There's no need to create a new post ever time one of your former posts isn't answered. It should work with xpad out of the box unless it's some janky controller or an insufficient power supply or some other thing. But since you didn't provide the details requested on the read me first page it's hard to help you.

@rbaker The kit from adafruit comes with a boost converter that converts the 3.7V up to 5V.

@maxbeanz That's it. Thanks. I was only looking in the retroarch gui and not the mame gui. It's not fullspeed, hopefully a Pi3+ will fix that.

Yes i use Windows, i made a batch file from it and it doesn't work. And now i try to figure out how powershell works..

Hope it helps someone! I tried to get the mouse to work as a Zapper. It just wouldn't work. End of the story: I had to unplug the USB-dongle of my remote control, because it had a mouse functionality. I think it had a conflict with my wireless USB mouse. Afterwards I changed mouse index to 0 in lr-fsceumm under Controller 2 Input and changed the type to Zapper. That's it!

@pjft
Thank you for this, I found that disabling overscan solved the problem!

Assuming you are using the latest version of Retropie, you did not mention your build other than a wired 360 controller. You should read this: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first Then the following:

If you had your controller plugged in when you booted up it should have asked you about controller configuration. If so, this tells you everything you need to know about configuring a controller. Follow these and you'll be gaming in no time.

@rocco42 we don't really offer support here for other images as we don't possibly know versions or conflicting software that may be installed there.

That being said you will want to turn off OMX Player for that to happen, if that version supports it. Other issues will likely occur.

@kruuth No - it's not supported by RetroArch.

@metalhead I figured it out. For some reason the N64's volume level was way higher than all the other systems. So when I decreased the volume to 50%, I just couldn't hear the other emulators.

Such a dumb thing I overlooked.

Just had to adjust N64's config file.

Thanks for your help!

@mofomike83 Since you're just starting, get the latest RetroPie image and flash it on the card - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/First-Installation/

@dalves Games that do scrolling (eg. Auto Racing, AD&D) will typically expand the left and top border by one tile, making the active area smaller and appear shifted right. Some games (eg. Space Battle, Shark Shark) that don't scroll, expand the left border anyway, for no good reason. PGA Golf, Deadly Discs, and Sub Hunt are examples of games that don't expand the border and should look centred.

Regarding resolution, maybe it's a good idea if the Retropie creators add a default -z1 switch to the default jzIntv command. That way it looks decent out of the box.

Might also be a good idea to add a default --kbdhackfile switch along with a sample keyboard hack file (empty except for some comments), along with the official jzintv keyboard hackfile documentation with the install of Retropie jzIntv
