      I have been trying to get the draStic emulator to work for the past two days, first of all when I installed draStic from the experimental menu it didn't show up even though I had inserted ROMS so then I found this site: Pretendo Online » Installing Drastic Nintendo DS Emulator on RetroPie. And it helped to get it up and running :).But now when I go onto the menu to change size and resolution and stuff,It doesn't work.I can't even configure my ps4 controller,so I have been playing with keyboard and mouse :(. I am not a beginner but I am not an expert so don't judge me and thank you in advance!

      Here is me converting the original Xbox for a case:

          I am not sure at all but I think some gamepads are not recognized by Drastic. I had a cheap bluetooth gamepad and it didn't work. Now I use a Xbox 360 wireless and it Works fine.
          Can you chage options using your keyboard ?

            @kisu2012 Ps4 dualshock should work with most emulators, but Drastic is a standalone emulator and who knows.

                If you can go through menu using keyboard and you can't map controller buttons, unfortunately, PS4 dualshock might not be compatible with Drastic, Have you got a Ps3 controller?
