Reply To: Beginner-level tutorial for running NES controllers off GPIO

[shaneriley]

I’m in serious need of help with getting the NES controller to work using the GPIO pins. I noticed that when I shut down the Pi, it gives a kernel panic. Could it be something related to that? Does this with or without the controller port hooked up to the GPIO.

I also can’t seem to get an installation of RetroPie with jstest, so I can’t see if the controller via GPIO is working.
