      I have exactly the same problem. I found quite a few videos on youtube which shows you how to resolve this by going into the actual retroarch configuration menu's.... but that's in version 3.6 of retropie. In v4.1 (the current latest version) many of those menu's do not appear. I've tried with a SNES styled USB controller... and a USB keyboard. When going through the retropie menu I can use both USB controller and/or keyboard. As soon as i select a game in any of the emulators, then the USB devices no longer work/or are recognised. I cannot even get back to the menu at all. Hard shutdown is the only way to get out of this (unplug the power cable) from my pi. I am also running the same setup as @TheCartesian mentions above running on a pi3 B. HELP retropie guru's..... i stupidly told my kids i'd get this setup for them to play the BEST CLASSIC games ever and i'm failing. Snif snif....

      @Yamt short answer no - you will have to remap it to another button (for that particular emulator/game).

      @dankcushions

      The devices report more than just a VID and PID number then, correct? Because you'll see different text show up for different controllers (like Mayflash, or RetroUSB, iBuffalo, etc), and the config files get named differently as well.

      And I will run that command when I get home, thanks. I only have I think 2 different quasi-generic brands of SNES controllers at home now (maybe a third this weekend if it comes in) - gave the others away. I'll see what my Hyperkin Genesis says too as that one is also generic for some reason (think I have a Tomee? NES one as well). My iBuffalo we know is fine and unique.

      @Dochartaigh are you sure the hyperkin controller uses the same mold as a real genesis? I opened up two of them to do that and they didnt match the official genesis 6 button. Maybe the retrolink? The retrolink n64 controllers can be case swapped but i havent found anything on the genesis controllers

      Okay, I found a solution to my problem:

      https://github.com/jfroco/atari800-rpi

      It's an alternative binary for the atari800 emulator that maps RetroArch buttons to the START, SELECT and RESET keys. It adds some new options to the atari800.cfg file.

      No need to do keymaps.

      Make sure you have correct usb order:

      alt text

      and do the HEX edit the driver, it's a common issue with zero delay controller, the up and down detect as "3" isn't right:

      I've got it figured out. I mapped the buttons as if I had an SNES controller (backwards). This corrected the problem with SEGA. The only issue now is that in EmulationStation, it says to press A to enter, B to go back, etc. For somebody not familiar with the system, that can be confusing. By going through the RetroArch-Setup scripts and swapping the A/B buttons, it only does it in EmulationStation. So everything now works like it's supposed to.

      Thanks! On to my next big project!

      Yeah it needs work. It may have been best left out tbh, but I was short on time to test, so I thought it would be ok to leave it in experimental.

      @sirus505 said in Setting up multiple controllers issues:

      Just thought I could make both controllers have the same privelages in terms of saving and exiting for games.

      There's an option named all_users_control_menu, but it's so new that isn't available in a fresh 4.0.2 install. If you install/update retroarch from source you'll get it.
      I commented about it here

      On RetroArch it's q and w - but please try and be more specific as RetroPie consists of many components that accept input. https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

      Can you use the other topic perhaps rather than having two topics about input settings ?
