How to replicate the problem:I have been researching this for several days and many hours. I am a complete noob. I built an arcade with Arcade joysticks and buttons. I also have a USB port for a generic USB controller. They both work independently. I’ve tried different orders and maybe I’m using the RetroPie-joystick-selection incorrectly. the mapping of the buttons do not sync up. When I fire up NES, the arcade joystick and buttons function and the USB Saitek functions but the mapping defaults to whatever is player 1 in RetroArch. Same for hotkeys. Does this make sense? My ultimate goal is to be playing mame games and other arcade games with the arcade joystick and buttons yet when I plug in the USB generic controller I want to be able to play NES (ie Mike Tyson‘s Punch out), and the controller be mapped properly. Sorry if I’m asking this question wrong. the arcade joystick kit is EasyGet DragonRise and the USB controller is Saitek P880. Thanks and Merry Christmas!
