      Hey gang,

      Looks for a cheap Bluetooth controller from amazon that will work flawlessly with the Retropi.

      I would prefer to not have to use a dongle.

      Anyone have a one size fits all solution?

      TIA

        P.S. - I have the Gamesir G3s already and I can not find the dongle. I have it plugged in USB and even though I set up all the buttons I can not get it to actually start a NES game and while in any game I cant figure out how to get back to the retropi console screen.

            Pardon me sir. I edited my first post to correct my error because the last thing I want is for you (or anyone else for that matter) to be confused.

            Thank you for your constructive input.

              @pingywon Look in this topic for advice about connecting your Gamesir controller.

                @mitu I have indeed looked at the topic. If you look at the last post in that topic it is mine.

                I made this post because instead of wrestling with a gamesir controller I am open to buying one that works flawlessy right out the box.

                  @pingywon I can tell you the 8bitdo SN30 and N30 have the slightly aggravating northwest kernel problem.
