Hi guys... I posted this inside the retroarch topic but still haven't figured out a solution...
so I bought the HORI Nintendo Switch Split Pad Pro controller (https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Machina-Ergonomic-Controller-Handheld/dp/B07T5QKKVP) and it works great on the switch... but the problem is... I load retroarch (1.8) and navigate great in the menus, but when I go to play any emulated game, the joystick is not recognized. The only thing I can do is press HOME and backout. I even rebinded succesfully the joystick in the Retroarch menus before running the game and the same thing happens... It works perfectly with the original joycons (which are safely stored far away from the switch itself).
again, I made sure the joycons were off... then, went to the controller menu and unpaired them.. then I deleted retroarch.cfg and started up retroarch again.. same results... everything works in the menus, I'm able to bind the Split Pad Pro controller, and then nothing.. when starting any game in emulation the only buttons that work are the "screenshot" and "home" buttons...
when I start a game in retroarch I get a message in the bottom of the screen in yellow that reads "100% Switch controller configured in port #0".. then the "0" changes to 2, 1, 5, 4, 7, 6, 3, and then the message disappears and I can only touch the "home" button to go to the Switch main menu...
Any ideas what I can do to solve this? these controllers are great for everything else! Thanks,
Chale
