Game Won't Save - AaronBerry - 05-04-2022

I've followed all directions, and have Dolphin using my XBox controller. But, I cannot get past the save option in "Wind Waker". How do I get the controller to move to "yes" so I can save the game?

Post your controller settings.

Is the controller working in other games?

The controller IS working, but, it I cannot choose "yes" to save to a memory card. I've tried this on 2 other games, and it's the same thing!!

I know this sounds like a dumb question, but are you pressing the right button? You'd be surprised how many people asking this question end up having just pressed the wrong button.

I pressed them all and nothing happens. Could it be, that the save rom is not loading, or the extension is wrong??

It would probably give you an error if that was the problem. Are you able to try any wii games?

Sorry it's taken so long. Looks like I have some corrupted zip files and cannot locate any sites with some good ones. I've only found 3 files and still can't get past the "save" function. Don't know what else to do. Sad I found some sites, but they keep telling me the files are "restricted".

For know, it looks like I'll be playing games from a different emulator. Thanks for helping ExtremeDude2. I appreciate the help!
