      Hi guys,

      I recently purchase a 8BitDo Nes30 Pro controller. I have been able to connect it to everything (ios, windows etc..) but for the life of me I cant connect it to retropie on my Raspberry 3. The good news is I have learnt more than I care to on the terminal commands but everything I have read, watched and tried has not resolved the issue. When I go to terminal and for to Bluetooth and run power on command I just get a "No connected device is found".

      I have upgrade and downgraded the controller firmware, updated everything, run commands like everyone has posted. When I go into Bluetooth it just search and say it could find any devices.

      I have tried everything - its almost like the Bluetooth is not working but when I check status it active and working.

      I'm on the brink of giving up after almost two weeks of trying. Bluetooth shouldn't be this hard.

      Any help would be appreciated.

          I have read the wiki and have done everything posted. The wiki assumes when I do a search for devices that the device shows up - it doesn't.

            @maximus76 the page on the wiki works. If it doesn't show up, you should keep trying. Make sure you have the latest non beta firmware. I have 3 8bitdo controllers all paired with those instructions.
