      I've got a SF30 Pro Controller and an 8BitDo Arcade Stick both connected to my RetroPie (in Switch mode - both latest firmware), however, only 1 controller seems to exit the game, by pressing Start+Select - is this by design?

      Also, there seems to be a small bit of latency with both controllers (which I know is a fact of bluetooth connections), is there anyway I can minimise this?

      Thanks,
      Stewart

        Yes, only the 1st player has access to Hotkeys.

        Disable the Wifi connection or get a BT USB adapter - what RPI Model are you using ?

          Its a Pi3 B+, I'll try and disable WiFi and see what happens.
