      As an owner of one of these, you may have experienced the disappointment when you configure the controller in emulation station, boot up a game and then the controller stops working. For around five months I was looking for a solution to get the adapter to work with Retropie in ALL emulators. I figured out the solution last night. I can now use your Official N64 controller to play NES, SNES, GB, GBA, FBA, ect. The controller is also well suited for Virtual Boy.
      It's a simple fix that will take only a few minutes of your time.
      Is anyone interested in a detailed guide? To be honest, i will make it if even one person is interested.

        It doesn't have to be a step-by-step guide, but any information for new users of this adapter would be useful. Have at it !

          @TraptedMind while it wouldn't personally be of use to me I think that any added knowledge is worth the effort. Especially considering it took you a while to work through it.
