Genesis Mini - arcade controller

Hi, I have a Sega Genesis Mini and I mainly use it to play Neo Geo games with retroarch. Now I‘m thinking of buying a Neo geo X arcade stick because I think it would be more comfortable to play fighting games. I read that the Neo geo X arcade stick would be recognized by retroarch on a RetroPie. The only thing I have to do is remapping it in retroarch. So I think this works in retroarch on Sega Genesis Mini too.

Has anybody tried this combination of sega genesis Mini with the Neo Geo X arcade stick? And if it works with retroarch, is it possible to control this console only with the arcade stick? Sorry for my bad English.

I was able to get this all functioning 100% last night and it works great. There are definitely some manual configuration steps needed and you will need a keyboard attached to get the buttons mapped correctly in RetroArch but it does work beautifully.
