I am trying to run SMW with a 360 controller but the emulator won't map any of the inputs I do. But the controller works in every other program/game I've ran it on. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here any help is appreciated!!

which is "every other"? bizhawk certainly supports 360 controllers. try deleting your config.ini file. have you tried pressing every button? sometimes people don't know which buttons do what. by default bizhawk will have only bound controller 1's buttons. If you've got 2 attached, then only 1 is being listened to. You can go rebind the controls any time you want, as with virtually any game program

Thank you, some reason deleting the .ini file and restarting it worked it now lets me map the input keys. thanks again never expected a fix this fast :)

Another thing to consider, unless someone has fixed it recently, BizHawk only polls for controllers when you open it. So if you plug in a controller while BizHawk is running, it won't be usable until you restart the emulator.

I use BizHawk with an XBOX360 controller and have never had any problems.
