Really appreciate your simple to follow guide . I reset my controller configuration Then my arcade games didn’t work , I couldn’t move my controller or even press any buttons , nothing worked. It only worked on the main menu at start up. Then I found your video and within 5 minutes , EVERYTHING back to normal Thanks you are a LEGEND 👍👍👍👍
Thank you. Without this, I never would have gotten my controllers fixed. After update and upgrade, I ended up having multiple controller saves in the joypad folder. Going through all of your steps made the game playable again. Thank you. Now if only I could get my HDD remounted properly...
these videos are always helpful. i know for myself sometimes i get mine setup for a few weeks and then i forget what I did and need to start over and videos like this help me get back to it.
Question on the SNES , all my arcade buttons work fine with all other systems except SNES. When I start SNES the button layout is all mixed up. Where can I change the layout ?
Hello and thank you for holding our hands w tutorial. Really thx. You and ETA prime have been helpful. U tend to ramble on other vids, but when u say its a tutorial, thats what we get. &)
How do you fix the controller issue on a retropie box? I'm not using a computer. I don't see any of those options on my menu about retropie setup? It's an older layout
Great tutorial! thanks, I seem to have a calibration problem on one of my joysticks it has an axis drift. I've tried everything even replaced the hardware. Still the same Axsis drift problem. Is there a calibration menu or something I'm missing?
My problem I have right now is easily setting up different kinds of controllers at the same time. I have mad cats fit sticks for first 2 players and snes controllers for players 3&4 but when I go through initial config it only sets up the mad cats even though it detects 4 controllers at initial config.
Can you make a dummies guide video on ipac2 setup. I'm currently having problems finding 2 player. As I am new to this and not the best on a computer this would be great, as there is no videos on TH-cam about fixing it
Thanks for the video it's really helpful. I wonder if you can help with an issue I'm having... Recently bought a pre set up raspberry pi, plugged in, and all was good. Played games with SNES style controllers and all fine, including hotkeys. Then bought an N64 Style controller, configured that, and all was well again. Today I tried going back to the SNES controller, but whatever I do, the hotkeys just aren't working (so can't exit / save / load games). Any advice would be very gratefully received! Thanks
Actually just noticed when I start a game it is saying in the bottom left corner that I am using a NES style controller whereas I am actually using a SNES Style. This explains why it no longer seems to be recognising all the buttons. No idea how this happened, as all I did was switch controllers. I've tried tricks in this video, but none have sorted it. Sorry to be a pain, but if you have any ideas that would be great.
Hi. How to your restore a controller deck to its original settings? I screwed my whole configuration, including the player’s one and two buttons and the coin buttons. I’m currently running on Raspberry pi 4.5 on retro pi. I can’t even exit games using my top row buttons, like I’ve done before.
Would these steps help if I : updated the retro pi script and received a message that said joy2key could not be updated now my buttons and joystick no longer respond🤔
Super frustrating, cannot get both controllers working on my retropie. Have to be a computer hacker to deal with this thing. It used to work fine, but sometimes controller one works, sometimes controller two works, never at the same time anymore. Please help.
Hi MLP, these setups doesn't fix the controller in the VERTIPIE image. I've tried all methods above but still no luck. Everything works fine in the ES, but while playing games, the only working button is "Y". I can't even go back to the previous menu using start select. Please help... thanks And o yeah, it's a cool intro you got there!
And what if my SELECT (coin) switch still doesn´t work after this troubleshooting?. I know the USB controller works because I can map everything, test it windows and all buttons work but it just wont "count coins" for some reason and so I cannot play any games at all. I have a raspberry 3, retropie cabinet for 1 player only. I have also done the "clear/reset input configuration" and the "reset emulation station" procedures. Any suggestions?
Mine won't reapond to the joysticks but will respond with the controller up until I try to add coins or actually start the game then nothing responds... I thought the card was the problem, replaced it and same issue...will one of these methods fix that?
I'm having a issue a set my hot key binds for pause and frame skip x and z and c on my sega controller and accidentally saved it because I was testing frameahead running and now every time I change those commands back to original it just goes back to how i dont want it every time I reset the system or try to save the commands back to z and c which is messing up me being able to play..thanks in advance
Intro is sweet. Talented guy. Love the little sound clip when your name comes up. What would be cool is an image of yourself pixelating in your little pixelated person
I hope this works. People sent me here. Will it help with the generic joysticks that work in ES, but do nothing in games and retroarch? We will find out. Hope so fingers crossed.
