      Hi,

      I'm looking for some days how to make work second controller on master system, fba and neogeo. Second controller is working on megadrive and snes emulator.

      I tried to do solve this issue with :
      -retropie-joystick-selection script,
      -edit joystick-selection.cfg http://pastebin.com/SjXfAURx and retroarch.conf of neogeo directory : http://pastebin.com/NUHHD9J7,
      -tried to uncomment input_player1_joypad_index = "1", input_player2_joypad_index = "0", input_player3_joypad_index = "2" of retroarch.cfg from "all" directory : http://pastebin.com/e7DjTene.
      -I also tried to compare snes and neogeo directory.

      No effect, I can't insert coin or start second player in neogeo game.

      Do you have an idea ?

      Thanks you for your help et sorry for my poor english.

        Master system configuration : launch game, hit F1, configure input.
        But still have message "controller XX not configured" when launching master system, so I can play with 2 player but cannot exit game.

          I noticed that the #include directive (last line) of your neogeo/retroarch.cfg is wrong. The # symbol is necessary. This way:

          #include "/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg"
          

          If this doesn't solve your problem, I would like to see your working configs (eg: megadrive/retroarch.cfg).

            I think it's happening due to the same reason I mentioned in my previous post: the lack of the # character in the #include directive on mastersystem/retroarch.cfg.

            Did you delete this char?

              Indeed it was the problem, I restored the original file with # char. That's ok, everything is working. Thanks for your help
