Description

Unsure where this should live, but thought I'd make an issue for it....

@KMFDManic said....
I understand this is a little unorthodox as far as location to ping you. But, it will probably get your attention fast enough! In any case, N64 is one hell of a fun system to play via RetroArch and its various Cores! One little side project I have worked on over the last month, which really worked out well, is remapping EVERY N64 Game, so that they can run without need of analog controllers! I did several videos showcasing this in action. In execution, these would be remap files, that one selects via RetroArch, Settings, Controls, Load Remap File! The nice thing is, as long as you don't "save" remap, or have option to autoload remap on next load, they will not affect anything, moment you leave said game. So, it might be nice to potentially start a "remap" branch or fork, and get N64 accounted for, as well as other "analog" driven systems, in the foreseeable future. I already have close to 400 done, along with 2 other great individuals, who helped with the project. The way it will display in my Release, will be like this:
remaps_n64

Video demonstration of it in action:

Any other recent N64 Videos also utilize this feature!

Thanks:) Looking forward to your thoughts! I am planning on posting these remaps on 1-1-21, as I have other projects to finish up!
