In Ryujinx, navigate to Options > Settings > Input tab and select which controller you are configuring. Remember: if you are in docked mode, configure Player 1. If you are in Handheld mode, configure the Handheld controller.

Connect your controller via USB cable

Plug a micro-USB charging cable into the top of the controller and plug the other end into your PC. If you're using an Xbox Series X|S, Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2, or Xbox Adaptive Controller, connect your controller by using a USB-C cable.

Try resetting your controller, or if you have more than one, try resetting one controller at a time. Detach the Joy-Con controllers from the side of the device. Take one of the controllers and press the small, pin-sized Sync button on the top or side, then press any other button on the controller to restart it.

Select "Controllers" → "Change Grip/Order" on the HOME Menu. Once the screen pictured here appears, hold the SYNC Button on the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller that you'd like to pair. When the message "Paired" appears on the screen, pairing is complete. Press the A Button to end the process.

On the back of your controller, you will find a tiny hole – the reset button is inside this hole. Use a small, unfolded paper clip (or something similar) to press and hold the reset button for at least five seconds. Your controller should now have been reset.

From the HOME Menu select System Settings, then navigate to Controllers and Sensors. Select Update Controllers to begin updating the controller's firmware. If multiple controllers are paired to the console, the firmware will be updated one controller at a time.

Surprisingly, the Switch supports controllers for other game consoles, including the DualShock 4 and many Xbox controllers. Most controllers that work with the PS4 and Xbox One are compatible with Nintendo's console, including arcade-style fight sticks like the Mayflash F300.
