      Pi Model or other hardware: 3 model b
      Power Supply used: 5V-2.5A micro usb wall cable (cake with my Cana Kit)
      RetroPie Version Used: 4.1
      Built From: Pre made SD Image on RetroPie website
      Controller used: PS3 controller

      It always says there's an extra gamepad detected. Like when all I have is a ps3 control, it says there's another gamepad. When I try to play on the NES (specifically Super Mario Bros 3) this is a problem. Because only player one can start the game, and it likes to place this phantom controller as player one. The only way I can prioritize my ps3 controller is of I plug it in. So i can't use Bluetooth. It says it's a GPIO controller but there's nothing plugged in? What can I do?
