      Hello,

      I'm going to replace my Xbox controller with a SNES controller like this one

      I normally have the xbox button as the hotkey and use this with the start key to exit games.

      How can I change this on the SNES controller as it doesn't have this button. I need to set a combo of 2 buttons to ext games.

      Thanks

        On those controllers I use Option as the hotkey. It can double as both the option button in systems and the hotkey for RetroArch purposes. I think there is one NES game that requires you to press option with something else, but I don't know which game and I've never played it, so it hasn't been an issue for me.

          I do use the Select button on every controller who has it, which also seems to be the standard in the Retropie community as far as I know.
