retropie - how to connect and configure GPIO buttons to raspberry Pi 3 using GPIOnext

[@leighghunt]

Thank you - I sorted out my arcade a couple of years ago and never got two player working and gave up - just had a second go during lockdown, and this video helped me figure it out. Many thanks!

[@JesterGP3]

This was a huge help! Purchased a used Icade and am trying to get it loaded with Retropie. They automatically have connectors for the GPIO pins. Made way more sense to connect these directly than use an encoder. Realized this was the second one of your videos I was watching...got yourself a subscriber 💪

[@bencampbell4053]

Thank you so much!! So much easier than screwing around with a teensy and much more compact, perfect for my portable RetroPie setup. I had a little hiccup and had to re-config the controller once or twice, not sure what the issue was. I didn't change anything just tried it again and it decided to work. Not a big deal though.

thank you, so so so so so much for making this video, i was originally using adafruit's retrogame software to detect button input but for some reason pin 3,5 and 40 weren't detecting any input, after following this guide they now all work and so my portable console I'm making should now be able to play n64 games, all thanks to you, thank you very much for making this tutorial, have a wonderful day.

Add more buttons as you like you can add l1r1 l2r2 with similar principle, check the gpio pin outs to know which pins U can use

For analogue controller you will need a Arduino which will connect as a USB not gpio.

Hello, I have a setup with 4 push buttons on a breadboard connected my the gpio of my pi zero W. I have a python script that is able to retrieve the inputs so I think everything is wired up correctly. But when I run "gpionext config" and try to configure a virtual controller. I am stuck at the "Hold button" step. It seems like gpionext is unable to retrieve the inputs from my push buttons and I can't figure out why. Any idea ?

I could control the emulator only with the USB keyboard. I have followed strictly everything, to emphasize again. The only difference was my setup - I have 2 joysticks (equal to 8 buttons) and 6 buttons per player (X,Y,A,B,L,R) plus three more buttons (start, coin player1 and coin player2). Also I did connect all cables to the GPIO connector before to start the procedure - does that make a difference? Do I need to fully disconnect the USB keyboard before to start the emulator?
