            do this

            sudo pico /boot/cmdline.txt

            add this to the end (make sure you make a space from the last letter)

            usbhid.quirks=0x0079:0x0006:0x40

            press ctrl+x to save and exit

            you will need to reboot as well

            sudo shutdown -r now

              To be honest just search up meleu's RetroPie-joystick-selection https://github.com/meleu/RetroPie-joystick-selection/blob/master/README.md
              It is really straightforward and easy to use.

                i have the same zero day controller that parameter needs to go to the kernel to stop strange things happening when using two of them no more setup is really needed beyond that,

                            ah ok if all is well in emulation station youll be fine its a mame issue

                            i think you might have accidently remapped some buttons seeing your menu is going on when your in mame from the other post did you delete the cfg files to reset mame to defaults ?

                              make sure mame isint running

                              rm /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro/mame2003/mame2003/cfg/*

                              this is assuming your roms are in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro/mame2003/

                              start mame again

                                    do you have ftp access the forum took the spaces away but do me a favor

                                    type ls /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/arcade/mame2003/cfg

                                    if there is files in there do a
                                    rm /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/arcade/mame2003/cfg/*

                                    if they arent there they must be in the mame 2003 with spaces
