@GaryOderNichts Hi. An option to swap A/B and X/Y button mapping would be great for xbox controllers.

May be an editable config file. Or holding a key combo to hotswap. Just my thoughts. You know the feeling when the game asked to press A to enter but have to press B instead, right?😅
I just made that edit and compiled it for you. tested, it works.

I could add it to say the dual sense as well, since the controllers are separate. I only changed the xbox one one. I do agree that these companies have made it so confusing with A, B and X, Y being swapped on the xbox controller with A being confirm, which would be B on a Nintendo controller. then, sony creates their own buttons with cross as confirm in the same location as B, but only outside of Japan. I have a Japanese ps4, and several usa games, so it's weird to have circle as confirm on the home menu, then cross as confirm while in a game. the button mod thing doesn't work very well. however, I know that one of the firmwares changed the confirm button or rather you could change it. it was after 5.05 though, so I can't change mine. I think it was one of the 6.xx firmwares actually. point being, utter confusion when going between consoles.

yes, well It depends of the controller is supported by Bloodpair, yes.
Gary, Is there a possibility Bloopair doesn't work with EUR Wiiu? I've tested to make work PS3 and PS4 dualshock and couldn't make work none of them, PS3 did pair, but doesn't work afterward.....well seemed at a moment to work but badly (very difficult to control, then stopped workin no signal....Weird ;( (Maybe related to pal wiiu or maybe 5.5.5 firmware?)
Need a Dualsense and Xbox X gamepad to test if none of them work.....I'll buy them soon

I too am having this issue. My PS3 controller will pair and register as a Wii U pro controller but no inputs work. I tried RetroArch and Tekken tag.

I wanted to buy a Microsoft Xbox One Controller and dualsense for bloopair, but which one shall I buy so it is compatible??
Dualsense, it seems obvious any will do (are they clone or fake not compatible?)
I'm not a XBOX gamepad expert, but there are multiples, X360, Serie One (I guess??) , Serie S and Serie X, that makes at least 4
So in order to be compatible, I cannot buy X360 nor Serie S or X, so do I have to buy a XBOX SERIE ONE only I guess??
Are they multiple and How to be sure it is compatible?? (not very much explain on 1st page) Which one is a no miss?
Is there also no ways to make the most commun, wired PS2 gamepad, compatible?

Both work for me, but sometimes they disconnect for unknown reasons.

My Xbox One S controller had a firmware update that now makes impossible to pair to Bloopair... Any solution for this?

Hi 👋🏼

I just installed Tiramisu and downloaded Bloopair, but I have a question : how may I connect two Joy-Cons as one controller ? When I try to sync them at the same time, it just gives me two controllers.

Sorry if the question was already asked, I'm just curious.

Thank you in advance and have a nice day 👋🏼

You can only connect them as individual controllers, not two as one

any way to change the button config for the xbox controller? I have one of the 8bitdo GBros adapters and the XInput mode swaps the A B X Y buttons whenever it is in that.

Also if theres a way to change the buttons for ONLY that controller. That would be helpful.

xbox yes, but I don't know if that controller will be any different.

edit: btw, mod that swaps the buttons X, Y, and B, A is on this page above.

    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
