Hi,

I am currently working on a very detailed RBI ROM and have purchased one RetroPad to test out the ratings for the players etc.  I hope to purchase a second one if multiple people can confirm that two RetroPads hooked up to the same computer will work for two player action.  I am using FCE Ultra version 0.98.10 as the emulator.  I figure both should work since (I think) most online RBI players use these controllers.

Thanks for any help confirming this.


ps- I hope this is the correct forum for this post.  It didn't seem to be proper for Online RBI.

I'm sure someone here can help...but remember this...there is nothing proper around here

They're USB, right? No reason I can think of that two wouldn't work.

I can't speak for the RetroPad, but I do have two USB Gravis GamePad Pros that I use simultaneously, and I've never had a problem with using both, other than occasionally mixing them up when I'm defining controls on an emulator (accidentally mapping player 1 to controller 2).
