Retropad Bindings for Atari 2600
-
On the flip side, I beat 'Sonic the Hedgehog' with an Atari2600 controller back in high school. I was the coolest kid who ever got shoved in a locker.

@mediamogul i wish i wasnt already stuck in the locker when you got shoved in. :)

Ha! A couple of more people and we could have set a record... or died horribly.

@edmaul69 I get the impression that they are set by default, I have a keyboard that isnt configd in ES , and in ES it does nothing, the enter button starts a game, the ESC exits the emulator and I pressed something last ngiht that changed the colour scheme of the game when playing.... but I didnt catch which button it was, there is defo something set up by standard here.
Also , even if you map the only button on the joystick as B in ES in order to make it work in the emulator, it still works as A in ES. almost as if someone has put some thought into it and knows you need an A in ES and a B in the EMU. -
@spruce_m00se the keyboard is only partially preconfigured in retroarch. The L1,2,3, R1,2,3 and analogs are not configured. A, s, z, x on the keyboard are a, b, x and y. Shift is select and enter is start.

What is the process of getting the 'official' 2600 page (https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Atari-2600) updated with this information?
Seems crazy that this thread contains the answer, yet the official 2600 config page doesn't.

Get a github account, then edit the page. It's a Wiki.

ok done.
I am halfway there. Now I need to figure out how to upload an image. I took the liberty of editing the image above, and I got this:

Technically, you've already done it. As of your previous post the image can be found at

@olafwagner nice diagram.
I generally just upload it to a GitHub issue and copy the created link to the wiki
