      Hello

      I tried your process on your video about adding on and off switch for the retropie. After the process it seems that the switch only makes the system turns ON but when I'm already in emulation station, the switch doesn't seem to turn it off. I did all of the process on the video. Am I missing something? Thanks!

        @granderjoree not sure you're going to get a reply. He hasn't been here in 2 years...

              @granderjoree There are several scripts that can work like you want

              Here is a topic ... in your case use the multi-switch.sh --generic command
