      Hi. Is any way to configure my joystick to have that second button? Some games, like Hero, need it. I tested with a Snes30 and a generic PC controller and all buttons are mapped to a single fire button. I was only able to use the top side button pressing the left shift of a keyboard. Thanks.

        @spectreman not with the default (lr)-atari800 emulator, you can try kat5200 or a modded version of atari800

          The standalone Atari800 emulator only allows access to the second button via keyboard input. This being the case, you can also key map your controller using an outside mapping solution.