Is there any way you could help me config my controller. Im trying to play super Mario 3 on nes. I only get control of a, i cant run or whip the racoon tail. Ive done the config numerous times im not sure what to do. 2 different controller types same issue
Hi, i tried the reconfigure on my gamepads. Gamepad 1 is okay, but gamepad 2 always gets things inverted. As an example for dpad up i press up and it chooses axis 1-. Would anyone know how to fix this? I have checked my connections 4 x and all seem to match
My roms don’t want to load I try to start them and it shows a grey box with configuration settings but after it loads past that it goes back to the menu
Nice video my controller works great for the menu screen but does absolutely nothing once an emulator is opened. Do you have a video that explains how to set up the controller for the emulators?
So dumb question but I am having issues backing out of a game. What am I missing here? So on my ps3 wireless controller, when I push start and select at same time it wont back me out of game. What do I need to do?
My retropie isn't full ihave tried 3 controllers it all works good except when I press select and start it don't reset their game I have to unplug my retropie in order to play a different one do you know how to fix this by any chance
followed this guide but still having issues. My controller works fine within emulation station, it's only when I launch the game I get a message saying Controller not configured, and it doesnt allow me to do anything through the controller. Anyone knows how to fix this issue ?
The config screen looks completely different for me. I'm running retropie on ubuntu, a few years later. I can't even figure out how to navigate the menus and everything is in a different place
Hello quick question I went to the ES Themes and installed the Comic one and rebooted my Pi 3 then half of the names and images on the main system select screen have white boxes, and missing text and images on the game select page, and also the font for the controls at the bottom is messed up as well. Any suggestions how I can fix?
maybe a little off topic, but do you know why certain things may be laggy on some images? specifically kodi, and psx? on all my own images that i built from scratch everything is smooth sailing, but i've tried some of yours and everything stock thats already on there works great, but then throwing on kodi, almost nothing works, and with psx i'm getting crazy sound glitches and lag. any help would be appreciated!
Love your work. I did all the steps for V4 but still the button configuration is all over the place. V3 worked perfect thou. I use a PS3 n PS4 controller works fine on V3.
Total Pi and Retro noob here, so bear with me. Added some games to test and all seemed well. Go in to play them and the controls are wonky. Left makes me go right. AB XY Sel Start not working. I went into emulation station and config/tools and did a reset but still the issue persists. Also controller doesn't work anymore once I go back to the retropie set up menu. Thanks in advance for any hints or help.
Can't access "now loading" set up on any emulator by pressing A. The button got deconfigured so I can not change anything in the launching menu before playing a rom. I am using RetroPie 4.3 on a Raspberry Pi 3 B. Any idea why this happened and how to solve it? My controllers are 8bitdo NES 30 Pro via bluetooth and a XBOX 360 wired controller.
I’m trying to map an N64 controller and there are some buttons it does use. Like trigger buttons and the select button. How do I skip those when mapping the buttons?
Love the content of the V4 16GB but even after doing all this three "fixes" I' m unable to use my controller or even the keyboard properly, besides the menu navigation :( So sad... is there any other solution since I really like this image?
Can you PLEASE HELP my system worked properly i put my wifi in and installed themes and right after thst none of my games will load what fo i have to do to be able to play my games again
I have issues using Nintendo Wii Pro Controller with V4. When playing arcade; select and start allows me to exit but left trigger adds credits and right trigger starts the game. When playing PS1 right trigger enables right trigger function plus start function. I followed the instructions but have not found a solution.
i ended up editing the trigger buttons for L2 and R2 by hand in the config file of the controller.. as Emulationstation detected and configured them weirdly when i pressed them.. after setting it right in the config file they worked like they should... but their sensitivity is low so i was just about to look up (stumbled on this) how to change that accordingly too
So I am having trouble with just player 2 once I turn on everything and try to play fighting games with 2 player the second one doesn't work I have checked and I have full signal to all buttons but I think it's a software issue can anyone help please
Have the same issue... I could not solve properly but find out something at least you are able to play. I have one very basic usb controller maybe only 1usd chinese copy...no name so small...I set it to port 0 as 1st main and xbox360usb controller to 2nd player in port 1.. ...cheap usb is controlling menu, coin and go back to emulation station desktop.... and playable for 1 Player... in the game when I hit the start button of XBOX360 controller it enters the game as 2nd player and works properly..( without analogs !! - only D-Pad)....recently saw the video and tried everything but will try to erase the all and install from bin later on.
