      According to the documentation https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Xbox-360-Controller/ I need a wireless receiver connected to the Pi to get the controller to pair with the Pi, is that correct? It doesn't work out of the box with Bluetooth?

        @offlercrocgod Xbox360 controllers do not have Bluetooth and will require a usb adapter to work. 3rd party adaptors are sold on Amazon and work just fine.
        If you wanted to go the Bluetooth route, you need an Xbox one controller WITH BLUETOOTH. Not all have it. Or get a ps4 controller.
