      @slooker your controllers are bluetooth, right ? can you plug them on usb, run lsusb and post the output ?

          Is there a better option than xbox controllers, because at this point, I'd happily throw money at it to not have to keep screwing with things. :p

            8bitdo controllers are popular, personally i mostly use hori fight commanders since i rarely play anything that requires a second stick or analog controls. I don't think changing controllers is the solution here though.

            The officlal retroarch config file for 045e:02ea (hexadecimal) aka 1118:746 (decimal) is https://github.com/libretro/retroarch-joypad-autoconfig/blob/master/udev/Microsoft_X-Box_One_S_pad.cfg , and it doesn't look like yours at all, so my only guess is that your config is wrong. Maybe try overwriting yours with the official one ?

              If they don't work in Neogeo only, the issue is localized for that system, could be a configuration issue and not a controller problem.

              If you've updated the firmware on your controller, it may be necessary to install the latest xpadneo driver (tagged for release recently - v0.9.2) and see if the controllers start behaving correctly. The newest firmware enabled BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) on the controllers and it may not work correctly with the xpadneo driver included in RetroPie.

                @mitu Got it! I've updated the firmware per the docs. Let me try installing the new xpadneo driver and then copying the config for the controller from github!

                  @mitu How do I update to 0.9.2? When I try to reinstall, it reinstalls the branch 0.9.1 again.

                    @slooker I updated to 0.9.2 and re-paired my controller. I didn't think I had to go through the configuration again because I copied the configuration from the github repo.

                    After going through the repo, EVERYTHING WORKS!

                    Thank you so much for all of your patience in helping me!!

                      Glad that everything worked out in the end.

                      The xpadneo version in RetroPie is still 0.9.1, since 0.9.2 was just announced yesterday and we haven't got the time to update it yet. But now that we know it works, we'll add the new bits in RetroPie-Setup.

                      Thank you for the follow-up and have fun shooting Metal Slugs !
