I finally setup RetroArch

I finally setup RetroArch this morning and I have to say that with your tutorial that it was beyond simple so far I have SNES and Game Boy Advance working. I haven't setup the controllers yet (I have to leave to take my uncle to chemo in a few minutes so I will have to tinker later. I'm just amazed that something that I've been dreading and thinking wasn't worth the effort worked so quickly. It is crazy that they use X and Z that is so unintuitive (which turns out isn't an actual word but should definitely be one) who would figure that out. Anyway thanks for the lesson Jason.

If you have a 360 / PS3 / PS4 controller plugged in (the PS3 and PS4 would essentially be "emulated" 360 pads with the software), it should find it automatically and it is a bit more intuitive. I have more tutorials up dealing with RA on the channel, and one for Sega Saturn is going up this Friday. Even if the cores / systems aren't your cup of tea, they all have stuff in them that can be useful in other systems. For example PS1 and Saturn are super similar.

I don't know if it's on here but Retropie (which is AWESOME on a Pi2 BTW) has a graphic mapping of all types of controllers and how they are best mapped as a Retropad in Retroarch. I found it helpful. https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/RetroArch-Configuration
