Part	Description
<port>	Required. This is the port the controller is plugged into the console. 0 is Controller/Player 1 and 1 is Controller/Player 2.

Notes: If you're using a 3 button controller, it's not safe to assume that the upper bits will be cleared as they may be set based on button combinations.
