'remove the android.hardware.gamepad feature from the AndroidManifest.
Unlike other features is does not have "optional" meaning, once it is
declared, Play Store assumes the gamepad is required, and such badge may
confuse your users. This feature was targeted primarily to game
developers, that is why it is a bit confusing for people working on a
regular applications.'

Logical :)
