I'm not sure about that, is there a host that puts the 8bitdo into pairing mode as soon as you plug it in? I've always had to press the button.l, at some point I could maybe try sending random packets to it and see what it does.

I'm not sure, you could try the Pico firmware and see. If there's an issue with that board, it would be routing for gpio 0 and 1 not being impedance matched, so if it doesn't work you could also try putting 27 or 22 ohm (or around that) resistors in series on the data +/- lines before the USB A host port and see if that helps

I've posted a new version of the firmware, here's a list of some things that were added - PlayStation 3 support - PlayStation Classic support (the mini console) - CDC device mode for easier debugging of USB host stuff And controllers I've added support for - Switch Pro - Switch wired - N64 USB gamepads (may need to be updated to account for different brands) - PlayStation Classic Here's the link: https://github.com/wiredopposite/OGX-Mini/releases/tag/v0.2.0

It's all good I didn't take it that way, I dug out an old n64 usb controller I had forgotten about, i'm not sure if they'd all behave similarly though. I have that, switch pro/wired, and psclassic controllers working so I'm gonna post an update this weekend. My ps3 controller gets here friday so with some luck I'll figure that out quickly and it can be included.

Hey thanks and thank you for making it possible with your work. That does sound like a better idea, I have a 3rd party ps3 controller that uses xbox 360 pid/vids for whatever reason and a wireless adapter that seems to change ids and report structure based on what it's plugged into, so issues are already cropping up from using those. I'll have to go back and see what can be done for ps/switch controllers.

Ah okay, I dont have any but I'd imagine they're just generic HID, that wouldn't be much work to support. I'm not sure how they would map to something like an Xbox controller though, that might be a bit wonky

I do have switch pro controller support mostly working, real pro controllers seem to disconnect after a while, but I believe those cheap wireless adapters that work for the switch don't care about whatever exchange/command I'm missing to keep it connected. They seem to work fine, so I might just post an update with that if I can't get everything 100% working within the next couple of days. I also have a Microsoft Xbox One/Series wireless dongle coming in the mail so I'll see if that one works as well.

With the Adafruit Feather board I linked, you plug the USB C end into the Xbox with an Xbox to USB adapter, then your controller into the USB type A port. If you wanted to use the normal Pi Pico board, you'd need to attach another USB port to it for your controller, here's a diagram of that Firmware for both boards is in the Releases section of the Github. There's no wireless functionality on either of these boards so a wireless adapter like an 8bitdo or the Xbox 360 PC adapter is needed for that

If it presents itself and acts as an xbox controller it might just work, i've not tried yet but I'll pick one up to test. Once I add switch pro support, a bunch of those cheapo wireless adapters for switch should work too.

Honestly I hadn't thought of that, it's a good idea. The Xbox device driver would need to be changed in order for the controller to show up with a memory card in it, but I'd imagine it's possible. I'll give some more thought to it and see what I can do, atm my focus is really adding support for as many devices as possible, along with gamepad emulation for PS3. The ogx360_t4 firmware can be compiled to emulate a Steel Battalion controller, as of now my firmware cannot, that and the memory card are the differences. I'm not sure how popular the Steel Battalion support was or if there's a big demand for that, if there is it wouldn't be a ton of work to get that going, most of the code was written already for the ogx360_t4. The main reason for this project is how simple the rp2040 is to use and design hardware for in this context, it takes care of usb device and host duties by itself for $0.80 + the $0.50 flash, as opposed to the way more expensive atmega32u4 + level shifter + max usb controller setup, or the $30+ teensy4.1. There's also plenty of room to expand the program, which the atmega chip doesn't offer.

Thanks, I'm gonna go through that tomorrow and start adding IDs. That list has me wondering if those ps4/3 wireless dongles would work, I just ordered one

I've written some firmware for the RP2040, thanks to a bunch of TinyUSB drivers created by Ryzee119 and the OpenStickCommunity, that supports pretty much anything the original OGX360 supports, apart from the 360 keyboard for Steel Battalion. On top of those I've added Sony Dualshock 4 and Dualsense support, and will be working on Switch Pro/Dualshock 3 once I get my hands on those. By default it's setup for the Adafruit Feather RP2040 USB Host board, but it can be compiled for the normal Pico as well, though that doesn't have a second USB port for your controller so you'll have to solder one to GPIO 0/1 (data +/-). The firmware can be compiled and used for - Original Xbox - Nintendo Switch - Xinput (not 360, due to the security chip) These are all the devices that are supported currently: - Original Xbox Duke and S controllers - Wired Xbox 360 controllers - Xbox 360 wireless PC adapter (clone and Microsoft, syncs 1 controller) - Xbox One/Series/Elite controllers - Dualshock 4 (PS4) - Dualsense (PS5) - 8bitdo v1 and v2 wireless adapters I've posted source code and compiled .uf2 files on Github: https://github.com/wiredopposite/OGX-Mini I'd also add that Playstation controllers are recognized by USB vendor and device ID, I'm not positive if there's a better way to do that, but those need to be manually added to the program to work. I need more of these IDs so if you're aware of some list somewhere, or your aftermarket Playstation 4/5 controller isn't working, just give me the VID/PID and I'll add them. I also need these for Playstation 3 controllers once I get around to adding support for those. This is the Adafruit board, no soldering is required for this, you just need a way to connect USB-C to your Xbox's controller port:

I'm wondering if others are having the same issue and if they've managed to fix it, I updated to v2.0 via the downloader and now fanart is not showing up no matter the view/resources settings. Edit: Tried a fresh install and still have the problem

What model is the Xbox?

Thanks for all this work, I'm gonna be putting one together later today. Did you ever figure out any of the ps4 and xbox controller issues or are those just inherent to the blueretro firmware?
