On Linux, that’s usually the case. Finding the config file is the problem. I suspect that’s why emulation Station isn’t working. I don’t know where that’s installed, but I’d assume there’s another configuration file for ES. It’s probably in the home directory, ~. maybe ~/.emulation_station or or ~/.ES. I don’t recall, but there will be a file structure similar to the RetroArch tree.
In either case, it would be very kind to post the full solution for the next person.
I’ve never had issues with the 8bitdo Controllers on rpi, Bluetooth or wired, but I found a thread where others solved the same problem. Looks like that particular controller isn’t perfectly supported and you need to update xpad and a configuration file.

You can build one out of an Arduino.
A sketchy USB device from Alibaba with 0 documentation is significantly less safe than grabbing a ROM, which are widely available and have known file hashes. The security risk alone from a no name USB device is probably not worth it unless there’s a save file you reeeeeeeeally care about, as another user mentioned.
yeah. find the