Have you (or anyone else here) ever had controller lag in your retropi? I'm trying to play NES Punch Out and SNES Mario Kart on my pi, but the delay in my controller makes it almost impossible. Any help would be much appreciated
hi MLP i installed this image [32gb] 32GB RetroPie 4.2 Image Pi Zero W or Pi 3 - MadLittlePixel- [MAGNET] - READ NFO and it boots up by my snes usb controller is not recognised...any ideas on how to fix this please? thanks for your work :)
Thanks for this video man! Love learning more about the in's & out's of retropie. I'm really trying to absorb it all maybe start working on my own image. Thanks for all your hard work bro.
So all the controls work for all my emulators (snes, sega, etc) but I have an emulator for arcade games called "Arcade" and all the buttons work when in the game but the joystick does not. Ive searched high and wide all over the internet for solutions but no luck. Can someone help me? Its a bartop arcade..How do I configure the arcade emulator differently?
I know this is a old posting but I hope someone is still watching it.Very good information for us new users. I am having a problem I cannot figure out, I have tried different things. I am not sure what to do. I have roms loaded into my files etc. What my problem is, I click to play a game, it tries to start then freezes or goes back to the menu screen. I try different game it doesnt start but goes back to menus listing all the roms in that get, IE, SNES, or nes, etc. ANY idea what I may need to do. AS I SAY I am a complete newbie so please explain it like I am a 5 year old.. Thank You
Problems with dragonrise ps generic controller, I'm connected to wifi, used retropie and my ip address and keep getting network error connection refused, tried changing protocols and nothing
So I have had an issue with my Keyboard in ES & Games. Keyboard basically only functions when I am in one of the blue config screens (or any backend) but does not function on the ES menus, in Games, etc. Will that be resolved with a reset of the ES input config, or does that only reset my controller inputs?
Justin Doty You have to setup your keyboard in the ES control config for it to work in games and ES menus. If you dont it will only function in terminal and config/setups and what not.
Ah, so in other words it was already working as intended ;) I got stuck in colecovision and another system and had to hard boot and figured there was something I missed along the way. Thanks for all your work and videos like these.
Running into a new problem which I'm thinking is some sort of config issue, so i figured I'd comment here again. For the past couple days my when I exit out of an emulator, I am faced with a black screen - as if the UI has suddenly gone completely missing. I can press start to bring up the normal menu, and select if I am still in a system for that set of menus, and i can click through blindly and launch emulators, so ES is still running. But even changing UI doesn't bring it back, only restarting ES. Any thoughts? I was looking at the forum but was having trouble figuring out the right keywords to search for this issue.
If your controller isn't working how do you navigate through all these menus etc to do this!!! It's chicken and egg scenario! Controller not working so cannot navigate to chose options to make it work! This retropie stuff is so convoluted and confusing!
even though this video is 5 years old this whole video is golden. this is exactly what I needed. appreciate you
Really appreciate your simple to follow guide .
I reset my controller configuration
Then my arcade games didn’t work , I couldn’t move my controller or even press any buttons , nothing worked.

Question on the SNES , all my arcade buttons work fine with all other systems except SNES. When I start SNES the button layout is all mixed up. Where can I change the layout ?

And you just helped this guy (me) 2 years later. Thanks. Haha
Hello and thank you for holding our hands w tutorial. Really thx. You and ETA prime have been helpful. U tend to ramble on other vids, but when u say its a tutorial, thats what we get. &)
What would cause my second controller (PS4) to work on the menu screen, but not during multiplayer games?
That intro is great. These basic video's are a nice addition.
love that intro!
How do you fix the controller issue on a retropie box? I'm not using a computer. I don't see any of those options on my menu about retropie setup? It's an older layout

Great video man. I love these basics explained.
How can I turn it off once the game launched "gamepad 1 configured" ( from down left screen - pop up )..
And what if my SELECT (coin) switch still doesn´t work after this troubleshooting?. I know the USB controller works because I can map everything, test it windows and all buttons work but it just wont "count coins" for some reason and so I cannot play any games at all. I have a raspberry 3, retropie cabinet for 1 player only. I have also done the "clear/reset input configuration" and the "reset emulation station" procedures. Any suggestions?
2022 and the last thing was the only thing that worked. THANKS!
Thanks man helped alot fixed my controller issues
Mine won't reapond to the joysticks but will respond with the controller up until I try to add coins or actually start the game then nothing responds... I thought the card was the problem, replaced it and same issue...will one of these methods fix that?

Ive searched high and wide all over the internet for solutions but no luck. Can someone help me? Its a bartop arcade..How do I configure the arcade emulator differently?
I know this is a old posting but I hope someone is still watching it.Very good information for us new users. I am having a problem I cannot figure out, I have tried different things.
I am not sure what to do. I have roms loaded into my files etc.
