      Hello:

      I am trying to get my controller to work with the NES Arkanoid - US version - but I can't. The paddle will not move to the left or right when I use my dpad. Is there some way to remap it - so that it works. I have tried 4 different versions of this game and they all behave the same way. This site indicates the game came with its own controller with a wheel to make it move left & right.

      Pi Model or other hardware: 4B+ 8GB
      Power Supply: LABISTS Raspberry Pi 4 Power Supply 5.1V 3A
      RetroPie Version Used: retropie-buster-4.7.1
      USB Devices connected: Logitech F310 Controller, wireless USB keyboard
      Error messages received: none
      Verbose log: runcommand.log https://pastebin.com/7rnZiHzx
      Emulator: lr-fceumm

        @2stupid2dothis When Port 1 and Port 2 device types are set to "Auto" in Quick Menu -> Controls (RetroArch menu), the emulator puts a regular NES controller in port 1 and an Arkanoid controller in port 2. You can use a mouse as the Arkanoid controller in this configuration.

        If you want to use a controller's D-pad instead, you can set Port 1 and Port 2 device types to "Gamepad."

        I am also known as "StormedBubbles"
