Cardputer Game Station now has support for BLE controllers

 

The whole reason for my latest projects was to integrate and use controllers with Cardputer Game Station. It supports emulation of some of my favorite consoles and thus their games.

Firmware is also posted on M5Stack M5Burner

• Atari 2600
• Atari 7800
• GameBoy
• GameBoy Color
• NES

I have some of the original consoles myself and a collection of games.  I enjoy playing these on the go! 

D-pad support is implemented, so use the d-pad on the Xbox controller.   Set your controller to pairing, and this version of Cardputer Game Station should pair with it.  Also works with other BLE (not Classic Bluetooth though) controllers.  I also have a cute little BLE controller I bought from AliExpress for cheap.

Note: Classic Bluetooth is not supported by ESP32-S3.  The newer ESP32's that have Bluetooth only do BLE.
