      i am building a "console" using the raspberry pi zero along with a usb hb and some adapters. some call it the Pi Cart, cuz the raspberry and all its internals are inside a NES cartridge. i was wondering, what controllers can be used with retroPie? the two tutorials i see are using a SNES usb controller. i was wondering if i can use any other usb controller? like a logitech usb controller or a xbox one controller. Im totally new to this

        @vmiget your best to use wired controllers on a pi zero. I recommend using a rockband hub that has the 4 ports in a row but not one that uses a power cord. It is an exact fit with the hdmi and the power plug unlike the video that shows only 3 ports on the face. Unlike that video this way you put the power plug vertical which is good since it makes it an exact fit both horizontally and vertically. If you want i can show you pics Tomorrow.
