I'm working on two Pi projects.
One a bartop arcade cabinet with a Raspberry Pi 3, Zero Delay Encoder and arcade joysticks and buttons.
The second a Pi-tendo (or the likes of).
I'd like to use my second Pi for a console type build, be it housed in a classic NES or a different console.
I've seen some online and I'm really inspired to create my own.
One thing I'd like to do with this project is use various USB controllers with the different emulators.
For example, I have USB versions of the NES, SNES and N64 controller.
I'd love to find a USB version of the Dreamcast controller, but I'm yet to do so.
I picked up 2 wireless XBOX 360 controllers used today for $20 (pair).
I planned on using them with this adapter (pictured) as the main controls for the set up and the more current emulators.
My question is this, (if anyone knows) -- Can I simply plug in a game pad one time, configure it, then plug it in when needed ?
I'm not sure I'm wording this correctly.
Essentially I want to have the XBOX 360 pads as the main pads.
But when I'm playing NES I plug in the USB NES pads, when I'm playing SNES I plug in the USB SNES pads, N64 same idea.
Can this be done ?
