      So i used to have my wiimotes paired on retropie 2.6 but removed it because of issues with having to have both remotes on because it randomly picked player 1 even if you only have 1 remote on. so since the nes mini is coming out and i want to mod one i decided i wanted to see if there was any improvements to it. so i went into bluetooth pairing and the wiimote paired perfect. solid light and everything. tried to config controller in emulationstation but it doesnt see the controllers. so i followed this guide:
      https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Wiimotes-with-classic-controllers
      then i rebooted when all that was done and went to configure the controller and now it shows me having extra controllers but pressing buttons on the wiimote or on a classic controller if i add one does nothing. any help is appreciated.
