To prep for play, hook up the Fruit Jam to power, video, audio, controllers, and micro SD card.
Plug in the following:
- Fruit Jam USB C Power & Data port to USB C power adapter
- Fruit Jam DVI-D Video Output to monitor/TV HDMI input via HDMI cable
- Fruit Jam Stereo Headphone output to headphones or powered speakers via 3.5mm stereo TRS cable
- USB gamepad to Fruit Jam USB 1 or USB 2 port (some controllers seem to prefer port 2)
Classic Controllers
For two player games, you can optionally plug in a Wii/NES/SNES Classic Controller.
With the Fruit Jam powered off, plug in a STEMMA QT cable to the Fruit Jam STEMMA QT port. Then plug in the Adafruit Nunchuck Breakout Adapter.
Plug your Nintendo controller into the adapter.
Now, when you select "2 Player" in most games the second player will default to the I2C controller.
Classic Controller Only Support
When an USB controller is connected, the Wii-classic controller is Player 2. To use the Wii-Classic as Player 1, unplug the USB controller.
