User guide
RetroRocket support four different game mode:

Right - rotate to right
Left - rotate to left
A - accelerate, confirm (menus)
B - go back (menus)

Troubleshooting
Random crashes in network games:
- The library does not fully tolerate alien network traffic on the same wireless channel. If you experience random crashes, change your network channels. Make sure all players use the same channel.
Can not find rooms:
- The library does not fully handle the use of rooms. If you experience problems with finding each others rooms, all players should restart their DS. Also, make sure all players use the same network channel. Channel 11 is the default channel, and not all DS units support changing the channel.
