    Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or missing an enable somewhere, but none of the game controller I plug into the usb work.

    I've tried an xbox 360 wired controller, an xbox 360 wireless controller (this uses an xbox360 wireless dongle for pc), a logitech cordless precision controller (also uses a usb dongle for pc). The wireless controllers seem to be connecting fine to the usb dongle attached to the x9s, but none of the 'gamepad supported' games work with the controllers.

    I wouldn't think this requires rooting (ROOT_via_LAN_5.1.1?), so how can the Input Method (IME?) switch to the game controller plugged in? Do I need an OTG cable and/or be plugged into a specific usb port?

    HI
    about the Xbox controller, because it has some encryption information, and it must install the XBOX driver, we have not it yet.

    Had the same issue with my X9S and an Xbox 360 controller. Turns out some controllers need a specific input mapper app like Tincore Keymapper or Gamepad Tester to get recognized properly on Android-based boxes. Also worth trying a different USB port — the X9S can be picky about which port handles input devices. No rooting needed in most cases. Give that a shot and see if it helps. And I have one question can we use sites like: pcsx2bios.org to get the bios file from?
