Alien 3 .. then Settings > Input I dont get Port 1 Binds but Port 1 Controls and there is nothing Lighgun specifc in there? Do I need to get later version? I'm running RetroPie on RPi 4 4GB

[Clarence_x]

Why does it have to be usb 3.1? Will this not work with a zero2w?

[vascoernesto]

Do you have to set it up for every game?

[SlicerJen]

Do you save game mapping or do you save override?

Nice video buddy do you have a link where to get those light guns I like the look of those kinda tired of my old ones thx

[ALMGHTY.PEANUT]

After I bind keys to the wiimote The targeting cursor only moves with my controller, not with the wiimote. What part am I missing? Light gun isn't an option on anything I try and it's not working except the buttons mapped. I am also unable to map the A button or trigger button nor can I use them when binding 😔

[alevcimen]

Just wondering bud does the RP4 keep the settings or do we have to do this fix every time you want to play? Thanks

[Spaniard]

I have been trying to pair my Wiimotes to my RetroPie on a Pi 4 but I just get a Socket read error every time I try to pair it. If I got the Mayflash sensor bar that's in your Wii products link, will that allow my Wiimotes to pair to it instead and be used in RetroPie without having to do the painful Wiimote pairing process from their docs?

I have a raspberry pi3, dolphin bar and 2 wiimotes. The dolphin bar is synced and on mode 2 with the 2 outer lights on the wiimote on. I cannot get the cursor to move on any light gun games but all other functions of the wiimote work. The cursor/cross hair works with the d-pad but not while pointing the light gun/wiimote at the screen. Any suggestions? Is there a setting I'm missing? Went into the game menus and I can't get any game to work other than using the d-pad or joystick and pulling the trigger on the wiimote.

[spyghetti]

Have you successfully mapped two guns on the pi4 through retroarch? Just curious if it can be done.

I have a version 35 batocera running on a PC. It is a full bootable PC so there is no configurations for windows or anything. I have one may flashlight bar and a genuine Wii remote, and it works perfectly for all the games, meme and consuls. I am ordering another mayflash and lightbar because I would like to do two players. Are there any tricks or problems anyone’s having with 2 mayflash bars and two controllers?
