The idea is to use 2 or more physical controllers simultaneously to control 1 emulated device.
Ex. 2 switch joycons making a whole controller.
I imagine this will have a small
impact on the UI for the pads screen.

*Special note:
This request does not request for multiple buttons to be assigned to 1 emulated button.

Turns out with SDL this is a bad example as they just map the device as Nintendo Switch Joy-Con (L/R)

Ex. 2 switch joycons making a whole controller.

So SDL automatically merges the 2 joycons by default.
But this feature request is for 2 separate devices to be used as 1 pad. And now I don't see any reason why this might be wanted.

I second this since it's impossible to use Guide/PS button with Steam Input (the input is just sent to Steam which opens the overlay). There aren't enough buttons to map it to something else.
But it could be mapped to a keyboard + controller combo in Steam.

Hi @Darkhost1999
This feature would be very useful in playing games like Brothers a tale of two sons. With this feature the game can be played in multiplayer style.
Xbox natively offers this feature in copilot / Xbox controller assist. This feature is helpful when playing with a partner who is noob. Also this will greatly enhance the accessibility side of things of rpcs3 emulator.
