Hi there, I recently bought an everdrive and a second controller (an unofficial one) for my nes, I wanted to play the SMB1 2players hack with a friend, but my controllers dont work when both of them are connected, I can connect the first (any of both) and it works, then i connect the other one and it seems that it pushes select and start for no reason, and then, does not allow any Controller to work. Does anyone know why this happens?

I don't know why it happens. i clean and restore consoles and I would use 91% isopropyl alcohol and a toothbrush if you don't have any your pharmacy should have it. Just dip a toothbrush (preferably unused) and rub it against the controller ports if it doesn't do anything let me know!

Does the player 2 work alone?

Yes, I already opened it, when I connect the Player 1 or P2 controller only, it works, but when I connect the other controller, both of them stop working

I'm sure 92% is fine. Do you clean consoles or something?
