I’m using the SNESDev-Rpi (also PetRockBlog) to handle that. The link is here and it describes how to download build and install it as a service so you no longer need a keyboard: https://github.com/petrockblog/SNESDev-RPi.

    Here are a few extras though to use it with the PS button:

  1. Move line 331 in src/main.c (initializePads( &pads );) to under line 340 (if (pollPads) {) to squash a bug.
  2. Add these two lines under line 333 (if (pollButton) {)
    1. bcm2835_gpio_fsel(buttonPin, BCM2835_GPIO_FSEL_INPT);
    2. bcm2835_gpio_set_pud(buttonPin, BCM2835_GPIO_PUD_UP);
  3. Make sure the SNESDev-Rpi is set to start up in mode 2 (poll button only).

I have attached my main.c for reference, but it does a couple other things (changes esc to one button press and shutdown to 3).
