      Hello all

      First time posting here, and I wish I didn't have an issue so soon, but I cannot seem to pair my Powerlead Generic Wii U Pro Controller with my Raspberry Pi 3 running Nacho's Image.

      I've checked and enabled the bluetooth status, updated firmware.
      Is there a specific driver I need for this controller? If so, I haven't found it yet.
      I have not tried a usb bluetooth dongle, as I'm hoping to use the internal bluetooth from the board.

      Please, any help is appreciated.
      Thank you

        @dmytrowp https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first - we can only offer support for RetroPie images, any 3rd party pre-made images are not supported.
        EDIT: Also, look at https://www.reddit.com/r/RetroPie/comments/7pijvl/powerlead_wii_u_pro_controller/ and make sure your controllers really support Bluetooth.
