      Hi,

      I have Retropie all setup and working, I am using a USB SNES styled controller and it works fine in the main menu, and also the NDS emulator but I can not get it to work in the Megadrive / Genesis emulator.

      I am using lr-genesis-plus-gx

      I have done this from the wiki but the emulator does not see the controller at all

      Option 1

      You can edit the file /opt/retropie/configs/megadrive/retroarch.cfg and add in the following:

      input_libretro_device_p1 = "513"
      input_libretro_device_p2 = "513"
      This will set the controller type to a 6 button pad, and will reload this configuration every time the emulator is launched.

      Anyone help with this please

      Thanks

      Kimbie
