Hi Everyone,
I've Been Out Of the Scene For A Few Months, Now That I Come Back, I See The Break Out Box out! Great!

My Question Now Is:

Can I Use A Powered USB Hub On The USB port Of The GP2x And Connect The Joysticks There? Or Do I Need To Buy The Break Out Box To Have 2 Players On GP2x?

Also, Does Every Emu now Supports USB Joysticks? or Just A Few?

Thanks!

Thanks! :) So, The Break Out Box Is Not Really Needed If I Have the Video Cable And A Powered USB Hub! I Just Saved 50 bucks! :) Thanks Yaustar

The USB host goes through the EXT port rather then mini-usb IIRC.

Well, you can build your own breakout box/USB host box which a lot of people have done that does both USB and TV out.
