In Recalbox, the shortcuts are, for the most part, a combination of keys involving a key named HOTKEY (
HK) which must first be defined in the controller's settings options.The names used for the buttons are those of the Super Nintendo controller (the
L1,R1,L2,R2,L3andR3buttons are based on any recent controller).See this page for details.
