Perhaps Project Lunar has since added more features, but, for me, Hakchi has been a breeze to use and I can’t think of anything I need it to do that it doesn’t do. And, even better, Hakchi already had way more built-in functionalities, like a file sorting system and more, ready to go. And after finding a suggestion on a forum to try using Parallels to pretend my Mac was a PC for hacking purposes, I quickly discovered that Hakchi was just as easy to setup as Project Lunar had been, if not exponentially easier as I was no longer using that slow-ass Virtual Box. If you’ve ever poked around online about hacking a mini console, then you probably are already aware that the other solution out there comes from Hakchi. On top of that, I was on a Mac and the instructions I followed involved using Virtual Box to pretend I was on a PC and that ended up being extremely slow, eventually leading to syncing problems and me having to restore my Mini back to its factory settings and searching the internet for another solution.



I originally started my ‘mini hacking / retro video game’ hobby with Project Lunar back in March 2020, and that hack was mostly successful in regards to adding any Genesis / Mega Drive game I wanted, but there were limitations to how many games could be added and in setting up different consoles ( like NES and SNES) as there was no file sorting system in Project Lunar at the time.
