- N64 controller emulation (up to four controllers at once!).
- Rumblepak emulation.
- Mempak emulation with four selectable banks. Technically unlimited.
- Transferpak emulation. Put Gameboy ROMS on an SD Card!
- N64 mouse emulation. Use a USB Mouse!
- N64 Randnet emulation. Use a USB keyboard!
- Configurable deadzones and sensitivity from the N64 Console.
- True dual analog sticks with GoldenEye and Perfect Dark.
- SD card driver with FATFS support for storage/backup of Gameboy ROMS, mempaks etc.
- A single hardwired controller interface for ultimate hacking.

- More inbuilt USB controller drivers. (PS3, Aftermarket Xbox One, OG Xbox, improved Generic HID).
- USB Bluetooth stack.
- Mouse/Keyboard input for controllers.
- Gamecube controller support.
- Better debug output (Flashing LED, SD card logging)
- Bluetooth 8bitdo/compatible controllers via the 8BitDo Wireless USB Adapter
- Wired 8bitdo controllers when they are started in X-input mode.
- Xbox S/X Wired
- Xbox one Wired (Genuine / PDP)
- Xbox 360 Wired
- Xbox 360 Wireless (Via PC USB Receiver)
