  • RetroPie-joystick-selection

    A script to let the user choose the controllers for RetroArch players 1-4

  • I used https://github.com/meleu/RetroPie-joystick-selection as well hoping it would let me assign my keyboard as player2 but it didn't. I did use this to put the gamepad as player 1, though I think in my situation this wasn't needed as it was already mapped to 1. But it seems like a great tool so I left it for when I want to add for gamepads. My 8bit Pro 2 is on its way!
