    Hello,
    I have a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Quad-Core 1.2 GHz 1 GB RAM
    I've done all the updates yasterday (how to tell what update version, I haven't clue)
    I've got 2 wireless Xbox 360 controllers
    When I play some PSX games, Einhander, Future Cop L.A.P.D, Madden NFL 2005
    The controller vibrates hard and lasts for around a minute and then stop... but after some time it just starts up again.

    I've tried turning off the vibrate in the said games and still does it.
    I've tried changing the controller to with or without analog sticks and still vibrate in the RetroArch.
    I've read people having the same problem with PS3 controller and fixing by going to "sudo nano /var/lib/sixad/profiles/default" and changing "enable_rumble from 1 to 0"
    https://www.reddit.com/r/RetroPie/comments/5nuxvv/is_there_any_way_to_disable_rumble/?st=j4jd45rz&sh=c079070e

    But I don't know if Xbox 360 controllers have the same location as PS3 controllers?
    Vibration to controllers is one the dumbest things I've ever seen in gaming
    and I'm just thinking of opening my Controllers and removing the stupid rumble.

    Also when I turn off my Retropie my Xbox 360 controllers stay on blinking it's green circle at me.
    I've left it alone to see if it turn off by it self... but it never did. I have to take out the batteries to get it to stop.
    But it's just a little thing... The Vibration thing is the biggest problem.

    Thank you for your time.

      @N-Game-Arts when in the game in the psx system go to the retroarch menu. Should be select and the x button. Go to quick menu, options and scroll down part way until you find controller vibration. Disable it. Save changes to core.

          @TMNTturtlguy you shouldnt have to "save changes to core" as core options automatically save.

            @edmaul69 that is not true. There is a setting in retroarch that allows you to "always save" core changes. If that is off, which I recommend, and I think is default, you need to manually save core changes. I want it off so I can make changes and save it to game only and not change all games.

              @TMNTturtlguy strange. Not sure when that changed. The only changes i have ever made were in the core options. I have never set any other settings in retroarch gui ever and i never have had to turn that option on. It was on by default.

                @edmaul69 its been that way for at least 6 months I have used it. Don't you ever make changes to a specific game? It is build so you can save some changes to core that will effect all games and some changes to the game so that only that game has the changes.

                  @TMNTturtlguy i prefer to manually make any individual configs. I have learned a lot about retroarch config settings by manually doing them.

                    @edmaul69 so you make manual config files for each rom?

                      @TMNTturtlguy yup. But if i need a bulk set of games that use the same core options or same retroarch.cfg options, i have their individual configs pointing to a different core-options or retroarch.cfg file that i created. So for example psx games that use analog option, i would point their individual config to a different core-options config that i created just for psx that has the analog enabled. That way if the core options ever have any changes made, i dont have to change each config, just the one.
