      Hello, sorry if this is a dumb post, but it seems to me that a lot of games are using the Y button for jump instead of A. Is this intentional?

      I’ve configured my retro arch config, and the A button is the one I’m pressing (for example, street fighter medium kick works great). But then a lot of older games seem to be defaulting to the jump button being Y, which is surprising to me.

      Is this working as intended, or did I mess up?

      My layout is
      Y X
      B A

      Thanks!

          @lostless yes lr-mame2003. Thanks, I will look that up. I was a bit surprised by this behavior and haven’t found much info on it yet
