      I just acquire a Raspberry Pi 3 and I will install RetroPie. I've been reading a lot about controllers trying to decide which one would be my best bet. I'm pretty much a newbie with this kind of stuff, so, here is my question:

      Which controller should I stick with? Two Wireless PS3 or two Wireless Xbox 360 controllers?

      Thank you!

        Best is subjective... I would go with PS3 just because I like them more. And I believe you need the wireless reliever plugged into your RPi for 360 controllers. PS3 can use the Bluetooth built in to the RPi.

        PS3 controller was setup on like day 1 of owning my RPi and I have yet to have any issues. I can't speak for 360 controller.
