+The emulator can simulate BIOS, which means BIOS files are not required,
+however implementation is not complete and some games still need real BIOS
+to work. To use real BIOS, copy uncompressed BIOS files to
+[sd card]/pandora/appdata/pcsx_rearmed/bios/
+then select the BIOS you want to use in Options->BIOS/Plugins menu.
+
+Analog controllers are supported using nubs, but this is disabled by
+default and needs to be enabled in 'Controls' menu.
