Six keys. Animated consoles. Update All on the first page.

Download Mini v2.0.0 ZIP · Installation and source · Mini Editor · Mini + MK.2 guide

Physical key 4 on Home runs Update All. Key 6 cycles through all six pages; Shortcuts includes Back to Home. Tap Home’s brightness key for five ascending levels, or hold it one second to jump to Navigation. Keyboard shortcuts turn green while held. Page 6 adds Y and N for the active MiSTer screen; these keyboard events do not feed the background Update All process, which runs with non-interactive input.

Use both decks

Download the Dual v2.0.0 bundle, copy its complete Scripts contents, and run ButtonGoblin_Both_Enable.sh. The Mini and 15-key MK.2 have separate configurations, services and brightness.

Install Mini only

Copy this package’s complete Scripts contents, including hidden .config, into /media/fat/Scripts. Connect the Mini to MiSTer’s USB host hub and run ButtonGoblin_Mini_Enable.sh. The service starts immediately and at boot. Install Update All separately at Scripts/update_all.sh.

Use the Mini Editor to customize all six pages, upload images or animated GIFs, and export Mini-ready configurations and artwork. Save a Mini project to preserve your edits. Wait for Update All to finish, disable Mini, copy the exported Scripts contents including hidden .config, then enable Mini. Install the launcher separately. The MK.2 editor has a separate export format. The Mini build is host-tested and cross-compiled; physical Mini orientation, brightness, and USB playback need your hardware check.
