      Does this provide any clues?

      Not really, the Joy2key keyboard messages are ok since they're associated with the runcommand menu and the joy2key utility. However, the fact that there are no disconnects for your physical gamepads means their connection is fine - it's what the dmesg command was used for.

      Hm, seems like the the hid_nintendo driver has some issues with the 8Bitdo pretending to be a Switch Pro Controller. Thanks for the investigatio and write-up.

      Generally, users use the XInput mode for 8Bitdo Pro(s) and use the hid_xpadneo driver, probably that's why there haven't been so many reports similar to yours.

      @Diego said in Bluetooth controllers order:

      I think I fall a bit short to answer your question but I think I can provide some more information that you may find useful. [...]

      Unfortunately the alias you added is not used for re-ordering of the controllers in emulators. I'm not sure if you can force a re-connection based on the MAC (which I assume is how the alias is associated with the controller), but that may be worth investigating - forcing a re-connect of the controller(s) just to influence the detection order and simulate an 'orderly' pairing.

      @mitu Thank you Mitu,

      I couldn't figure out how to skip, so I just made the button the select key. I was able to start Mario but then couldn't exit, Hahahahah. I read your post on how to exit by skipping holding A, and then it prompted me for Select.

      Thank you! I appreciate your help!

      @mitu I decided to use the Ace with my PS4 instead (it works fine right out of the box on PS4) and use the dualshock controllers for retropie. However, even those I can't successfully pair with retropie. I will write a separate post.

      Did you try to ask the vendor if they have Linux support ? Is the controller you have the Brawler64 BT NSO Edition - the one that's created for the Switch ?

      Please also add the info requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

      @mitu Thank you so much! This fixed the problem. I was sure it wasn't a wiring issue, but I guess it goes to show how little I really know about computers, lol. Thanks for the help :)

      I tried xboxdrv according to the instructions, but it doesn't seem to be there:

      It's not installed by default, you need to install it first, from the drivers section of the packages.

      No particular error shows up in the logs, the 360 is detected but not initialized as a gamepad though. Nothing comes to mind on what's going on.
      You may want to post in the Steamlink forums (https://steamcommunity.com/app/353380/discussions/0/) and post the link to your log there also. If any of the controller works by itself, then it's not a config issue and usually in situation like this I'd check if there's enough power for both the WiFi and USB at the time, but since they already work (simultaneously) outside Steamlink that can't be it.

      @mitu I ran an update last night and the issue of the in-game menu causing the controller to become unresponsive until the select button is pressed has been fixed. I can now pull up the menu, take screenshots, save states, and return to the game without any problems.

      The issue with running the setup from within the RetroPie OS still remains. The workaround is to sudo ./retropie_setup.sh from the terminal.
