Additional features

Gamepad mode

The gamepad mode allows using your console as an USB HID gamepad.

Press START, then select Tools -> Gamepad mode to activate.

Note that, due to the console’s non-standard button layout, only games and programs which support custom controller button bindings should be expected to work correctly.
