So kind of messy, but there are ways to get these controllers to work with Big Blue AND the emulators. You can set it up to use it as a dpad… and this will work for Big Blue menu navigation… but then once in game, it won’t work unless you’ve set it up with the emulators. Maximus Arcade is Windows-based software that allows you to relive thousands of classic games and creates seamless interaction with multiple arcade and. The reason for the dpad issue with Big Blue is that 8bitdo sets up the dpad as a left analog stick by default. Should be able to set it up once, and be done with it… but it means button mapping isn’t correct out of the gate as it is if you set the controller up as an xinput device. The caveat being that you’ll need to remap your buttons and dpad in any emulators that you’ve previously set up to work with wireless xbox360 controllers or xinput devices. If you set the 8bitdo controller up as an Android device (dinput), the device will work great in Big Blue and you’ll be able to use the dpad to navigate the menus. This works great for any MAME games that have been set up before, but doesn’t work at all for the d-pad buttons in Big Blue. If you start the pairing process with their controllers in the suggested Windows mode (start + X), it sets up the controller as an xinput device. Wanted to reply as I’ve found a (sort of) workaround with the 8bitdo bluetooth controllers and Big Blue.
