    I use Emulation Station on a stock A1UP/6 button control panel, what I did is within retroarch set hold down P1 to bring up the menu, then it's back > up > enter to exit the rom/core back into ES. Sounds complicated but it quickly becomes muscle memory, and that way you can still play 6 player games =)

    Ok, this looks great, the instructions are easy to follow, I have modded several things over the years, and I am not computer saavy or a tech geek in any way, shape or form. There are a couple of mods I just can't perform, unfortunately, this is one of them. I only purchased this Arcade 1Up unit just to do this hack, and after about 26 attempts, I still can't get it to work. I get stuck at the very first one each time. I quadruple checked that the power is not connected, the switch is in the off position inside the cabinet, the USB C to USB cable is connected correctly ( I tried 10 different cables) and can't do the second step to install the mystery to PCB. I was able to purchase a USB pre-loaded stick for my Playstation Mini and SNES mini, I have not found one for this unit. At this point, I am willing to do that before I smash this My Arcade 1Up unit and possibly take a hammer to my pc.

The C ones don't stay in great, but they fit. So idk, must be the unzipped files I may have to look at to make sure I did correctly.
