Description

Something weird happens and the game doesn't progress. It doesn't freeze it just gets stuck on that screen.

Research direction

Start by reproducing Diddy Kong Racing reaching the Controller Pack screen, then compare the behavior with the linked historical Mupen64Plus report. The issue names no source files or tests, so trace the emulator path reached at that screen. Done means the game progresses past the screen without getting stuck.
