      Hello All,
      I am having some trouble with my Mayflash controllers and Retropie. I purchased one for N64 and SNES. I use the original controllers with each. I am able to properly map the controllers and navigate Retropie menus with both, but when I launch a ROM they no longer function. I have searched for other posts on this topic but was unable to find one on point. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
      Thanks!

        If they have two ports you may want to switch to other port. I had the same problem. It doesn't function on player 2.

          @NoOddJob as @polish-potato said. On any mayflash adapters i have used, player 1 and 2 are backward. If that
          isnt it then re set up your controller. Write down what numbers all the buttons are. Now open up the

          /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/autoconfig/  
          

          folder. Now find the configs for your controllers. Verify if if the numbers match. If they do then run

          sudo jstest /dev/input/js0
          

          Now push the buttons and verify if the buttons match there. If they dont, then change your config file to match the jstest.
