      I just setup a modded Arcade1up. When I configure all four joysticks at first it works no problem. The moment I go back to emulation station it crashes and throws a joy failed error. I cannot get retropie running again unless I unplug all four joysticks, reboot, plug back in.

      I’ve seen this topic a few times with no results.

        Please provide some info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

        An EmulationStation crash, as you're experience it, usually means the controllers are disconnecting during the initial scan. Are all joysticks plugged in directly into the Pi ? Are you using a good power source for the Pi ?
